Linfa is the Italian word for both lymph and sap- a beautiful parallel between the fluids that flow through us and those that flow through the trees. This silky, mousse-like body butter is based off of nourishing grass-fed tallow, ghee, and nilotica shea infused with four herbs that provide support to our lymphatic flow.

Juniper berries, dandelion, cleavers, and calendula have all been treasured in herbal medicine for their ability to stimulate the lymph system, aiding in drainage and detoxification. These herbs paired in a base of decadent saturated fats provides a deeply moisturising body butter that can be massaged in all over for dry skin, water retention, skin tone, and connecting deeper with ones own body.

Apply all over to skin and massage in. To seal in extra hydration, use while skin is still damp from the shower. Use with body brushing or lymphatic massage to maximise the flow that the herbs in Linfa support.

  • Tallow

    Rich in antioxidants and vitamins (such as A, D, E, and K), tallow can really do it all. Being a saturated fat, tallow is highly stable and bioavailable to our cells. The tallow found in our products are organic and grass-fed to ensure the highest purity and nutritional value. Tallow sinks right into the skin leaving it soft and nourished.

  • Lymph Supportive Herbs

    Linfa features a potent infusion of dandelion, juniper berries, cleavers, and calendula. Together these herbs are known to help to support lymphatic flow to reveal refreshed and glowing skin and an invigorated detoxification system. Thanks to these herbs, Linfa provides so much more than just skin nutrtion and moisturisation.

  • Ghee

    Ghee is more than just a nutritious food, and has been used medicinally in Ayurveda for centuries. Ghee contributes to soft and supple skin and helps to reduce oxidative stress. Like tallow, it is full of fat-soluble vitamins and is deeply moisturising. Our ghee is both organic and grass-fed to ensure the most nutrition and the highest purity.

Full Ingredients

Ingredients:
grass-fed tallow*,

Deeply moisturising and nourishing, tallow contains many antioxidants and beneficial fatty acids that have a curative effect on a vast range of skin concerns, from medicinal to beautifying. Tallow is pure nutrition for the skin. Being both grass-fed and organic, this tallow is vitamin-rich thanks to the sunshine and grass that the animal was sustained on, as well as free from any pharmaceutical contaminants that are still given to cows that are grass-fed but not organic.
grass-fed ghee*,

Golden ghee contributes to glowing and supple skin. Filled with antioxidants and vitamins, ghee is amazing skin-food and is used to moisturise and brighten the complexion

With sourcing and purity being the of the utmost importance, this ghee is both organic and grass-fed, traditionally made, and is of the highest quality.
Butryospermum parkii nilotica butter*,

Cold-pressed, unrefined nilotica shea is the queen of all shea butters, with more essential fatty acids than regular shea. With a texture that is both rich yet light and silky, nilotica further enhances the smoothness of this formula while imparting a boost of vitmamins A and E.

It's more difficult to come by nilotica that is certified organic, but it was important for us to source one that is!
infused with Calendula officinalis*,

Sunny calendula flowers are widely loved and used medicinally in topical formulations. This herb is supportive of the lymph system and super softening and soothing to skin.
Galium aparine*,

Cleavers are another great for helping with swelling and edema by helping our lymph and liquids to flow.
Juniperus communis*,

Juniper berries are detoxifying and decongesting to the skin, as well as being full of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. They have a lovely grounding yet refreshing scent.
Taraxacum officinale**,

Humble dandelion is another lymph loving herb. It can be of benefit to a wide range of skin conditions, reducing inflammation and toxicities that lead to congestion and irritation.
Cera alba*,

Beeswax helps to stabilize this cream while locking moisture into the skin.
Rosmarinus officinalis extract

Rosemary extract is a potent antioxidant added to help further support the shelf life of this product.

What We Offer

Organic, Wildcrafted, and Grass-Fed

Sourcing is at the forefront of Flora Numina products. Our botanicals and flower essences are organic or wildcrafted, and animal-based products are both organic and grass-fed (where applicable). We believe that if natural products are tainted by chemical influences such as pesticides and genetically modified ingredients, they can do more harm than good. We would rather miss out of making a product or using an ingredient if not available at a high purity than compromise on this belief.

Animal-Based

Our skincare is focused on using healing and nourishing animal-based saturated fats. Products like tallow and ghee are highly stable, meaning they do not easily oxidise like unsaturated plant oils (such as rosehip oil, sunflower oil, and grapeseed oil which are all so popular in skincare). This is important as oxidisation can lead to skin damage, aging, inflammation, and so on.

In addition to stability, animal-based fats are loaded with fat-soluble vitamins, fatty acids, antioxidants, and so on that feed and repair our skin, no matter the concern or skin type.

Since animals can store toxins in their fat, it is integral to source fats from healthy animals. This is why Flora Numina uses exclusively organic and grass-fed tallow and ghee harvested from pastured, healthy cows.

Practitioner Formulated

Flora Numina was founded by a certified flower essence practitioner and licensed acupuncturist who sought to bring her formulations to a larger population. With in-depth experience both personally and professionally with flower essences and herbal medicine, the offerings at Flora Numina are nuanced, intuitive, and made with love for both the plants and the people.

Respectfully Cultivated

Interacting with nature, Flora Numina ingredients are sourced respectfully with gratitude for the life force behind every botanical and animal-based ingredient. Where relevant, sustainable wildcrafting and ethical farming practices are employed.
