Working with local BC based small businesses, enables us to help support the local economy where we can.
The great news is that thanks to the partners we have chosen, the quality of the ingredients is second to none. Below are two of a selection of small local businesses from which we currently source ingredients.
Local Supply Partners
Island Essentials products use only Baraka Shea. Fair Trade and Organic we believe this is the best shea butter available. Baraka are located in BC, Canada & import the shea butter from Northern Ghana.

“There is something extra special about our Shea, the women who make Baraka Shea Butter do everything by hand, using age-old techniques passed down through generations. Every time anyone purchases Baraka Shea Butter, or any products made with it; they have a direct impact on the women, families, and communities in northern Ghana.”
We use Damali Farms lavandin oil in our: Natural Essential Oil Pure Blend Luxurious Lavender.
This full bodied oil, is island grown and distilled, when blended with other lavenders it forms an incredible symphony of lavender.
Incredible lavender grown on Vancouver Island, BC
Damali lavender is grown and processed on the property. Using our steam distillation system we extract lavender essential oil.
