Keeping Your Skin in Harmony
& Walking In Beauty
with native inspired bath and body care.
Made locally by Victoria
White Eagle Noorlander,
Native herbalist, Reiki Usui and Karuna Teacher.
Victoria uses her native training
in sacred herbals to create a unique line of soaps, alcohol
free lotions, massage oils, soy candles and healing salve.
Victoria is known throughout Utah and Colorado for her healing
salve, made from locally grown piñon pitch and other
ingredients, gathered by her family in the Moab area. It is
a remedy that has been used by Native Americans for hundreds
of years. The traditional way of making salve was to melt
the piñon pitch with bear fat. When the Diné
people started using sheep they would mix it with mutton fat
or Vaseline bought from the local trading post.
Today
Victoria blends the pitch of native piñon trees with
coconut oil and soy oils to make this natural healing salve
more soothing to dry skin and so that it doesn’t clog
pores. Piñon pitch is best known for its ability to
accelerate cell regrowth and is effect in killing bacteria.
It helps to alleviate skin problems such as Eczema, Psoriasis,
Bruising, Cracked Heals and Cuticles, Sun Burn, Chapped Lips,
and neutralizes the poison from insect bites. You can also
use the salve on pets.
Victoria’s unique line of hand blended bath and body
care consists of Sage, Juniper and Sweet Grass as well as
some of the old time favorites such as Lavender, Vanilla,
Honey Almond and Fresh Garden Cucumbers. Victoria uses locally
harvested plants, essential oils , all vegetable tallow ingredients
and does not test her products on animals.
For those of us who have sensitive or damaged skin, her body
care products offer a more natural way to keep your skin balanced
and youthful. Victoria test her products herself to make sure
they are gentle, soothing and don’t clog pores. Moisturizing
for the driest of skin even in harsh desert climates like
Moab, Utah.
Loving aromatherapy herself but sensitive to colognes and
perfume, Victoria tries to offer products that are more user
friendly and safer for homes and the environment. Victoria’s
hand poured soy candles are a natural alternative for those
of us who love to burn candles but worry about carbon fumes.
Natural wax alternatives help support American farming. and
contributes to the reduction of dependency of crude oil and
has less soot output than paraffin.
