A fabulous light, but nourishing cream, suitable for all skin types and can be used on your face or body. Full of antioxidants and organic plant oils and butters. Suitable for babies and children above 3 years old and during pregnancy.

You can choose to have it fragrance free with no essential oils (ingredients below) or I can make a bespoke one to suit you. Comes in a blue glass jar to protect the ingredients from light. This is not corn free, sadly - that is proving quite difficult to get in a cream, but I'm working on it! For you, the Skin Oil would be fab as it acts like a kind of serum; I use it myself.

Pure Fragrance Free

The cream is made from sunflower oil, shea butter, cocoa butter and coconut oil with natural emulsifiers and waxes derived from coconut and beeswax. Added aloe, rosehip and borage oil to really nourish and feed your skin properly and natural, safe preservatives as you have to have some in a water-based cream to stop it going off. Everything scores 1-2 on the EWG (Environmental Working Group) Skin Deep directory for toxicity and safety in cosmetics (I checked, of course!) except for benzyl alcohol, which is 4, and that is because, in larger amounts, it can irritate skin. Here, there is a tiny amount - you can always tell how much there is of something in a product from how close to the top or bottom it appears in the list. Top means more, obvs. Always best to patch test with any new product anyway.

Bespoke Blend

You could use this beautiful cream just as it is, but I can add all manner of extra things to it to customise it especially for you. For example, anti-ageing, skin issues of all kinds (rosacea, eczema, spots, dry and tight etc), encourage sleep, lower anxiety, mood boosting, balance hormones, or for your body: soothe arthritis, help heal a wound, cellulite etc.

*organic

This cream will usually last about 6 months once opened and kept in a cool place. It's like food with a touch of preservative and lots of antioxidants added so minimise digging your fingers in and keeping it open too much. You could even keep it in the fridge. That's what I do here before I send it to you! Patch test any new product before slathering it across your face, of course.

Tester Comments

I loved both the cream and the balm. Both absorbed better than I expected with them being so full of oils. Had no smell - a little coconut fragrance in the cream, maybe.

Feels lovely on my skin, I could feel it nourishing it when I used it before bed. My skin felt soft and not at all tight in the morning, which is unusual for me. I can see this will work for me. Thank you! [this was the cream]

I used this on my usually very sensitive eczema for a few days to test it for Micki. No irritation and the redness definitely coming down. Micki did add some extra German chamomile as an anti-inflammatory, which does smell quite earthy, but not floral, which I hate. [the cream]

Oh my goodness, that balm is to die for! I thought it would be gloopy and thick, sit on my skin, but not at all. It soaked in almost as well as the cream. Micki also made me a balm for my dry, cracked skin on my feet and another for my arthritic hands. I will definitely keep on using them. How nice to have someone make it just right for you!
