Organic Virgin Coconut Cream Oil is one of those ingredients that is universally enjoyed. It's delicicious aroma tends to induce love at first sniff. What keeps us coming back for more is its amazing ability to moisturize the skin without causing greasiness. Organic Virgin Coconut Cream Oil can even act as an astringent, making it an ideal choice for oily and combination skin types. Kiwi Seed Oil may be less well known, but its properties speak for themselves. Like most Fruit Seed Oils, Kiwi Seed Oil is loaded with antioxidants and essential fatty acids. In fact, Kiwi Seed Oil contains over 60% alpha linolenic acid, a component that helps skin and hair retain essential moisture, even in drying conditions. These two powerhouse oils have been blended with High Oleic Sunflower Oil for its light, penetrating texture. Together, these three oils create a moisturizing, nourishing, and non-greasy base for the Kiwi Salt Scrub.
