Former massage therapist Caroline Duell recently began producing her line of [natural skincare products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-lush-skincare) made from olive oil, beeswax and powerful medicinal herbs. Her company is called 'Elemental Herbs' and the high-quality lips balms, lotions and creams provide consumers with a natural alternative to commercial skincare products.

Elemental Herbs produces a wide range of products that include sunscreens, lotions, [lip balms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/healing-lip-oil), oil blends and hand sanitizes. Each of the products are toxin-free and made from all-natural ingredients such as organic oils, plant extracts and medicinal herbs. However, Elemental Herbs is not just beneficial for consumers. Duell's products are entirely [cruelty-free](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beauty-kitchen-pure-collection) and sourced from farms that use non-invasive wild land farming methods. The idea is to cultivate a triple bottom line business by fostering environmental sustainability, social consciousness and economic vitality.
