Organic skin care for a clean conscience
As the light of the African dawn awakens the vast continent in a symphony of light, secrets of ancient medicinal remedies and rejuvenation, gifted from one of Earth’s most prolific plant kingdoms, are revealed.
All under the mighty planet Jupiter.
Our Story
I was motivated by a strong desire to help my Mom’s skin lesions and deeply discolored purple and black bruising on her arms and legs, not to mention the hyper pigmentation and liver spots which in turn were precipitated by skin cancer.
Can you imagine watching someone you love in pain and discomfort? We became frustrated with the products that were available. Either they didn’t work; some even compounded the problem, or were filled with chemicals. We also felt they were made with no concern for the environment. Where was the love? The final straw was when my wonderful Mom refused to wear short sleeved tops and dresses anymore because she felt shameful about her skin.
I had to find a solution for her. It had to be 100% natural and would not poison or harm her or her skin in anyway. Nature inspired, I sought only the finest quality and the purest ingredients and I vowed I would leave no stone un-turned.
The Journey
So began what I can only describe to you as a journey of the soul. In pursuit of sacred knowledge, I embraced a remarkable path that over the years yielded the most extraordinary synchronicity and enlightening experiences.
My exploration began with the southernmost region of the vast and ancient African continent which is arguably unrivaled for its magnificent variety of flora and fauna.
My love for the land and my Mum… and their matchless beauty, inspired me to delve deep into the continent’s rich botanical diversity in search of its ancient and timeless knowledge.
Over time, through patience, listening and learning, the hidden tapestry of plants and their beneficial properties to mankind in Africa began to reveal itself. The revelations and discoveries were in bits and pieces and learnt largely through engaging with a variety of African tribal elders or “keepers of the knowledge”. The wealth of their understanding of nature and its healing and rejuvenative offerings are understood by precious few from the western world.
In the true spirit of “ubuntu” over time they shared their atavistic and traditional African medicinal knowledge. Born from the necessity to survive and protect the skin from the harsh African climate.
Seed and flower oils have played a very big role in the daily lives of countless tribes throughout the African continent for thousands of years. Each tribe garnered and passed down from generation to generation the time honored knowledge that allowed them to meticulously extract and use these highly prized and deeply treasured oils for skin rejuvenation, protection and repair.
Different tribes sourced different oils that were specific and unique to their habitat. Each oil offered its own unique and magical healing and anti-ageing properties.
After innumerable trips, miraculous encounters and years of research my first product Jupiter Oil inevitably birthed.
