Each of Esker’s targeted lines features a blend of organic essential oils that nourish your body’s specific skin type. Our product labels were designed as a visual guide to each unique blend. Learn about them here.
When it comes to clean beauty, thoughtfully formulated skincare and bodycare products are a must. That doesn’t mean it has to be complicated necessarily, but even simple formulas can get lost in translation. After all, not everyone is literate in ingredients labels. Ingredients are a top priority to us, but so is function—that’s why design is something we really took into consideration with the brand aesthetic. Streamlined minimalism and purposeful use of color serve as a visual reference for the concentration of essential oils that are included in our targeted lines as well as their natural colors found in nature.
- Juniper: A blue-green conifer tree, its essential oil is heavily featured in our firming formula for its ability to tone and reduce water retention.

Esker Body Oils also include a blend of organic carrier oils that work as antioxidant-rich, skin cell-nourishing moisturizers. Carrier oils are essential to our products because they allow us to dilute the essential oils so you can enjoy their benefits without fear of irritation.
Don’t worry, carrier oils don’t dilute the efficacy of the essential oils, they simply allow the essential oils to deliver their most powerful benefits without irritating the skin.
The next most important thing on Shannon’s list was to use the purest, highest quality organic oils that we were able to find. She turned to C02 Extracted Oils for Esker’s products.
What is a C02 Extract?
Traditionally, essential oils are derived using steam distillation, a process that yields a concentrated pure plant liquid. By contrast, a supercritical extraction - like a CO2 extraction - occurs from a process where pressurized gas dissolves the natural components of the plant into a liquid format.
CO2 oil extracts are incredibly potent and pure, having never been exposed to chemicals or heat. We use the supercritical extraction method in the production of our body oils to ensure that your skin is receiving the purest, most potent oils available that go the extra mile in hydrating and nourishing skin.
We didn’t forget about the scent
One of the greatest benefits of using high quality, organic essential oils in Esker products is that they also give a mind-soothing aromatherapeutic experience with every use. Bodycare has the potential to be an elevated self care practice when we consider a multi-sensory approach. That includes massaging nourishing oils into your skin, breathing in their mood-boosting and stress-relieving fragrant aura, and the relaxation of taking time to care for your whole body.
