Kalahari melon seed oil is derived from a cousin of watermelon, and is sometimes referred to as "wild watermelon." We love kalahari oil because it's lightweight, fast-absorbing, non-pore clogging, and great for all skin types. It's said to dissolve excess sebum while increasing the skin's elasticity, and is an excellent choice for oil cleansing.
Currently, we have a cold-pressed, virgin kalahari oil in stock. It's rich in omega 6 & 9 fatty acids to repair and regenerate the skin, as well as antioxidants like vitamins A, C, and E. It has a slightly nutty scent and a neutral, yellow color.
Sunflower seed oil is one of our favorites, because it has such a soothing, comforting texture. This organic, USA grown, expeller pressed oil is high in both oleic and linoleic acids, which means it has a rich texture that will soothe the driest skin, but it's also non-pore clogging. Sunflower is a perfect choice for skin that struggles with both dryness and breakouts.
Sunflower is rich in skin-repairing vitamins E, A, and B, and it soaks in quickly without leaving a greasy sheen. While its rich texture doesn't quite have the necessary glide for cleansing, it makes a wonderful fast-absorbing body oil or facial serum. It has a neutral, pale-yellow color, and little to no scent.
Hemp seed oil is an extremely lightweight, fast-absorbing "dry" oil that will not clog pores, which makes it an excellent starter-oil for oily and acne-prone skin. Hemp seed oil is rich in anti-inflammatory, skin repairing omegas 3, 6, and 9.
This organic, cold-pressed oil has a deep, greenish brown hue and a slightly earthy, nutty aroma. It does not contain any CBD or THC.
Grapeseed oil is a deeply penetrating and fast-absorbing oil that has a nice glide for oil cleansing or massage. In addition to nourishing fatty-acids and high levels of vitamin E, C, and D, grapeseed oil is said to be rich in antioxidants called polyphenols, which help repair free-radical damage, even skin tone, and are also said to lend grapeseed oil toning and antimicrobial properties. Grapeseed oil is another excellent choice for both dry/mature and acne prone skin.
This wild-crafted expeller-pressed oil has a light green color and a subtly sweet and earthy wine-like aroma.
Another extremely light and fast-absorbing "dry" oil, rosehip seed oil is one of our absolute favorites for both skin and body care, due to its high levels of skin-repairing antioxidants like vitamins A, C, B, and E. Rosehip also contains high levels of linoleic acid (omega-6) which is said to help with hyperpigmentation and balancing acne-prone skin. A wonderfully healing choice for all skin types.
Currently, we have a wild-crafted, cold pressed oil in stock from Chile, which has a vibrant light-orange color, and a very subtle sweet-earthy aroma.
Evening primrose seed oil has a luscious but light texture, with serious skin-softening properties, due to to its high amounts of omega 6 (gamma linoleic acid, or GLA.) The anti-inflammatory properties of GLA are said to help reduce redness, making evening primrose an excellent choice for dry, sensitive, and mature skin.
The organic, cold-pressed evening primrose oil we have in stock currently has a light orange color, and a neutral scent.
Avocado seed oil has a rich, but fast-absorbing texture and is considered to be high-oleic, which makes it a good choice for healing and soothing dry skin. However, it does not clog pores, and is also a good choice for acne-prone skin. Avocado is full of anti-inflammatory antioxidants like vitamins A, C, K, and B6 (niacin,) as well as minerals like potassium and magnesium.
The organic, cold-pressed avocado oil we have in stock is a pale yellow/green color, with no scent.
Argan oil is a lightweight, non-pore-clogging oil with a somewhat slippery texture, which makes it a good choice for both cleansing, and nourishing oily and acne-prone skin. Argan is rich in skin-repairing fatty acids, and anti-inflammatory polyphenols and vitamin E.
The organic, cold-pressed extra virgin argan oil we have in stock is a pale yellow color with a slightly early-sweet scent.
Red raspberry seed oil is a very lightweight, fast-absorbing "dry" oil, that's perfectly balancing for all skin types. It's very high in antioxidants llike vitamins A, and E, which scavenge free-radicals to prevent and repair damaged skin. It also contains an antioxidant called ellagic acid, which is said to lend red raspberry seed oil antibacterial properties, while soothing inflammatory conditions like eczema.
The cold-pressed, virgin, unrefined red raspberry seed oil we have in stock is a medium yellow color, with a slightly sweet, astringent aroma.
Jojoba oil is actually a liquid wax, which closely resembles the texture of the oil our skin produces naturally. It has a silky, slippery texture that's perfect for cleansing and massage. Jojoba oil is non-pore clogging and balancing for all skin types, and is rich in anti-inflammatory, skin-healing B-vitamins, and E.
The wild-crafted, expeller-pressed, unrefined jojoba oil we have in stock is a golden yellow orange, with no scent.
Blueberry seed oil is a very lightweight, fast absorbing "dry" oil that won't clog pores, and is packed with skin-repairing antioxidants, omega-3 and 6 fatty acids, and vitamin E.
The cold-pressed, unrefined, virgin blueberry seed oil that we have in stock currently is a deep purple color with a very strong, but fresh and fruity fragrance. This oil can range from green to blue in color.
You have the option to add in a single essential oil, at a potent but safe 1.6% dilution. These are our favorite essential oils for skin, body, or hair application.
Tea tree (organic) Tea tree oil is one of our favorites for controlling acne breakouts due to its antibacterial, antiseptic properties. It has a woodsy, medicinal, fresh, but slightly spicy scent. This is also a good one for treating flaky scalp due to its anti-fungal properties.

Carrot seed Carrot seed is another favorite skin-repairing essential oil that's great for mature skin. Derived not from the carrots we eat, but daucus carota, also known as wild carrot or bishop's, or Queen Anne's lace. It has a strong, dry, earthy, herbal-woodsy scent. Carrot seed is also said to add shine and thickness in hair care formulations.

I did an Evening Primrose/Clary sage combo, and it feels amazing going on my skin. Its super moisturizing, but very lightweight feeling on my face. The smell is strong, but not in a bad way, and fades fairly quickly.
Yes, this is such a good combo! So glad it's working for you! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
I’ve been using the carrier oils at night after cleansing with the oil and they’ve been such a lovely addition to my skincare routine! I really feel like quickly they’ve softened and brightened my skin. Adding the essential oil makes them smell and feel extra special. ❤️
Oh, that does sound lovely! I'm so glad you're loving what they do for your skin. Thanks for the review!
