Esker Fields products are made with all natural ingredients that have a beautiful effect on the skin, body and mind. Usually, we use a combination of butters, carrier oils and essential oils.
Natural Butters
Mango Butter
Moisturizes, repairs and revitalizes the skin layers.
Shea Butter
Was used by Native African Drummers on their hands to protect them from cracks, dryness and hard use caused by hours of drumming. Rich in Vitamin E Shea Butter softens, protects against drying and nourishes the skin.
Cocoa Butter

Carrier Oils
Grapeseed Oil

Sunflower Oil

Coconut Oil
Has softening, moisturising and film-forming properties to protect the skin. It is anti-bacterial and along with cocoa butter, contains anti-oxidants which help fight free radicals in the skin.
Rosehip Oil
Is often called Natural Botox as it can help reduce the appearance of fine lines, blemishes and wrinkles. Regenerative and nourishing rosehip oil has a number of compounds that directly benefit the skin. Rich in vitamin A, it increases the elastin content, promotes collagen formation and helps to delay age-related breakdown of the skin and underlying tissues. It is also rich in vitamins E & C and helps to delay the onset of skin ageing, nourishing the cells and shielding against oxidation while creating a lipid barrier that protects and supports the skin. Rosehip is renowned for its ability to heal, maintain the texture and softness of the skin and treat scar tissues and blemishes.
Essential Oils
Frankincense
Is distilled from tree resin. Incisions are made in the bark and resin oozes out to heal the incision in the tree. This is what Frankincense will do in the body. It is excellent for healing skin problems, scars and wounds.
Lavender Angustifolia
Was discovered to have healing powers by Rene Gattefosse, regarded as the Father of Aromatherapy, when he burned his hand in a laboratory accident. Lavender is commonly associated with burns as it promotes rapid healing of the skin. It is beneficial for treating inflammation of the skin such as acne, dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis and wounds.
