CUSTOMERS HAVE ASKED US WHY WE USE ORGANIC MACADAMIA OIL IN LARIA

WELL, WE WANTED TO CREATE A GREAT NEW PERFUME; WITHOUT COMPROMISE

IT HAD TO SMELL GREAT AND FEEL GREAT ON THE BODY. OH! AND BE MADE OF NATURAL INGREDIENTS

WE CHOSE MACADAMIA BECAUSE OF ITS FOLLOWING PROPERTIES:

IT CONTAINS MANY OF THE THE SAME LIPIDS AS OUR SKIN. SO IT ABSORBS VERY QUICKLY WITHOUT LEAVING AN OILY RESIDUE (AND IS NOT ANIMAL BASED)
IT IS MADE UP OF OVER 80% MONOUNSATURATED FATTY ACIDS OMEGA 3 AND OMEGA 6 WHICH HELP STOP SKIN MOISTURE LOSS AND RESIST TOXINS
IT IS ALSO RICH IN MAGNESIUM, ZINC, VITAMIN A1, B1, B2, E. THESE HELP SKIN HEALTH AND HELP RESIST SIGNS OF AGING
IT IS ODORLESS AND ACTS AS A ‘FIXATIVE’ FOR THE AROMATIC COMPOUNDS, THUS CREATING A SUBTLE LONG-LASTING SCENT

WE DID LOOK AT OTHER OILS, INCLUDING OLIVE OIL (THAT WE PRODUCE ORGANICALLY AT HOME). HOWEVER NONE WERE AS GOOD AS MACADAMIA, WHICH WE COULD ALSO OBTAIN AS CERTIFIED ORGANIC. WHAT’S THE POINT OF USING AN ANTI-TOXIN UNLESS YOU GO THE WHOLE WAY AND OBTAIN ORGANIC QUALITY?

MACADAMIA WAS NOT A CHEAP OPTION. IT IS DOUBLE THE PRICE OF ALMOND, SUNFLOWER AND OLIVE OILS. THEN CERTIFIED ORGANIC MACADAMIA OIL IS TWICE AS COSTLY AGAIN

LARIA OIL IS A 40% CONCENTRATION PERFUME WHICH MEANS THAT IT IS MADE UP OF 40% AROMATIC COMPOUNDS AND 60% ORGANIC OIL. THIS IS THE HIGHEST QUALITY AVAILABLE ON THE MARKET

DELUXE ‘EXTRAITS DE PARFUMS’ ARE TYPICALLY 25% CONCENTRATION. ‘EAUX DE TOILETTES’ ARE 10%. THE REMAINING 75% AND 90% RESPECTIVELY ARE ALCOHOL AND WATER. IT IS THIS HIGH LEVEL OF ALCOHOL IN STANDARD PERFUMES THAT MAKES YOUR SKIN FEEL DRY AND IRRITATED AFTER YOU SPRAY IT. THE LOW PERCENTAGE OF AROMATIC COMPOUNDS IS OVERCOME BY USING STRONG ARTIFICIAL FRAGRANCE

LARIA STANDS ALONE WITH ITS UNIQUE COMBINATION OF NATURAL INGREDIENTS, ORGANIC OIL AND HIGH CONCENTRATION OF AROMATIC COMPOUNDS. THESE 3 FACTORS MAKE A TRULY UNIQUE PRODUCT THAT SMELLS AND ALSO FEELS GREAT!
