    Committed to Organic Purity

    Pangea Organics offers you our serious commitment to using beneficial, organic, raw ingredients, providing open-disclosure and transparency of ingredients and operating under responsible business practices that benefit people and planet. We carefully select the highest quality fatty acids, essential oils and botanical extracts that nature has to offer while avoiding ingredients that have been processed with petrochemicals.

    Our mission is to bring your skin the purest, most biocompatible nourishment and to delight your senses with skin-beneficial aromas while avoiding the common toxins found in many conventional products. Our formulas are designed to quicken the skin’s own regeneration cycle, restore your complexion’s radiance and tone, soothe your skin and senses with unique, therapeutic aroma blends, protect from environmental damage and promote an overall youthful radiance.

    It is a documented fact that organic botanicals are more nutrient-dense than their non organic counterparts. By using organic ingredients, we offer effective anti-aging, restorative skincare blends that deeply nourish and offer long-term skin benefits.

    Anti-Aging Results

    With the ancient wisdom of Mother Nature as our guide, we source organic antioxidants for anti-aging and restorative benefits. The high antioxidant content in our products helps defend the skin against free-radicals (a primary cause of the physical signs of aging), supports collagen retention, helps stimulate micro-circulation, gently purifies, brightens skin tone and helps prevent discoloration and moisture-loss.

    Biocompatible Hydration

    Pangea Organics formulates with bioavailable hydration (easy for the body to absorb and assimilate) and skin restoration in mind. We design long-lasting hydration formulas to restore suppleness and deliver optimal moisture levels for each skin type. Our unique combination of humectants, emollients and protein rejuvenating agents immediately relieves dehydrated skin, prevents further moisture loss and protect from environmental damage. A few noteworthy hydrators found in nature:

    • Essential Fatty Acids

    Pangea Organics uses cold-pressed, food-grade oils that are rich in fatty acids Omega-3, 6 and 9 and offer a multitude of skin-beneficial nutrients. Fatty acids help to plump the skin and impart substantial hydration by allowing heightened moisture retention to smooth and soften, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

    • Rose Eye Cream
    • Rose Lip Balm
    • Hylauronic Acid

    A naturally-occurring substance found in the skin that has phenomenal water-binding capabilities. The amount of hylauronic acid produced by the body decreases with age, rendering topical supplementation beneficial to all skin types for improving visual radiance. Appropriate for all skin types to use daily, hylauronic acid delivers biocompatible, oil-free hydration that protects and restores suppleness.

The plant botanicals in our formulations not only provide luxurious aroma but also impart their skin-type-specific benefits to soothe, purify, hydrate, nourish, calm, protect and restore your precious skin.

    • Geranium Essential Oil

    Geranium is an invaluable essential oil, beneficial for restoring balance to all skin types. It is great for many skin conditions from sensitivity to acne to an overabundance of oil, and even helps to dissolve blackheads. Its high antioxidant content makes it ideal for anti-aging and anti-acne formulations.

    The beautiful yellow flowers of the calendula plant (also known as the pot marigold) are used on the skin for their antifungal, antiseptic, and astringent properties.

As a bath herb, calendula flower is used for dry skin.

    The rose, a “symbol of the soul”, is one of the world’s most precious flower oils, with the essence of 2,000 petals in every drop.

It is hydrating, emollient, soothing, protecting, rejuvenating and toning, leaving the skin feeling supple, soft and full. Its historical roots run deep in both aromatherapy and skincare. Some believe rose oil can awaken the heart as well as combat melancholy and tension. It’s no wonder rose is considered the “queen of flowers”.
