Wild yam ORMUS cream 18+ with Vitex Agnus Castus is a powerful cream combining ORMUS marine minerals with extracts and aromas traditionally believed to have a soothing power for feminine issues. Recommended for use one week after periods start through to the end of the cycle, apply to soft tissue areas morning and evening. The small molecules of the Macadamia Seed oil allow the ORMUS minerals and extracts of Wild Yam, Vitex Agnus Castus, Evening Primrose and Ginseng to more easily penetrate deep into the skin. 

The unique aroma in wild yam ORMUS cream 18+ comes from a proprietary combination of Basil, Clary Sage and Jasmine Absolute essential oils. These scents can have a calming effect and are held to have many other properties. We cannot make claims for our products beyond their skin care benefits according to burdensome Australian regulations, so we recommend doing your own research on these ingredients and what others claim for them. 

Ingredients: Concentrated monoatomic marine minerals, macadamia seed oil, palm-free glyceryl stearate (safe emulsifier), cetostearyl alcohol (emulsifying wax), dimethicone (silica skin protectant), vitamin E, allantoin (comfrey extract), aloe vera leaf extract, citric acid (derived from citrus fruit), micronized zeolite (volcanic minerals), wild yam extract, vitex agnus castus extract, ginseng extract, evening primrose oil, basil essential oil, clary sage essential oil and jasmine absolute essential oil.

Suitable for use from one week after periods begin through to the end of your cycle. Take a break of at least five days each month. CAUTION: DO NOT USE IF PREGNANT! If under the age of 18, please use SeaVitalise wild yam ORMUS cream for teens instead.

What is the differences between our Wild Yam Ormus 18+ cream and other similar creams (like Anna’s)?

I (Alina) created our Wild Yam ORMUS cream blends because I suffered for many years with Poly-Cystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). I used Annas cream but knew that it could be better. I researched a lot about natural remedies for hormonal imbalances and made this cream putting all of the best together. I also discovered that Vitex Agnus Castus was far too powerful an ingredient to use for teens and so switched it out with licorice root extract for our teens cream. Our Wild Yam ORMUS Creams are multipurpose, moisturising, mineralising and containing the active ingredients associated with hormonal balance, anti-inflammatory agents, stress reduction and more. In short, these creams are made to be powerhouses... to throw everything and the kitchen sink at something that impacts a high percentage of women. I have had dozens and dozens of positive testimonies from the use of these and my own testimony is that through lifestyle change and using products such as the one I created, I went from being told it was going to be very difficult to have children to having two children very easily. We got pregnant the first month we decided to have our first child and the second month when we decided to have our second. When not pregnant and having my cycle, I went from having as widely irregular periods of up to five months without down to regular and much less painful periods every 30 days. 

Citric Acid has two uses in skincare that can be confusing to people. The use that gets the most criticism is its use as an exfoliant for the skin. In these preparations, citric acid is in very high quantities, often up to around 20% of the formulation. As an exfoliant, citric acid is quite harsh. We do not use citric acid for this purpose. Citric acid is in only a minute quantity within our formulation and serves a very different purpose.

Most skincare products are either oil products or oil-water emulsions. SeaVitalise is unique in that it is oil + water + mineral salts from the ocean (ORMUS). Balancing oil and water is difficult enough, but salt adds another layer of difficulty to achieving a balance. Get the pH wrong and the entire cream can go rancid. The other purpose citric acid can have in skincare is for the balancing of pH, keeping a formulation from being too alkaline. ORMUS in its pure state has a high alkalinity. Citric acid is part of what brings about this balance in our products. This natural derivative is used in a very small quantity. Per litre, there is around 0.3g of citric acid. Per 100g jar, then, there would be only 30 milligrams or 0.03%.

Our skincare products are regularly used by people with excema and other dermatological issues who are unable to use anything else. We have testimony after testimony of this. This means that the citric acid is not present in any form that would exacerbate allergic responses. We would agree that in high quantities it would be harmful and deleterious. In the quantity it is (barely) present in our skincare it is there only to help us achieve the powerful combination of oil, water and salt that makes our skincare so nourishing. We do not use citric acid at all in our sugar-based exfoliating scrub formulation because we do not believe citric acid to be useful for this purpose when other ingredients are so much better and less harmful.
