Lavender Crème

Get the most out of your Rose Crème by saturating your skin with a Hydrosol first. Our Rose Hydrosol & Body Crème Duo follows the Benedetta practice of Water Integration by introducing water to the skin prior to applying an oil or crème. When used together- you get better hydration and saturation your skin needs to be healthy and radiant, while using less product overall.

Day: First exfoliate with Dry Brush, then shower with our Citrus Sugar & Salt Exfoliant and Sacred Soap. Spray first with one of our Hydrosols, and apply crème all over body. A little goes a long way.

I created the Rose Crème largely for the same reason I create many products, out of need for a clean and purposeful product in an industry full of adulterated and false ones. Now, even in the so called “plant based” era, there are still far too many fluff Rose Lotions with no viable useful synergies. I saw a need for an authentic, highly energetic Rose Crème and humbly present one to you.

All that aside, I personally love Rose for its ability to bring us into a balanced state of wellbeing. When I worked clinically as an esthetician, prior to formulating the Benedetta line, I performed customized aromatherapeutic treatments for my clients’ skin’s health care. Often, after hearing about sadness, stress and overall tension, I would do a simple drop of Rose oil with a couple drops of jojoba on their solar plexus at the center of their chest and massage gently to release those emotions that were often stuck.

Rose as many of you know is a botanical requiring [literally] a ton of petals to produce 1 single ounce of essential oil. The evolution of the rose is such that it gives of itself before its ready for picking, making it difficult to get any aromatic at all and taking thousands of petals to get a drop… how selfless. It comes as no surprise that Certified Organic Rose has the highest measurable electromagnetic field, ranging from 300-500mhz, as compared to Lavender at approximately 118mhz, and the human body at 65-70mhz.

The high vibration of the inimitable Rose aligned with our human condition appears to create a symbiotic resonance that is unequaled in the botanical world. Possibly with the exception of Helichrysum italicum, but that’s a subject of another blog entirely.

This queen of all essential oils is reputed for its regenerative properties on aging skin. Rose is beloved for its pronounced recognizable aromatic, which energetically opens your [emotional] heart, giving feelings of wellbeing and balance.

Benedetta’s Rose Crème is representative of how “True Rose” should smell- don’t be fooled by copycats. I make a very concentrated Rose Crème using high percentages of our farmer’s Certified Organic and Biodynamic Rose oil, Rose wax, and Rose Hydrosol [water].

The complimentary botanicals address the systemic correction and protection of the skin as well, with a cohesive unification that marries all ingredients together to make one singular preparation. No fillers of any kind are used, no fragrances, no solvents, just the purest most viable Rosa damascena, grown, harvested, and slow-rate hand-distilled. Our Rose Crème is made with intent and designed to be effective on all levels- physical, emotional and energetic.

Benedetta’s Rose Crème is designed to be used on the chest, arms, and hands with specific intention to renew the skin and prevent further damage. The Rose Duo: Rose Hydrosol before Rose Crème, aids better water integration, using less Crème and attaining greater results. Together our concentrated Rose Crème will last you several months.

For many years I was asked to create a body lotion. As a formulator, I look for the right ingredients for the preparation to couple with improving a physical disposition or skin disorder.

It wasn’t until one of my farmers in California sent me 5 gallons of Lemon Cypress hydrosol with a note saying,” I hope you can use this”, did I decide to create a body lotion using this beautiful botanical water.

A body lotion to improve circulation was the intention and the ingredients just fell into place. A synergy using nourishing botanicals that would rid the skin of dryness, as it aided circulation was created.

The Vibrant Body Lotion was born and launched in the San Francisco Ferry Building to amazing reviews. Still our best-seller, it possesses a unique fragrance coming from the fresh array of raw ingredients that uplift the senses as it works magic on the skin.

Our customers, young and old, all have outstanding reports suggesting increased circulation as well as improvement to skin disorders like eczema, psoriasis, and various other types of contact dermatitis.**

After 4 years of success with the Vibrant Lotion, we launched the addition of two more lotions, the Lavender Body Lotion and Neroli Body Lotion, both having similar reports of success.

Our Lavender is an authentic aroma grown and processed by a California biodynamic farm. The Neroli is biodynamically sourced from Egypt and is processed slowly, omitting a delicate floral aroma. Both are calming and soothing to the skin, with the Neroli being more effective for the drier skin conditions.

**None of these statements have been clinically proven nor do they suggest a cure or treatment to any disease or disorder.
