An intensely healing body oil of slow infused organic Sonoran jojoba with wild harvested Southwestern creosote bush.
Creosote is an evergreen shrub, with small waxy leaves, that thrives in desert climates. The plant got the name creosote when men building the railroad west through Texas into Southern CA in the late 19th century thought the bushes smelled similar to the petroleum-based creosote that they infused railroad ties with. Known by others as "la hediondilla" or stinky one, because of its distinctive smell that most Southwesterners say reminds them of the desert in the rain.
Creosote is a skin healer that has been used for hundreds of years by indigenous Americans. An incredible treatment for skin irritations of all kinds, use creosote infused jojoba oil to nourish and protect extremely dry skin, on sunburn and bug bites, to soothe itch, and as a therapeutic and moisturizing hair treatment because it has anti-fungal properties for the scalp.

The base of the oil is our go-to organic Sonoran jojoba oil, a fantastically effective oil that can be used for hair, face, and body. Naturally antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, non-toxic, and non-comedogenic jojoba is one of two oils that are the most structurally similar to the skins natural oil, making it an useful allover body oil for every skin type.

Pretty and delicate 14k gold chain with a tiny 14k gold key. Primitive locks and keys have been used for thousands of years, beginning with the ancients Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans. Over time, the key came to symbolize more than protection of personal property. A key grants access to something beyond a closed door – a tool to symbolically unlock knowledge, power, deeper material and spiritual understanding, and even to connect with the afterlife.

Antique, hand-engraved mother of pearl gaming chips crafted in China for export to the gaming tables of Britain's aristocracy.
Antique, hand-engraved gaming chips crafted in China for export to Britain. The Georgian and Victorian aristocracy used the chips when playing parlor games.
In Chapter 16 of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice Lydia Bennet is playing a simple card game called Lottery at Mrs Phillips’s house.
Elizabeth went away with her head full of him. She could think of nothing but of Mr. Wickham, and of what he had told her, all the way home; but there was not time for her even to mention his name as they went, for neither Lydia nor Mr. Collins were once silent. Lydia talked incessantly of lottery tickets, of the fish she had lost and the fish she had won; Mr. Collins, in describing the civility of Mr. and Mrs. Philips, protesting that he did not in the least regard his losses at whist, enumerating all the dishes at supper, and repeatedly fearing that he crouded his cousins, had more to say than he could well manage before the carriage stopped at Longbourn House.
The chips could be many shapes but were often fish because fish were seen as symbols of good luck, wealth and abundance in China.
The Chinese also used fish, specifically the koi, as a symbol of longevity, since that fish grows very old, and as a symbol of unity and fidelity, because they often swim in pairs. Fish charms were often given as wedding gifts to represent a perfect union and as a good omen for fertility because of the fish's ability to reproduce rapidly and in large volumes.

Hot Blooded is a potent and seductive massage and body oil that helps to relax and clear the mind, creating space for stimulated senses and heightened feelings of arousal. A heady, hydrating blend of pure, cold-pressed, organic Argan oil from a women-owned and operated collective in Morocco blended with organic Jojoba Oil, Indian sandalwood, and pure Moroccan rose absolute. Use Hot Blooded as an allover massage oil, hydrating body oil, or on pulse points as a sensual perfume oil.

Two of our favorite pure oils, the argan and jojoba blend is rich in natural antioxidants and fatty acids and remarkably close to the skin's natural sebum, so the oil absorbs readily into the skin, leaving it soft and hydrated without feeling heavy or greasy.
The soft, woody scent of sandalwood helps to relieve anxiety, has anti-depressive qualities, and though it relaxes the nervous system, is said to give off erotic signals to the opposite sex and cause a subtle quickening of the pulse.

The scent of rose is an intoxicating aphrodisiac and helps to boost libido and arouse the senses. Rose is extensively used as aromatherapy to combat depression and anxiety, paving the way for enhanced sexual intimacy, and is said to help balance the nervous system, allowing the body to more fully enjoy the sensation of touch.

Pure Organic Zdravetz essential oil, a medicinal herb and potent aphrodisiac that can be added to jojoba for body or prickly pear for face. Packaged in a reusable, hand blown glass bottle with dropper that is shipped wax and cork sealed.

Zdravetz means health in Bulgarian and is an aromatic, flowering plant that has been part of the folk traditions of the country for centuries. A strong and stimulating aphrodisiac, Bulgarian folklore holds that a bridegroom should sleep in a field of Zdravetz the night before his wedding.

For the skin, this antiseptic essential oil is known to be capillary strengthening, to help lighten areas of hyperpigmentation, and to be effective at reducing fine lines and wrinkles, especially of the delicate eye area.

As Zdravetz will crystallize even at room temperature, it is blended with an organic rosehip oil, a moisturizing carrier oil that is especially good for those with sensitive and rosacea prone skin.

Add to:

1-2 drops in Organic Sonoran Jojoba Oil or Organic Cold Pressed Prickly Pear Seed Oil for face.

A single miracle ingredient for body and hair – pure, organic jojoba oil from a family run farm in the Sonoran Desert. Packaged in a reusable, cork and wax sealed glass bottle, hand blown from recycled glass by artisans in Oaxaca, Mexico.
We chose organic jojoba as one of the staples of our beauty regiment because of its long history and versatility. Native Americans in the American Southwest have been using jojoba for hundreds of years to treat skin conditions, sores, wounds, sun and windburn, and as a hair and scalp treatment. One of two oils that are the most structurally similar to the skins natural oil – the other being whale oil – the use of the more humane and renewable jojoba became more prevalent after the government banned the use of sperm whale oil in 1974.

Jojoba is a fantastically effective oil that can be used for hair, face, and body. Naturally antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, non-toxic, and non-comedogenic these are just some of the myriad ways this single ingredient wonder oil can be used:

Use a few drops on the face to hydrate, replenish, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles.

A naturally astringent facial cleanser and makeup remover – apply with fingers and rinse with warm water.

To combat breakouts – jojoba can balance the skin by slowing the overproduction of sebum that can clog pores and cause pimples. For spot treatment pat a small amount of jojoba on affected area after cleansing and let it absorb into skin or use a few drops allover the face as you would your normal face oil.

Jojoba oil can be used on lips for softness and shine.

Apply to entire body immediately after bathing to nourish and hydrate skin and to lighten and help heal scars.

To combat dandruff - massage into scalp for 5 minutes, working into the hair to the ends. Wrap head with a warm towel for 45 min – 1 hr and wash out with shampoo.

Use a small amount in damp hair before styling for softness and shine or use a few drops in dry hair to smooth away frizz.

Add-ons:

1-2 drops of Organic Damask Rose Otto Oil with Wildcrafted Balsam for a heady, scented body oil or an intoxicating and aphrodisiac massage oil.

1-2 drops of Farm Distilled Peppermint Oil for a cooling after-sun or after-workout body oil or massage oil to treat sore muscles and joints.

1-2 drops of Organic Hemp Oil for a relaxing, sensation-heightening body and massage oil.

Organic Sonoran Jojoba Oil

Creosote is an evergreen shrub, with small waxy leaves, that thrives in desert climates. Known as "la hediondilla" or stinky one, because of its distinctive smell that most Southwesterners say reminds them of the desert in the rain. Early native Americans held beliefs that it treated many maladies, including sexually transmitted diseases, tuberculosis, chicken pox, dysmenorrhea, and snakebite. Today creosote is an incredible salve for abrasions, sun-damaged skin, red scaly patches, scratches and bug bites, itchy feet, and almost anywhere that needs a little TLC.

Dew is a lightweight and silky serum formulated to be applied to freshly cleansed skin morning and night. Made with plant derived organic, cold-pressed squalane, a mild oil suitable for all skin types that is molecularly similar to oil naturally produced by the body but that begins to decline in our 20s. Readily absorbed into the skin, plant squalane replaces some of this lost natural oil and aids the skin’s moisture barrier, locking in hydration to slow the signs of aging and plump and firm the skin. Blended with organic, cold-pressed cloudberry seed oil, a Norwegian super-fruit super-charged with vitamins and fatty acids that help to brighten skin, stimulate collagen production, and retain moisture below the skins surface.

Rose quartz can range in color from pale pink to deep blushing pink and owes its rosy hue to the presence of manganese, iron and titanium within the stone. One of the most popular crystals in healing, rose quartz is often referred to as the “heart stone,” extolled for its power to attract love and intimacy, as well as its capacity to ease heartbreak and heal emotional wounds. It is thought to facilitate connection, encourage compassion and tenderness, and enhance sensuality. It has been used as a token of love for centuries.
