As a company, it is very difficult and unnerving when a new formulation must be introduced; however, every so often we must adjust our formulas to meet new guidelines and regulatory mandates issued by either State or Federal authorities/agencies.

This is one of those times, and we are extremely excited and proud to announce that all our Elbow Grease Cream formulas are now Paraben Free.

Our chemist and laboratory worked very hard to remove all parabens and replaced them with a natural ingredient.  After extensive research and testing, our R & D team was able to identify the key ingredient needed to replace all parabens.  Elbow Grease Cream now features Crambe Abyssinica seed oil.

Crambe Abyssinica seed oil benefits:

1. A truly unique molecular structure that is not found in any other naturally occurring substance.

2. It is very resistant to oxidation, unlike many plant oils, as it contains a high percentage of C22 fatty acids.

3. This oil is easily absorbed and does not leave a sticky or greasy feeling behind.

4. Abyssinian Oil contains an abundance of both Linoleic and Linolenic Acids. Linoleic Acid, an Omega 6 fatty acid, is helpful with skin regeneration, while Linolenic Acid, an Omega 3, is anti-inflammatory, cell-communicating, and skin conditioning.
