Several factors led Marina Volod to develop this new skin-care line. First, it was a logical response to the daily challenges she addressed in her own clinic. She felt strongly that the products she was using were not sufficient and did not provide the best skin care and skin nutrition for her clients. Second, she developed the Avitalin product line to complement the advanced, innovative skin treatments for which her clinic is known. Avitalin gives her the tools to achieve unparalleled, long-lasting results in the process of achieving healthy and vibrant skin, not only for her own clients but for all men and women who are concerned with their skin’s wellness.

S.W. Basics was created to be an absolutely, positively, 100% truly all-natural line. A lot of companies toss around the phrase “all natural” these days. Unfortunately, labeling laws for personal care products are extremely lax, and in their experience, “all natural” almost always translates to “not-at-all natural.” Our products are made simply using only the purest quality ingredients they can find. And because they believe every business has a responsibility to preserve a sustainable environment, all of their ingredients are either certified organic, Fair Trade, or sourced from small family farms.

PRODUCT
This is the mother of all S.W. Basics products. You know how lots of lotions and moisturizers leave you needing more, like ten minutes after you put them on? That’s because they use water as a base. When it evaporates, you dry out all over again. Their Cream starts with wild-harvested shea butter they get from an incredible Fair Trade women’s cooperative in Ghana. They add some organic extra-virgin coconut oil and organic extra-virgin olive oil. So it’s extremely rich, sinking deep into the skin and staying there. And it’s just as awesome on your face as it is on your body.

SAMPLE INCLUDED
Mini Size 1 0z

FEATURES
~Ultra Moisturizing
~Fair Trade and Organic

SCENT
Light creamy scent

HOW TO USE
Apply a small amount to thirsty skin. Store at normal room temperatures; will change consistency in heat and cold.

INGREDIENTS
Fair trade shea butter, organic coconut oil, organic olive oil
