This cream is formulated as a ‘skin friendly’ alternative to the common Sorbolene and ‘aqueous’creams. These products are based on petrochemicals – mineral oil, paraffin and petroleum jelly – along with strong synthetic emulsifiers and preservatives. They are a poor base for preparations, being neither skin-compatible nor offering any regenerative benefits for the skin. 

Essential Base Cream is our “general purpose” base cream and is an excellent carrier base for all types of topical applications. In fact, we considered naming it Not Sorbolene Cream! Essential Base Cream is very versatile. You can add up to an additional 10% of essential oils, our Therapeutic Massage Concentrates, Skin Synergy Blends or other oily ingredients. All you need to do is to stir in any additional ingredients until fully mixed.

In summary, Essential Base Cream is the perfect base cream for all types of skin care applications, including “non-oily” massage, reflexology treatments and more.
