Think of Healing Cream as an all purpose safe first aid cream for most skin problems - a herbal antiseptic, anti-inflammatory and healing cream for topical application to sores, bites, burns, stings, rashes, boils, cracked skin, eczema etc. Many people with eczema have found it useful as a harmless maintenance cream to keep skin moist and eczema at bay, reserving their use of cortisone creams for times when the eczema is really nasty.

It is also a restorative heavy duty hand cream for people who work with their hands (use at night as the cream is heavy, almost like an ointment). For instance, around Broome workers cleaning pearlshell need something effective to use on nicks and scratches and the effects of salt water.

Safe for children if used topically, not all over. Remember the cream contains just over 3 per cent pure essential oils. Ali & Smokey's 11 year old son used to have his own little 30 ml pot, ideal for scraped knees and other minor accidents.

The little 30 ml pot is a great one to take travelling as it's useful for such a wide variety of skin ailments.

Purified water, calendula & St John’s wort extracts & infused oils, evening primrose, jojoba, rose hip, wheatgerm & carrot oils, emulsifying wax NF, beeswax, Vitamin E, hydroxypropyl starch phosphate, chamomile extract, aloe vera, glycerine, pure essential oils of lavender, niaouli, tea tree, German chamomile, frankincense, myrrh, helichrysum & manuka, fragrance (natural plant derived preservative), potassium sorbate.

Back by public demand after we stopped making this very complex and messy-to-make product! It requires ALL our pots and the zinc is immensely difficult to clean off! 

An all natural non-irritating tinted lotion designed to give physical protection from harmful UVA and UVB rays as well as general environmental damage from harsh Australian conditions. Use it as a sunscreen for prolonged sun exposure. Safe for babies. Not completely waterproof - reapply after swimming. The main active ingredient is zinc oxide at 8 per cent - this is not micronized, so it cannot cross the skin barrier and neither does it give a ghosting effect, but it may feel slightly chalky on. The green and black tea with the white zinc oxide in Skinsmart give the product a beige colour - it can double as a natural foundation. To date we have never encountered anyone sensitive to this product, including very young children. It is the best we can do to provide a completely natural, non chemical sunscreen. Great for all over protection but you might want to add the old fashioned thick zinc cream on your nose if you are in the sun all day.

For prolonged sun exposure -
Apply liberally every 2 hours and after swimming (not waterproof)
