• Activated Charcoal - A form of carbon that can draw impurities and odor from the skin due to it's impressive surface area from it's porosity network. This surface area attracts and binds with odor molecules and moisture, without compromising or clogging sweat and oil pores. Found in permafrost variants and carbon deodorant.
  
  
• Witch Hazel - Distilled from the witch hazel plant, this liquid contains naturally occurring alcohol and serves to relieve skin irritation and lightly disinfect. Due to it's microbial, antiseptic, and astringent properties, it also aids in deodorization and skin toning. Found in aftershave, extrait, and carbon deodorant.
  
  
• Hempseed Oil - A cold pressed oil from the seeds of the hemp plant. It is used in our new shaving cream to bolster the conditioning and anti-inflammatory properties of the lather. Unlike most other seed oils, the cold pressed extraction method preserves the skin loving properties of the oil. This greatly helps to preserve the lifespan of the oil and its resistance to rapid oxidation.
  
  
• Essential Oil - EO is a natural oil derived from plants and resins, usually through steam distillation. EO's are very fragile in the soap making process, and have light skin transfer in bar soap. EO's can sensitize the skin, especially under constant exposure. Avoid while pregnant and keep away from pets and children. Found in scented products.

• Stearic Acid - A naturally occurring simple fatty acid derived from animal or plant fats. Used as a stabilizer in traditional shaving cream, and a hardener in carbon deodorant.
