Natural Skin Care Ingredients and Descriptions
When I formulate a CARŌL’S I set some very rigid standards. The products contain organic ingredients as available. If I would not use it on myself or my children, I will not use it in my products. All herbs are either certified organic or wild crafted (harvested in their wild natural state). One of my most enjoyable activities every year is the annual harvesting I go through to obtain fresh ingredients. CARŌL’S products are designed to be hypoallergenic and cruelty free.
Below is a description of each ingredient used. The following information is not intended as medical advice. Its intention is solely educational.
