TRULY NATURAL
It is our ethos that authentic skincare
must support your biology, your being
and all of who you are.
Many so called natural brands use nature-identical ingredients, which are
falsely preserved natural extracts, which the body does not recognise and
therefore processes incorrectly. This often leads to toxic build-up in the
fatty tissues, as this is where the body stores substances it cannot process.
This build up has been linked to cancer. Instead, Africology only uses bioidentical ingredients in its products and these are safe and easily processed
by the body.
Our preservative system is the milk enzyme lactoperoxidase, which is designed
to maintain the integrity of our products while fighting infection and
degradation. It is a very expensive ingredient, but we will use only the best to
ensure the health of our clients through clean and powerful formulations.

Africology Chakra Candle
In Life everything we need to know will be revealed to us, and everything we need will come to us when we are ready to receive.
Your energy centres are also known as chakras. These are energy pathways that are closely interlinked to your endocrine system. Metaphysically
interpreted, we are able to look at areas of our body that are uneasy, relate it to an energetic point, then interpret the emotional experience often
contained in that chakra. Awareness is the key to a healthy mind and body.
Remember that with willingness and with releasing and forgiving, the body heals itself. The key is to understand where in the body we hold on to
past pain or resentments. Select the colour or smell from each chakra candle, then see how the interpretation relates to your situation.
24
The Africology Chakra Massage candles are made up of 7 different candles representing each Chakra. Skillfully blended essential oils are created
for each candle which relates to that Chakra. Safe for massage, each candle shares a luxurious base of Shea butter, to deeply hydrate the skin.

We acknowledge that all REPAIRS and preventative processes begin with the SELF.
Our SKIN is an expression of the condition of our HEARTS & MINDS. What
we put on the outside can be seen as a process of assistance while we take care of our INNER
WORLD. It is also recognised that a relaxed state of mind engenders a POSITIVE
disposition, clarity of thought and greater PHYSICAL energy. We know that a positive
inner world creates an AGELESS being with unlimited POTENTIAL. We have
a passion for the HEALING power of PLANT life and the restorative power of essential
oils. At the same time we deeply respect the WISDOM of our traditional HEALERS
and it is our intention to share this wisdom with all and ACTIVELY work to preserve it.
Our aspiration is to help develop and heighten people’s CONSCIOUSNESS of their
POTENTIAL and give them the opportunity to LIVE their lives to the best advantage
and to CREATE a positive inner world, therefore becoming an AGELESS being
with UNLIMITED potential. A SAFER WORLD starts with the consciousness
of one PERSON. HONOUR all LIVING things. Support TRADE that
uplifts COMMUNITIES REPLACE what’s taken and used from EARTH.
Show GRATITUDE to NATURE. We believe in the PURIFYING
essence of South Africa’s wonderful INDIGENOUS healing plants, Rooibos,
Aloe Ferox, Marula and African Potato. The active ingredients in our skincare
products are POWERFUL agents in REPAIRING and RESTORING
damaged skin tissue. Our anti-ageing skincare system has been designed to function within
the body’s ENERGY field. We see the relationship between the body and MIND as
HOLISTIC. There is a DYNAMIC process of INTERACTION
between the SKIN and the ENERGY of the plant actives.
