NEW! Olive Oil products

The olive branch has become an enduring symbol of peace and goodwill. Olives and their nutrient rich oil are enjoyed regularly by many of us. Not only is the oil a time-honoured culinary delight but has been used throughout the centuries to care for the skin to nourish, soften, smooth and protect it. Inspired by these virtues, Perfect Potion has embraced this highly regarded skin nourisher and formulated a certified natural olive oil skin care range made with certified organic and fair trade olive oil from the ancient fields of Palestine - the land of milk and honey.

The olive oil used in Perfect Potion products comes from the historic Nabali olive tree, the native olive tree of Palestine. It is certified organic, extra-virgin and cold-pressed and is harvested from orchards in the West Bank areas of Jenin, Nablus, Salfit and Ramallah.

Perfect Potion purchases this precious olive oil through Canaan Fair Trade who sells olive oil produced by over 1,700 small farmers, organised in village cooperatives and represented by the Palestine Fair Trade Association (PFTA).

Canaan Fair Trade uses the fair trade concept to empower marginalised Palestinian rural communities caught in conflict so they can sustain their livelihoods and culture. To that end, they have built direct working relationships with these communities, paying sustainable prices for their agricultural products to ensure fair wages for labor along the supply chain.

Canaan promotes cross-cultural, interfaith, and multi-ethnic connection of all participants in the production and trade processes: workers, farmers, processors, traders, exporters, importers, distributors, and consumers. The idea is to create one community connected by the fair exchange of goods in a cross-cultural setting.
