S.W. Basics manufactures "no-frills skincare." Not only do they cut out synthetic chemicals, they also leave out trendy, exotic botanicals and luxury fillers. Instead, they use the fewest possible ingredients for effective skincare. All products are made simpler for a reason: fewer ingredients means higher potency and less chance for irritation, which is why they're even great for sensitive skin.

Natural Moisturizing Face & Body Cream
$ 32.00
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
Use
Apply a very small amount to dry skin.

The pure formulation starts with a traditional organic rosewater-and-glycerin base, with a tiny bit of organic tea tree oil added for skin clarifying. No soap, no alcohol, no para-sulfate-whatchamacallits.
