Just quality ingredients that are good for you, resulting in products you can feel good about. We're so proud of our ingredients that we've listed them all below. So you know exactly what goes into our products and what you get out of them.

ANTIOXIDANTS BUTTERS & WAXES CARRIER OILS ESSENTIAL OILS

Antioxidants

Antioxidants, like vitamins and plant compounds, shield skin from damage caused by free radicals, environmental aggressors, and UV radiation. When used in skincare products, they neutralize harmful molecules, promoting skin's health, reducing signs of aging, and maintaining a youthful, glowing complexion.

Rosemary Extract

Rosemary extract is rich in antioxidants that combat oxidative stress. It helps protect skin from pollutants, assists in maintaining skin's natural resilience, and enhances overall skin vitality.

Vitamin E Oil

Vitamin E oil, a potent antioxidant, fights free radicals and environmental stressors. It shields skin from premature aging, supports collagen production, and promotes healing, leaving skin nourished and radiant.

Carrier Oils

Essential oils are potent and can cause irritation when applied directly to your skin. That's where carrier oils come in. Carrier oils are used to dilute essential oils and “carry” them to your skin. Most carrier oils are unscented or lightly scented and don't interfere with an essential oil's therapeutic properties. At GD/Botanicals, we make many of our own infused carrrier oils.

Butters and Waxes

Butters and waxes, such as shea butter and beeswax, play a crucial role in skincare products.
