Transparancy and Science
As an ‘oil and fat formulation specialist’ I have developed a preference for specific ingredients. Oils and waxes are so-called ‘fatty acid esters’: constructs of natural building blocks that can be assembled in many different ways, creating great diversity in terms of benefit and feel. I have developed a specific interest in flower waxes, in butters from tropical plants and in seed oils from healthy fruits., and in how to combine these effectively in my products. I could talk for hours about how different these are and have you smell, feel, and even taste these raw ingredients.

Plant oils and waxes can be considered great natural health ingredients. However, many herbs are also packed with bioactive ingredients that don’t necessarily dissolve in oil. Think about herbal extracts such as tea and coffee with strong antioxidant activity. Or anti-inflammatory chamomile and calendula extracts traditionally used to soothe and heal. Recent research has indeed revealed that many individual substances from these extracts are very potent actives, especially when applied topically. Since humans have been using them for ages we can rest assured that they are generally safe, something that cannot easily be said about most modern synthetic drugs.
