Andiroba Borage

Andiroba Borage boosts immunities, reduces inflammation, increases circulation, treats lumps, bumps and tumors while it stops itching related to skin irritations.

Sscientific tests conducted to check the potential beneficial effects of the andiroba has demonstrated conclusively the bark has a bactericidal action, that the flowers act as anti-tumor agents, and that the heartwood has anti-fungal or fungicidal properties. The possible anti-carcinogenic properties of the andiroba have also been probed during tests at the Museum of Medicinal Plants in Macapa, Brazil, this study in 1993 suggested that andiroba may indeed possess some properties that are anti-carcinogenic.

Active Ingredients:

Andiroba Oil (carapa guianensis) Amazon rain forest tree that grows to over 100 feet and produces medicinal leaves, bark and nuts. High in limonoids and myristic acid as well as omega rich oils that are most beneficial for skin health and healing; many other properties include anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anti-parasitic, anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-insects!!. Andiroba reduces pain, relaxes muscles.

Borage Oil (borago officinalis) Has the potential to suppress tumor growth. It is gentle and powerful, silky smooth and will impart a fresh dewy glow as well as improve cellular metabolism by stimulating skin cells with unusually high concentration of essential fatty acids (particularly gamma and alpha linoleic) and other bio-active phyto-nutrients.

Aloe Vera (aloe barbadensis miller) Aloe Vera is a skin moisturizer that is high in anti-oxidants. A member of the lily family, aloe gel contains 20 minerals, 18 amino acids and 12 vitamins. Abundant glyco-nutrients relieve irritation and accelerate repair of damaged skin.

Coconut Oil (cocos nucifera) This is what coconut oil really and truly smells like! It has the most intoxicating coconut fragrance one could ask for. A free radical scavenger with vitamins, enzymes, proteins that support cellular structure. New research identifies many valuable properties in fresh young coconuts which are what we use.

Shea Butter (African Shea Karite) A tree that must be at least 15 years old to grow nuts from which come the butter that heals so many skin conditions without side effects. Restores elasticity, absorbs easily (no clogging problems), goes deeply, and is high in Vitamin A and E for healing and Vitamin F for protection. Contains high levels of cinnamic acid, a natural sun screen.

Base Ingredients:

Sweet Almond Oil (prunus amygdalus dulcis) is rich in minerals, vitamins and essential fatty acids.. An excellent carrier oil, and widely used in organic cosmetics as it naturally promotes soft and radiant skin while delivering other nutrients deep into the skin

Bees Wax (cera flava) Stabilizing emulsifier for our treatments that is protective and supports elastin and collagen. Firms and tones. Helps skin retain moisture, reduces fine lines.

Rice Bran Oil (oryza sativa) Rice Bran Oil appears to be the richest source of tocopherols and tocotrienols (a unique antioxidant known as gamma oryzanol), plus high quantities of phytosterols, polyphenols and squalene which are high potency EFA’s and therefore a rich source of antioxidants and micronutrients. Light oil from the rice kernel is one of the best free radical scavengers. Ferulic acid further increases anti-oxidant activity as it absorbs UV rays and thereby blocks some of the negative effects of sun exposure.

How to use:

Smooth the cream on affected areas until remediated.  Use as often as you like.
