It's perfect for problem and sensitive skin. It's also gentle, non-drying, and alcohol-free. Plus it smells awesome.

Meet Steve Cook

The philosopher / salt harvester whose hard work goes into every jar of S.W. Exfoliant. I like to think that every time I exfoliate, I'm absorbing a little bit of his genius.

This Natural Moisturizing Face & Body Cream is the mother of all S.W. Basics products. You know how lots of lotions and moisturizers leave you needing more, like ten minutes after you put them on? That's because they use water as a base. When it evaporates, you dry out all over again.

This unique cream starts with wild-harvested shea butter sourced from an incredible Fair Trade women's cooperative in Ghana. Add in some organic extra-virgin coconut oil and organic extra-virgin olive oil. So it's extremely rich, sinking deep into the skin and staying there. Since all the ingredients are totally non-comedogenic, it won't clog your pores, meaning it's just as awesome on your face as it is on your body!

Features

• 3.75 oz glass apothecary jar
• 100% natural + fair trade
• Ultra-rich formulation with only 3 simple ingredients
• Non-comedogenic / won't clog pores
• Great for face and body
• Vegan / Gluten-free

Use

Apply a very small amount to dry skin.
