Use
Keep it close to reach for a dry application as often as needed. For a wet application, mix with a drop of water or better leave the balm next to your soap and incorporate in your hand & feet hygiene routine. On soap washed wet to damp hands & feet, spread a tiny amount in washing hand motions and leave to air dry or towel dry.

Caution
For external use only.

Allergies
Contains tree nuts, kernel and unrefined virgin seed oils. May have been in contact with bee and dairy products. Shea butter contains kariten, a component of latex. People allergic to latex should test first or seek medical advice. To limit the occurrence of allergies, it is recommendable to reduce sources of allergens at home (ambient perfumes, deodorizers, scented candles, harsh detergents, humidity and molds, smoke, etc) and test for food or contact allergies.

No waxes, keep cool to avoid  melting! Store in a dark, dry and cool place. Use before expiration date (36 months).This is a natural product subject to small variations in color, scent and texture.

Almost all NadiaZ solid products are made without waxes to improve their penetrability. They can therefore melt if not stored in cool temperatures. Melting does not affect product quality in anyway; neither does the apparition of grains. Shea and other butters tend to develop a grainy consistency when cooling. This is easily corrected by melting the products at low temperature (30°C) and solidifying them again rapidly in cold temperature, in a fridge for example. Because the temperature of the butter is cooler in the areas in contact with the glass recipient than in the center, most NadiaZ solid products will present a small sinking of the butter in the middle, which does not by any way imply any flaw from surface or physical contact.

NadiaZ Natural Cosmetics are formulated to limit the occurrence of allergies. For this reason no perfumes are added, the scent of the products come from the natural scent of the ingredient. However would you like to have a perfumed product for a special occasion, NadiaZ offers a bespoke service where you can select a scent of your choice depending of availability of NadiaZ ingredients (see the library). A selection of flowers, herbs and citrus can be chosen. However depending on the request and to ensure that the extract chosen is adequate for your health and lifestyle, a bespoke lifestyle coaching will be asked on your first order which will include also the work to make your first scented product. For the following orders, a bespoke fee will be charged depending on the extract chosen. No trials or returns will be accepted.

Please note that NadiaZ signature perfumes cannot be introduced in cosmetics as they are too concentrated in a very vast combination of rare plants that should not be applied im large quantities all over the body.

Recycle glass and paper.

NadiaZ uses Miron Glass, a precious and elegant violet glass, which can be traced back to the Ancient Egyptians who used it to store their medicinal products. It ensures the utmost preservation of fragile plant ingredients, thus reducing the need for any preservatives.

Miron glass is eco-friendly as it is 100% recyclable. You can discard it with your local glass collector or send it back to NadiaZ or your local  representative.

This is what Miron Glass does: Sunlight enables all plants to grow. If they continue to be exposed to the sun after reaching maturity, the effect of the light changes and accelerates the molecular decaying process. Miron violet glass works like a natural filter that only lets the sunlight that protects and improves the quality of premium and sensitive substances. Miron Violet glass blocks the complete spectrum of visible light with the exception of the violet part. At the same time it allows a certain part to be permeable for radiation in the spectral range of UV-A, and infra-red light. This unique combination offers optimal protection against the ageing processes that are released by visible light, thus lengthening durability and potency of products.

Our current boxes and pouches are conceived to be reused and protect the content during transportation. However, would you prefer to remove some of the packaging in recurring or grouped orders, we would be pleased to do so. NadiaZ favors the reuse of discarded shipping packaging, if your parcel contains  old looking plastic bubble wrap or paper, it is a because we are giving them a second life. Otherwise we are favoring natural fillers such as kapok fiber. Kapok (Ceiba pentandra) is chiefly cultivated in Asia and Indonesia; it is extremely soft, lighter than cotton, moisture-resistant, flammable and imputrescible.  Sadly  the fibre’s importance has decreased with the development of foam rubber and synthetic fibres.

Un beurre corporel véritablement nourrissant pour peau très sèche, abîmée, stressée, inflammée et susceptible aux allergies qui adoucit, soigne et procure un éclat exceptionnel jour après jour. Basée sur un complexe polyvalent – dont un pourcentage élevé de plantes riches en phytostérols tels que le Karité, l’Avocat et le Marula et en anti-oxydants telles que la Grenade et la Papaye – sa texture et formule opuente et non-siccative ont été optimisées pour renforcer la barrière cutanée des peaux atopiques contre les dommages des climats extrêmes, de la pollution ainsi que pour aider à l’entretien quotidien d’affections cutanées telles que irritations et exzéma en complément de traitements médicaux. Son odeur naturelle s’estompe rapidemment et est directement issue de la nature non-raffinée de ses ingrédients.
Garder au frais pour éviter que le beurre ne fonde!

Mode d’emploi: Appliquer en quantité suffisante et chaque jour sur tout le corps juste après la douche sur peau humide. Cela permet de retenir l’hydratation au niveau de la peau tout en lui conférant une fine couche protectrice. Répéter aussi souvent que nécessaire. S’utilise aussi pour massages à sec ou humides.

Précautions: Pour usage externe uniquement.

Allergies: Contient des huiles vierges non raffinées de noix, fruits à noyau et graines. Peut avoir été en contact avec des produits laitiers ou de la ruche. Le karité contient du karitène, un composé du latex. Les personnes allergiques au latex devraient tester d’abord ou demander un avis médical. Dans le but de limiter les allergies, il est recommandé de réduire les sources d’allergènes à la maison (parfums ambiants, désodorisants, bougies parfumées, détergents agressifs, humidité et moisissures, fumée, etc.) et de rechercher des allergies alimentaires ou de contact.

Conservation
Conserver dans un endroit sombre, sec et frais. Il s’agit d’un produit naturel soumis à de faibles variations de couleur, de parfum et de texture. Il est préférable de l’utiliser avant la date d’expiration (36 mois).

Presque tous les produits sous forme solide de NadiaZ sont fabriqués sans cires afin d’en améliorer la pénétrabilité. C’est la raison pour laquelle ils peuvent fondre s’ils ne sont pas conservés au frais. La fonte ou l’apparition de petits grumeaux dans les produits n’affectent en aucun cas sa qualité. Les changements de texture peuvent par ailleurs être corrigés en fondant les produits à basse température (30°C) puis en les resolidifiant rapidement à basse température, au frigo par exemple. Parce que la température des beurres est plus froide au contact des parois des récipients en verres qu’au centre, la plupart des produits NadiaZ présentent un affaissement de la surface du beurre au milieu, ce qui n’implique en aucun cas un défaut de surface ou contact physique.
