Shea Butter
A solid fatty oil made from the nuts of Karite Nut trees, also known as Mangifolia, that grow in the semi-arid savannah regions of West and Central Africa. Shea butter is sometimes called “women’s gold,” because extracting the butter from the nuts gives employment and income to hundreds of thousands of rural African village women. Shea butter is so non-toxic and beneficial that it is used in foods and cooking as well as soaps and beauty products.
African healers and beauties have known about shea butter for thousands of years: the substance is almost magical in its healing effects on burns, skin conditions, ulcerated skin, stretch marks, and dryness. It contains beneficial vegetable fats that promote cell regeneration and circulation, making it a wonderful healer and rejuvenator for troubled or aging skin. It also contains natural sun-protectants.
(radiata) has natural antiseptic, anti-infectious, anti-inflammatory, and antibiotic properties, and is effective against acne. It reportedly increases energy, counters physical debility, and restores emotional balance.
Eucalyptus
Essential oil comes from cold pressing the lemon peel and not the inner fruit. The secret to lemon’s success appears to be d-limonene, a powerful cancer fighting antioxidant. Benefits for skin can include reducing acne, nourishing damaged skin and hydrating skin. Lemon oil can support lymphatic drainage and help you overcome a cold fast, just rub on your neck. Un stick the sticky goo your kids leave behind with stickers and gum with lemon oil.
Lemon
An uplifting and bright essential oil known for its antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving and decongestant properties. I find it most useful though when I have a cold or headache. When applied to the chest during a cold, peppermint opens and soothes the lungs. For a headache I apply a small amount, diluted in carrier oil, to my fingertips and massage into the temples.
Peppermint
Revered for its analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antifungal, antiviral, antibacterial, diuretic, and sedative properties. I keep it in the fridge (yes, the fridge) for one main reason though: Burns. Lavender, when applied immediately to burns, helps to relieve the pain, stop the burn from progressing, sterilize the area and start the healing process.

Tea Tree
Tea tree oil comes from the leaves of Melaleuca alternifolia, a small tree native to Queensland and New South Wales, Australia. Although Melaleuca alternifolia is known as the tea tree, it should not be confused with the plant that produces leaves used to make black, green and oolong tea. Tea tree oil has been used as a traditional medicine by Aborigines for centuries. These native Australians crush tea tree leaves to extract the oil, which is then inhaled to treat coughs and colds or applied directly to the skin for healing. Tea tree oil contains a number of compounds, including terpinen-4-ol, that have been shown to kill certain bacteria, viruses and fungi (1, 2). Terpinen-4-ol also appears to increase the activity of your white blood cells, which help fight germs and other foreign invaders (3). These germ-fighting properties make tea tree oil a valued natural remedy for treating bacterial and fungal skin conditions, preventing infection and promoting healing. Tea Tree has a number of uses such as a Natural Hand sanitizer, insect repellant, natural deodorant, antiseptic, boost wound healing, acne, nail fungus soothe skin inflammation, dandruff control, athletes foot & relieves psoriasis

Hemp
Hemp Seed Oil – Full of Fatty acids may affect immune responses in the body. This may have something to do with the balance of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids.
Hemp seeds are a good source of polyunsaturated and essential fatty acids. They have about a 3:1 ratio of omega-6 to omega-3, which is considered in the optimal range.
Studies have shown that giving hemp seed oil to people with eczema may improve blood levels of essential fatty acids. It may also relieve dry skin, improve itchiness and reduce the need for skin medication. BOTTOM LINE:Hemp seeds are rich in healthy fats.
