FAQ
How is Holly Oil made?
Holly Oil is derived from a pressing process. The oil comes from the branches and leafs of the holly plant and is then de-ionized. A water based Vitamin E (Cyclo-Alocaine) is then added along with Jojoba as a therapeutic moisturizer to add glide. The oil is not as thick as French Grapeseed of Sweet Almond which allows you to use less, not more.
