Ingredients INCI

On the left you will find the ingredients as we know them colloquially and on the right according to the INCI, the International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients.

Good to know
* Linalool, limonene, farnesol and geraniol are natural components of the essential neroli oil. Relevant for people with allergies.

Essential oils are extracted from flowers and parts of plants. They combine the concentrated power of the plants and, in addition to the fragrance, have various positive and negative effects. People with intolerance to certain plants often also react to the corresponding essential oils. A single essential oil consists of up to 200 chemical components - some of which can have an allergenic effect. For this reason, 26 allergenic components have been defined by the EU. These must always be shown separately in the overview of ingredients (INCI) and let people with allergies know that certain products should be avoided.

That's what our ingredients can do

1. Shea Butter
Quality: organic, refined
Our popular shea cream contains one thing above all: valuable organic shea butter, which we source from women's cooperatives in Burkina Faso and refer to Ghana. Our supplier knows the women personally and guarantees the cooperatives fair purchase prices. The shea butter gives the cream its consistency and protects the skin from moisture loss. Pure shea butter is quite solid (similar to honey) but becomes liquid at body temperature. Incidentally, this also explains why the consistency of your cream can change with temperature fluctuations. It can become more liquid or solid, and the shea butter can crystallize. However, this does not affect the quality of the product.

2. Jojoba Oil
Quality: organic, cold-pressed
Jojoba oil is a light oil that ideally complements the shea butter and takes its heaviness away. It absorbs well, does not seal the skin and protects against moisture loss. Jojoba oil is an oxidatively very stable oil. It prevents other oils from going rancid (in the product and on the skin), which is very important for your skin and thus protects against the formation of free radicals. Argan oil (organic): has a balanced composition of fatty acids and supports the regeneration of the skin barrier.

3. Argan Oil
Quality: organic, cold-pressed
Argan oil is known as the gold of Morocco. Rightly so, because the oil impresses with its balanced composition of fatty acids. It is predestined for rough, dry and demanding skin. It has a smoothing effect and relieves itching.

4. Vitamin E
Quality: non GMO, from soy
Vitamin E acts as a radical scavenger.

5. Essential neroli oil
Quality: organic, steam distillation of the flowers
Neroli oil is one of the most valuable essential oils and is extracted from the blossoms of the bitter orange tree. We use the precious neroli because of its good skin tolerance and the fresh, delicately sweet and tart scent.

Face application
Wash face with lukewarm water, then apply a small amount of the cream to damp skin. Can be applied morning and/or evening.

Body use
Apply to previously moistened skin as required, for example after gardening, for intensive care or simply as a rich body lotion.

Note
Since we do not use water in the formulation, the cream is highly concentrated. You need much less than you are used to from previous creams. However, this cream cannot offer you a light texture that is immediately absorbed by the skin, because that would require a lot of substances that we do not want in our products and not on your skin. However, with the right dosage and application with water, this is not a problem. Our customers think so too, by the way. Feel free to check out the reviews below.

Should I use the Shea Cream or the Face Oil - Dry Skin?

The FIVE Shea Cream is best used in the colder months when your skin needs a lot of protection and care. The FIVE facial oil is lighter and is suitable for summer or all year round for anyone who prefers rich but light care.

The products can also be used in combination in winter: Use the FIVE Shea Cream as a cold balm for winter walks and the FIVE Face Oil - dry skin for a working day in the office. <
