Winter Moisture Trio: three formulations for highly moisturizing natural beauty products. It’s safe to say that 2020 has been a challenging year for all of us. With the pandemic still causing uncertainty across the globe, consumers are craving comfort, now more than ever. Many beauty practices that were taking place in the salon are happening from the comfort of home, and as the winter months approach, consumers will flock to their favorite brands for help with dry skin and hair. Use the following formulations from our Winter Moisture Trio to inspire your own line of winter care products, and encourage your customers to create healthy self-care rituals that will keep their skin and hair moisturized and protected during the colder months.  These formulations focus on all three areas that need winter protection: hair, body, and face. We used highly nutritive oils that are packed with antioxidants, essential fatty acids and tocopherols. With all three of these products, you’ll find that a little bit goes a long way, making them essential beauty staples that could last all winter long. Shelf Life & Stability  Please note that the formulations featured here on The Natural Beauty Workshop have not been challenge tested for stability or shelf life, and may not be suitable for commercial use as-is.

Kalahari Melon Seed oil is showing up in many trendy beauty products on the market and with good reason: this remarkable oil boasts an impressive 70% linoleic acid (omega-6 essential fatty acid) content and is an excellent source of natural tocopherols.  As a finishing touch, we used a calming blend of Patchouli and Lavender Essential Oils in this serum, but you can also substitute with any of our Essential Oils, CO2 Extracts, Plant-Based Fragrance Oils or Fragrance Oils.
