Ilha Organics Praia Body Balm

My new obsession is with Ilha Organics Praia Body Balm. It soaks beautifully into skin, leaving you with the incredible aroma of lemongrass and citrus. This soothing skin balm is formulated with organic anti-oxidant rich green tea and restorative calendula flowers. I love how it leaves the skin silky and hydrated without any oily residue. This balm is great because “a little goes a long way”, and it is packed with 100% certified organic ingredients: Ylang ylang oil, ravensara oil, coriander seed oil, mandarin oil, and lemongrass oil scent the skin with an exotic citrus essence.

Karen Young, the creator of Ilha Organics and the home goods collection – Hammocks & High Tea, was inspired by her roots in South America to develop Ilha (meaning “island” in Portuguese). Using organic ingredients like calendula flowers, green tea leaves, and various essential oils, Karen has developed her own beautifully hand-blended collection of body balms, massage oils, and soaks.

Ilha Organics body and home goods are packaged to be reusable, recyclable, and have as minimal an effect on the environment as possible. All products are packaged in amber glass containers in order to protect the quality of their handcrafted ingredients and includes Ilha’s signature biodegradable jute bags that can be reused for packing small items, storage, and gifting. Ilha Organics balms and oils are steeped and blended in small batches, at low temperatures, and luxuriously scented with 100% organic or wildcrafted (produced without chemicals) essential oils.
