What's in a Name? - Skin & Haircare - Kitchen Witch Co.

August 11, 2020

What's in a Name? - Skin & Haircare - Kitchen Witch Co.

Should you choose a lotion that feels fantastic and soothes your skin? Absolutely. Feeling bad about the sometimes harsh and hard to pronounce ingredients? Worry about your family's safety? Never fear. We're here to help. Here at Kitchen Witch, our goal is to create luxurious products with simple, clean ingredients. Where possible, we source our ingredients locally. We go see the beehives, meet the farmers, and grow many of our favorites in our organically managed herb and veggie gardens. We have included the big, often hard to pronounce names required on cosmetic labels for clarity.

Cetyl Alcohol: This is not alcohol like you would drink or use for sanitizing. Cetyl alcohol thickens products, is a co-emulsifyer, is mildly emollient, has moisturizing properties, and can help with foam and lather. 

Cetearyl Alcohol - Again, this isn't something you would find at a bar. Maybe a beauty bar. Cetearyl alcohol is the love child of cetyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol.

BTMS-25: BTMS is a conditioning emulsifier used in hair and skin care. Easy on hair and skin, and direcived from Colza oil (Colza (Brassica napus) seed oil).

When Natural Isn't Always Best

February 17, 2021

At Kitchen Witch Co., taking the natural approach to life is, well, just plain natural. Once in a while, though, natural isn't always best. Synthetic mica, or fluorophlogopite, has benefits that extend beyond being cruelty-free.

What's in a Name? - Oils & Butters - KitchenWitch.Co

August 11, 2020

Scared of the long names on commercially produced products? They are not as scary as those multiple syllable names look. The long, hard to pronounce names are international nomenclature to ensure that labeling is clear and understandable in anywhere in the world. We have also included information about the oils and waxes, and how we use them.
