Product ingredient information
ASCORBIC ACID (in most products)
Ascorbic Acid is a natural water-soluble vitamin (Vitamin C). Ascorbic acid is a potent antioxidant agent that functions in fighting bacterial infections, suppressing free radicals and detoxifying reactions. It strongly contributes to the formation of collagen in fibrous tissue, teeth, bones, connective tissue, skin, and capillaries.
Found in citrus and other fruits, and in vegetables, vitamin C cannot be produced or stored by humans and must be obtained in the diet.

POTASSIUM SORBATE (most products)
Potassium sorbate is a naturally occurring unsaturated fatty acid.Organically Certified Potassium sorbate (mould inhibitor) is the potassium salt of sorbic acid. (Sorbic acid is derived from rowan berries or mountain ash, tree berries. It inhibits yeast and mould growth and is utilized in both food and skin products.) All these are natural occurrences and the organic claim is due to the trees and processes being organic.
This white salt that is very soluble in water. It is primarily used as a natural preservative in organic products. Potassium sorbate is effective in a variety of applications including food, wine, and personal-care products.

GEOGARD ULTRA (occasional use)
Geogard Ultra is a natural preservative that contains two organic acids. This preservative is also non-GMO. It is a preservative that meets ECOCERT (and international organic certification) standards. It can be used in natural and organic products. It is a combination of a naturally occurring food additive glucono delta lactone (derived from corn) and a food-grade preservative sodium benzoate (the sodium salt of benzoic acid) along with a trace amount of calcium gluconate as a processing agent.

AQUA - Water. When used, it is filtered rain water or NZ Natural Spring Water. (in all products due to rinsing)
XANTHAN GUM (in all thickened products)
Xanthan Gum is a polysaccharide derived from the fermentation of glucose or corn syrup and is used in a wide variety of cosmetics and personal care products most commonly as an emulsion stabiliser or thickener.
Xanthan gum produces a large increase in the viscosity of a liquid with the addition of a very small amount of gum. Xanthan Gum is an excellent natural thickener for face and body lotions, creams, shower gels, body washes, toothpastes and shampoos. We make a paste from the powder using a small amount of Organic Vegetable Glycerin. Slowly added to a vortex of Aloe Juice it thickens to the required viscosity.
