Key Ingredients

Bilberry
Bilberry is made from a little blue berry that is related to blueberries and cranberries. Bilberry is a powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant.  Its strong antioxidant composition makes it an excellent free radical scavenger, which helps combat the cell damage that leads to premature aging. 

Lemon and Orange
These bright and zesty citrus fruits have long had a prominent role in skin care. Lemons are high in natural fruit acids and have the highest percentage of vitamin C of all the fruits. Lemon and orange extracts from the fruit and essential oil (expressed from the peel) have astringent and antiseptic qualities that freshens, stimulates and rejuvenates sluggish skin.

Salicylic Acid
Salicylic Acid comes from willow bark and is a natural source of beta hydroxy acid (BHA). It is an excellent exfoliant, while at the same time has good anti-irritant and anti-inflammatory qualities. Salicylic Acid helps to reduce fine lines and has the ability to penetrate pores and thus encouraging the sloughing of dead skin cells. It works by softening the intracellular cement and decreasing cell-to-cell adhesion leaving soft and smooth skin.

Shea Butter
Shea Butter is the natural fat obtained from the fruit of the African Karite tree and is widely used in lotions and cleansing products for its hydrating properties. It protects skin from dehydration, restores skin's suppleness and improves the appearance of dry skin.

Sunflower Oil
Sunflower Oil contains beneficial amounts of Phospholipids as well as high concentrations of Ceramides. Its strengthening and protective agents help to further nurture and condition dry or damaged skin. The resilient Sunflower Extract is also known to care for sun-exposed and aging skin as a result of environmental aggression.

Love this and all of Glowology!

I am relatively new to your products, having purchased some for the first time last year. I bought several from a retail store in Lititz, PA, and I have been pleased with them all. I use "The Balm" for my hands but mostly for my feet- the heels- which are always dry and it helps so much. I use the Heavenly Honey Wash and the Sugar Mama Honey Scrub in the shower and they work so well and with my sensitive skin, they are wonderful. I keep the Lovely Body Lotion in my kitchen and use several times a day. I do think what I love most about these products is the smell- I am very sensitive to fragrances, most are too strong but this is so lovely, I am thrilled to have discovered your products. I am now looking forward to trying the exfoliating scrub.

winter takes a toll on your skin

LOVE The Balm! As soon as the temperature dips below 50 degrees (which is 6 months out of the year)....my hands are cracking! The Balm continues to keep my hands soft even after washing a couple of times! It absorbs completely so you are not left with a greasy layer after applying. I would recommend The Balm to anyone who nees relief from very dry skin!
