“The Cat’s Meow” Moisturising Cream is a lighter cream, with fast-absorbing camellia oil as its only carrier oil. So, when you’re in a hurry in the morning, this cream will not slow you down and quickly absorb to give you that fresh and smooth feeling.
Tea tree essential oil is a must in any skin-care regime for oily or combination skin types and is reputed to help combat acne as well as having anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral properties. Geranium essential oil complements tea tree oil nicely, being reputed to help fight acne, dermatitis and eczema.
If you are looking for a comprehensive day & night moisturiser combination, we recommend pairing “The Cat’s Meow” for your mornings with “The Cat’s Pajamas” Moisturising Cream for your nights.
Although both are formulated to be particularly beneficial for oily, combination and sensitive (including acne and eczema-prone) skin, they do provide benefits for all skin types.
All the oils in this product are certified-organic. The essential oils are therapeutic-grade.
We use certified-organic, vegetable-based and palm-oil free glycerin. As this is a water-oil-based cream, we use Emulsifier O (cetearyl olivate & sorbitan olivate), which is derived from olives, and we use Geogard 221 (benzyl alcohol & dehydroacetic acid) as a preservative (a must-do in any cosmetics containing water), which is approved for use in organic products. Both are Ecocert approved.
General Information: OK to use daily. Keep in a cool, dark place.
General Cautions: For external use only. Keep away from eyes. Do not use if you are allergic to any of the ingredients. Product is made in an environment where nuts may have been present. Caution is advised when using products containing essential oils during pregnancy or on children.
