Are Agerasia skin care products and soy candles manufactured in Australia?
Yes we source manufacturers around Australia for both our skin care range and our soy candles. Some of our manufacturers are small businesses and we often try to support and encourage other small business owners. This means that some things are still hand made, a real person in our community is working extra hard to support their dream and family.
That is what Agerasia is all about and we will continue to do this.
Why aren’t all Agerasia’s natural ingredients organic?
We source only the finest cosmeceutical grade ingredients, organic where possible.
You can find the organic grade ingredients by looking through the ingredients list, they are marked with * after each one. Some ingredients include essential oils and wildcrafted ingredients that work in powerful synergies to formulate a better result for you. Not all organic ingredients will work efficiently to bring you a quality product with the result we are after and so we source higher quality over organic in these cases.
What is the shelf life of Agerasia products?
We recommend a shelf life unopened and stored correctly as notified individually on each label. If you are in a warmer climate where temperatures exceed 30 degrees then we recommend you store your products in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Our Soy Candles are 100% natural, this means they can melt at a certain temperature and should also be kept inside away from direct sunlight.
Are Agerasia products suitable for vegans?

Are Agerasia products suitable during pregnancy and breastfeeding?
It is always advised you talk with your practitioner if you have any queries relating to use of any products.
Agerasia use only natural ingredients from fruit or plant extracts so although all should be fine there are some small details to be notified of. Lavender is used in Agerasia Moisturising Sunscreen SPF 15 and in our Superfood serum, it is advised not to use lavender during pregnancy as it is a powerful oil that has sedative properties which cause it to be a uterine stimulant, causing contractions. The lavender in our products is of small dose for the purpose of scent however, it is always advised to ask your Doctor first.
How long do Agerasia products last once opened?
We always advise that you use your Agerasia products once opened with in the period of 6 months.

So please make sure once all our stock is on your end that you separate into your recycling bin.
Do you use palm oil?
There is a growing concern for Orangutan extinction with the use of palm oil and its derivatives. Unfortunately most consumers think the word palm oil must be written on the ingredient list, however this is not the case. Palm oil derivatives come under 200 different names making it very difficult. We are highly ethical and environmentally aware, therefore every ingredient we purchase must be sustainably sourced. The future of orangutans depends on businesses like ours making the conscious decision to avoid these unsustainable ingredients.
Do you allow wholesale accounts?
We will take enquiries for wholesale accounts, at this very moment we are a small business but will consider possibilities of working beside like minded ethical companies wanting to expand their range.
