> This balm bar does not contains essential oils: it is suitable for all.
Zoom on the ingredients:
> Soy wax is a natural non-GMO vegetable wax that restores the effectiveness of ingredients at low temperatures; it balances the texture and gives it its suppleness: it thus melts delicately at the temperature of the skin.
> Avocado oil: the hero of dry skins, it softens, moisturizes and brings tonicity and vitality to delicate skins. Rich in monounsaturated fatty acids, vitamin A, B, D, E and K, it brings its benefits and protects the skin without weighing it down. Our avocado oil is made by us from organic avocado. The flesh is dried and then pressed to produce an oil of extraordinary quality!
> Arrowroot: this root is used to texture the balm to reduce the oily texture. The balms have a "dry oil" texture very nice, which allows to dress quickly and not to "shine" a thousand lights :-)
> Shea butter: called "the gold of women" in Africa, raw Shea butter deeply moisturizes dry and delicate skins. Very rich in fatty acids and vitamins A, D, E and F, its moisturizing and protective properties take care of your skin.
> Supercritical CO2 Extract of Rosemary: This valuable extract acts as a preservative and antioxidant of oils. The balms are destined to be handled in the hands, this natural preservative guarantees a durable product for about 6 months after the first use. The little plus (or biiiiig) plus: this high-tech ingredient has soothing and purifying properties that protect the skin from daily aggression. It is a precious raw material for anti-aging care: a real gift that is very useful in this ColdCream by Ibaïna!
Some recommendations:
- Ibaïna solid balms are made in Mauritius: they are studied not to melt at ambient temperatures, even high one! It is the external temperature of the human body (36 °) that gently warms the balm, so it must be slowly passed over the skin (to facilitate its warming) and on the edge (the application surface is thinner). The balms are solid, but apply them without pressing strongly: it is not useful! You can warm them in your hands if desired or in case of very cold ambient temperature.
- Do not leave your balms exposed to the direct heat of the sun or on a radiator! If the balm melts, it is quite possible to "remould" it by melting it gently in a bain-marie (maximum temperature of 39 °) and then mold it in the container of your choice.
We hope you enjoy this product and its INCI!
