Jojoba oil prices increase.

Over the past 12 months or so we have noticed the price of Jojoba oil sky rocket.  Prices have not only just doubled per litre but infact tripled over the last few months.  Now we are having to move from supplier to supplier each month just to even source Jojoba oil and hope that there will not be a time where we have exhausted all resources. 

Why is there a shortage? Well we are not sure is the honest reply, on enquiries with suppliers we are told that there seems to be a world wide shortage, why and for how long is anyones guess.  The good thing about Jojoba oil though is that it has a long shelf life, so if you do purchase any, while you can, you know it will keep for some time.  Store out of sunlight and high temperatures and it will keep for 2-3 years.  Remember if it solidifies bring back into room temperature.

We have tried to keep our prices low but unfortunately we have had no choice but to increase again to £4.99 per 100ml this month.

NEW IN - Rosehip oil

This month we have added a new carrier oil - Rosehip seed oil.

Rosehip is an easily absorbed oil and so  penetrates easily into the skin without leaving it greasy. 

Rosehip seed oil contains Vitamin A, a high amount of essential fatty acids and Vitamin E, which helps to delay the effects of skin ageing, assists with cell regeneration, and promotes collagen and elastin levels to increase, resulting in firmer, smoother, and more youthful skin with greater elasticity.   Apply it directly onto the skin or add essential oils.

Rosehip seed oil has been used successfully to treat the following skin problems:

    * Stretch marks
    * UV damage from overexposure to the sun
    * Scars from surgery, burns, and acne
    * Eczema
    * Psoriasis
    * Wrinkles and premature skin aging
    * Hyper-pigmentation
    * Dermatitis
    * Burns and sunburns
    * Age spots
    * Brittle nails
    * Dry and damaged hair

Why not mix it with a little Jojoba oil or Wheatgerm oil for extra nourishment for the skin.

We have added 2 new fragrances to our massage oils and sea scrubs 

Toffee and Wild summer berries.  

We are always adding new fragrances, but sometimes it's difficult to narrow it down with so many to chose from.  What fragrances would you like to see in a salt scrub or fragrance body oil?
