Lemongrass Essential Oil
Lemongrass essential oil is a versatile oil that has a wide range of benefits for the skin. It is extracted from the leaves of the lemongrass plant through steam distillation. Lemongrass essential oil has a refreshing citrus scent and is commonly used in aromatherapy, as well as in skincare products.
Here are some of the skin care benefits of lemongrass essential oil:
-
Antimicrobial properties: Lemongrass essential oil has powerful antimicrobial properties that can help protect the skin from harmful bacteria and fungi. This can be particularly beneficial for people with acne-prone skin, as it can help prevent breakouts.
-
Anti-inflammatory properties: Lemongrass essential oil contains compounds that have anti-inflammatory properties, which can help soothe and calm irritated skin. This makes it a great ingredient for people with sensitive skin or those dealing with skin conditions like eczema or rosacea.
-
Antioxidant properties: Lemongrass essential oil is rich in antioxidants, which can help protect the skin from free radical damage. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can cause damage to the skin, leading to premature aging and other skin problems.
-

BOTANICAL NAME: Cymbopogon flexuosus
EXTRACTION: Steam distillation
DESCRIPTION: Lemongrass (Cymbopogon flexuosus) is a perennial grass native to the tropical climates of Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, India, Sri Lanka, Burma and Thailand. It has a rich history of use in Asian cuisine, and is also occasionally used as a pesticide and preservative. Lemongrass has been used for centuries in traditional medicine. It has a light, fresh, lemony scent that is popular in aromatherapy. In East India and Sri Lanka it is a main component to a common treatment called "fever tea" said to aid with fevers, menstruation, diarrhea and nausea. In Chinese medicine, lemongrass is used similarly to treat headaches, nausea and colds. Through the process of steam distillation, a colourless essential oil is derived that can be used topically to deliver many beneficial properties to the skin.
KEY COMPONENTS: Citral, geranial and nerol
FOUND IN: Kahuna Bubble Bath, Kahuna Body Lotion, Kahuna Hand Soap.
Ylang Ylang Essential Oil
Ylang ylang, also known as Cananga odorata, is a tropical tree native to Southeast Asia that is highly valued for its sweet, floral fragrance. However, the essential oil extracted from its flowers is also becoming increasingly popular in skin care products due to its numerous benefits for the skin.
One of the key benefits of ylang ylang oil for the skin is its ability to balance and regulate oil production. This makes it particularly useful for people with oily or acne-prone skin, as it can help to reduce sebum production and prevent breakouts. At the same time, ylang ylang oil is also moisturizing and can help to keep the skin soft and supple.
Ylang ylang oil also has antibacterial and antifungal properties, which can help to prevent infections and soothe inflammation. This makes it a great ingredient for people with sensitive or irritated skin, as it can help to calm redness and reduce itchiness.
In addition to its skin-balancing and soothing properties, ylang ylang oil is also known for its ability to promote relaxation and reduce stress. This is because it contains linalool, a natural compound that has been shown to have a calming effect on the nervous system. Using skin care products containing ylang ylang oil can therefore be a great way to promote overall wellness and relaxation.
Overall, ylang ylang is a versatile and beneficial ingredient for skin care. Whether you have oily or dry skin, sensitive or acne-prone skin, or just want to promote relaxation and well-being, ylang ylang oil can be a great addition to your skin care routine.
BOTANICAL NAME: Cananga odorata var. genuina
EXTRACTION: Steam distillation
DESCRIPTION: Ylang Ylang is the name of the flower from the cananga tree, or the Cananga odorata. This tree is native to Malaysia and the Philippines. The flowers are small and a vibrant yellow colour with petals that droop down in a star-like shape. The pale yellow essential oil derived from the petals of the flowers is exceptionally fragrant giving off a fruity, floral, woody scent that is highly sought-after by the perfume industry. These trees are often planted on roadsides in Malaysa to provide shade and spread its beautiful scent.
KEY COMPONENTS: Benzyl acetate, linalool, p-cresyl methyl ether, and menthyl benzoate
FOUND IN: Kahuna Bubble Bath, Kahuna Body Lotion, Kahuna Hand Soap
Green Chemistry
We use the safest and most effective antioxidants, preservatives and emulsifiers to ensure our products nourish, soothe and protect your skin.
Coco Glucocide: A non-ionic surfactant used for foaming and cleansing. It is derived from coconut oil and fruit sugars and is created through a chemical reaction between glucose and coconut oil derived ingredients. Coco-glucoside is used to build viscosity and foaming capacity in soaps. It is very gentle and acts as a cleansing agent without drying out skin.
Citric Acid: Used as a pH adjuster derived from certain fruits or vegetables through fermentation.
Hyaluronic Acid: A polysaccharide found naturally in skin that has the ability to bind large amounts of water to keep skin hydrated. We use a low-molecular hyaluronic acid created through fermentation that is able to penetrate the skin without causing irritation.
Propanediol: A colourless liquid glycol, naturally derived from corn. It functions as both a solvent and humectant.
Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda): Derived from minerals that are refined into calcium carbonate then turned into baking soda. When combined with citric acid, baking soda creates a fizz that both softens the water and distributes the essential oils throughout.
ANTIOXIDANTS
Resveratrol: A source of polyphenol antioxidants derived from knotweed.
Rosemary Leaf Extract & Rosemary CO2: Extract from rosemary leaf that is very high in antioxidants. Keeps our products smelling and feeling as fresh as possible.
Vitamin E (tocopherol): A naturally occurring antioxidant.
EMULSIFIERS
An emulsifier is the ingredient that binds water to oil in order to create an emulsion, which is just a fancy term for cream or lotion. We chose the following ingredients because they are safe, do not separate, and do not leave a sheen on your skin after applying.
Cetearyl Alcohol: A fatty alcohol extracted from coconuts that is very different than denatured alcohol, which is known to dry out skin.
Sodium Cetearyl Sulfate: The sodium salt of sulfur extracted from coconut. Sulphur is an element that exists in all of nature. The term 'no sulfates' is way too broad a term and is based on a lot of misinformation.
Stearic Acid: A fatty acid extracted from plants that acts as a thickening agent and helps to prevent melting in warmer temperatures. Plant fats that are solid at room temperature, such as shea butter, cocoa butter, palm oil or coconut oil, contain high amounts of stearic acid.
Xanthan Gum: A natural food and cosmetic additive used as a binder, emulsion stabilizer and skin conditioning agent. It is a polysaccharide produced from simple sugars using fermentation. It is dried and processed into a powder, when added to water it acts as a thickener.
PRESERVATIVES
The preservatives we use for our lotions, creams, cleansers and toners are sodium levulinate from non-GMO corn, and sodium anisate from basil. Levulinate contains the same compound (levulinic acid) that bees use to protect their pollen and nectar. Not only are these effective anti-microbials, but they also have active skin care properties; soothes skin and balances the skin's PH to an ideal level.
Glyceryl Caprylate: Derived from coconuts, it works with sodium levulinate and sodium anisate in our preservative system.
Vegetable Glycerin: A colourless, odourless liquid that derives from non-GMO rapeseed oil. It is soluble in water and acts as a humectant (attracts moisture).
REFLECTOR SPF 30 FACIAL SUN PROTECTION
Zinc Oxide: A naturally occurring powdered mineral used in lotions and creams meant for outdoor use. Zinc Oxide sits on top of the skin scattering, reflecting and absorbing UVA and UVB rays.
Titanium Dioxide: A naturally occurring mineral that works like tiny mirrors to deflect UV rays off of the skin. It has a high refractive index and ability to reflect and scatter light. Titanium Dioxide is both gentle and cooling on the skin.
Aluminum Hydroxide: Used as a skin protectant - coats the titanium dioxide and forms a protective layer without penetrating the skin.
Lauric Acid: Naturally occurring fatty acid found in coconut oil.
Triethoxycaprylylsilane: Used to create a stable coating for zinc oxide.
Tapioca Starch: Derived from the root of the cassava plant and is used to create a smooth, non-oily, light cream.
Olive Leaf Extract and Turmeric are both antioxidant rich botanical extracts that are soothing and rejuvenating to the skin.
EMULSIFIERS
Glyceryl Stearate SE: Fatty acid derived from vegetable oil, produced from glycerin and stearic acid and used as an emulsifier.
Polyglyceryl-6 Distearate: Produced from glycerol and stearic acid and used as an emulsifier.
PRESERVATIVES
Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C): Used as a preservative and antioxidant.
Benzyl Alcohol, Salicylic Acid and Sorbic Acid: All ECOCERT approved preservatives that work together in Reflector SPF 30 to ensure safe broad spectrum protection.
Potassium Sorbate: The inactive salt of sorbic acid.
