ANHYDROUS FORMULAS, WHAT ARE THEY? AND WHY WE THINK THEY ARE BETTER FOR YOUR SKIN?

ANHYDROUS FORMULAS, WHAT ARE THEY? AND WHY WE THINK THEY ARE BETTER FOR YOUR SKIN?

Anhydrous Formulas, what are they?  A combination of ingredients that do not contain water and that do not need synthetic preservatives to prolong shelf life.

Why do we feel these products can be better for your skin? Well, to start off with, the most obvious reason is, that the formula hasn't been watered down to create volume. There is no need for any unwanted synthetic preservatives because of no water being present. With Anhydrous formulas, you get a more concentrated product, containing more vitamins, nutrients and fatty acids that are great for your skin. Not only that, a little goes a long way, so you may think Anhydrous products are a little more expensive, however they deliver a lot more for your money. Not only in the goodness of the ingredients, but in the amount that you need to use. They are particularly good for dry skin. They are great for people that need to avoid preservatives due to sensitive skin and they offer a stronger skin barrier support. 

Body Butters were traditionally always only made the Anhydrous way, over time companies started playing on the words of body butters and making thick creams to replicate a true body butter. Our Body butters are made the traditional way with only Carrier Oils, Butters and Essential Oils for scent.
