INCI: Agave Tequilana Leaf Extract

Drizzle agave into your kitchen and DIY kit. Organically grown in the Karoo, this pale-gold syrup is an easy natural sweetener for smoothies, porridges, desserts and baking. It dissolves easily (hot or cold), caramelises neatly and makes a vegan alternative to honey. 

Why we love it: Beyond the pantry, agave works as a humectant in DIY beauty - adding slip, soothing and moisture to masks, scrubs, bath blends and body washes while being less sticky. It is naturally sugar-rich, which can help support both the skin and guts microbiome, while it can also be used to pre-wet xanthan gum before whisking into water.
