Macadamia Seed Oil An emollient derived from the seed of a small evergreen tree native to coastal rainforests of central east Australia (New South Wales and Queensland) and commercially grown in Hawaii and France. Macadamia nut oil is similar to sebum, the oil naturally produced by human skin to protect itself. It contains magnesium and thiamin, absorbs well into the skin, and is highly emollient and soothing.
Beeswax A natural substance obtained from the honeycomb. Can be yellow or white. It has powerful anti-microbial properties. Vegans will want to avoid products with beeswax.

Jojoba Seed Oil Oil extracted from the beanlike seeds of the desert shrub Simondsia chinensis. It has been used for many years by Mexican and American Indians for hair and skin care.
