I make everything I use with as clean and green ingredients as possible. I have an extensive list……zero waste facial cleanser, shampoo bar and conditioner bar. Hair serum,hair styling cream, leave in conditioner, hair styling gel. Facial serums all kinds, moisturizers all kinds,eye creams, Cbd tinctures,legal thc 0.3% or less, Cbd/cbg body lotion and butters, body wash ,deodorant roll on and paste, lipstick,foundation. I am still working on plant pigmented lipstick but can’t seem to get rid of the grittiness no matter how long I mortar and pestle.

olive fruit oil,
beeswax,
hydrogenated castor oil,
glycine soybean lipids,
laurel laurate,
carnauba wax,
candellia wax.To this I was adding beetroot powder and hibiscus flower powder in a gram of glycerin .i also added 5 grams of btms-50 to the entire mixture.
