Prima Fleur Carrier Oil: JOJOBA

Jojoba oil is often preferred in perfumery as it is not an oil but a liquid wax produced in the seed of the jojoba (Simmondsia chinensis) plant, a shrub native to southern Arizona, southern California and northwestern Mexico. The oil makes up approximately 50% of the jojoba seed by weight. Unrefined jojoba oil appears as a clear golden liquid at room temperature with a slightly fatty odor.
Jojoba oil is relatively shelf-stable when compared with other vegetable oils. It is more shelf-stable than oils of safflower oil, almond oil, or squalene but less than castor oil, macadamia oil and coconut oil. Jojoba oil is chemically very similar to human sebum. Most jojoba oil is consumed as an ingredient in cosmetics and personal care products, and works especially well in skin care and hair care.
 
Prima Fleur Jojoba carrier oil [No. 409] is organically grown in Hawaii.

Prima Fleur Premier Products: SAMPHIRE EYE CREME

Samphire Eye Crème [Prima Fleur No. 1214] is formulated to soothe the delicate eye area. Each ingredient in this all-botanical formula is selected for efficacy and gentleness, specifically addressing issues of skin wrinkling, loss of elasticity, puffiness, hyper-pigmentation, reversal and prevention of free-radical damage.

The first sensation upon application is a dramatic feeling of soothing, cooling relaxation of the eye area. It is provided by its namesake ingredient, Crithmum maritimum, a sturdy variety of sea fennel that thrives in rocky, salt-sprayed regions along the pristine North Atlantic sea cost. Its common name, Samphire, is a variety of the name St. Peter, patron saint of fisherman.

Distilled to an aromatic water, Samphire has the ability to induce the skin's endorphin release from keratinocytes and sensory neurons, and provide a sensation of soothing calmness. Endorphins activate opiate receptors expressed in the limbic or "emotional" brain, which plays an important part in the sensation of pleasure.

The Ecocert-approved formula contains a high percentage of certified organic ingredients withou the sacrifice of potent actives. One of the many beneficial ingredients able to effect desirable change is Saccharomyces cerivisiae extract which increases celluylar-oxygen consumption. Combined with Rhodiola rosea root extract, it reduces the appearance of puffiness, strengthens and firms the skin,  iproviding microcirculation, thereby enhancing other beneficial ingredients.

Prima Fleur Essential Oil: ORANGE

Orange essential oil is produced from cells inside the rind of an orange fruit. In contrast to most essential oils, it is extracted as a by-product of orange juice production by centrifugation, producing a cold-pressed oil. It is composed of mostly (greater than 90%) d-limonene. Limonene gives citrus that rich juicy aroma. Prima Fleur Orange Essential Oil [No. 190] and certified-organic Orange oil [No. 243] are made in the USA.

Orange oil has beneficial anti-inflammatory, anti-spasmodic and antiseptic qualities. Applying orange oil to the skin not only helps to reduce inflammation and soothe sore muscles. It can also improve the skin tone and texture and combat acne and dermatitis. The natural disinfectant qualities of orange oil also make it useful for cleaning and treating scratches, scrapes and other minor wounds.

The strong, appealing scent of orange essential oil makes it a popular choice for aromatherapy applications. It is believed the smell of orange oil may improve one's overall mood, promote relaxation and peace of mind, reduce anger and anxiety, and even act as a natural aphrodisiac.
