Beat flaky scalps, winter itchies, and scalp buildup with this gentle,
effective, and healing scrub. While formulated with the scalp in mind, Thriae
works great for the skin on the face and the rest of the body, too!

The Thriae were a trinity of pre-Hellenic Aegean bee goddesses, sometimes
called bee maidens or bee nymphs. Like many trinities, each of the three had
their own special gifts, and in the same turn, Thriae Scalp Scrub has three key
benefits:

Exfoliation: Thriae uses organic brown sugar as a gentle way to scrub away
buildup and flakes from the scalp. It is more gentle, and more effective, than
salt.

Moisture: Honey is a natural humecent, meaning that it helps draw moisture
inward. The natural oils help restore the natural scalp oils lost by cleansing
and also helps keep the moisture gained by the honey in the scalp.

Healthy Scalp Promotion: Honey is has natural antibiotic and antifungal
properties and this is coupled with the many benefits of the essential oils.
While detailed fully below, they include promoting hair growth, promoting scalp
circulation, reducing itching, PH balancing, and scalp soothing.

Directions:
Apply to damp or towel-dry hair. Sopping wet hair will dissolve the scrub
faster than you want, and if your scalp is too dry then the abrasion will be
too harsh. Try Thriae while soaking in a relaxing hot bath.

Scoop out a bit of scrub and work it down to the scalp with your fingers.
Don't worry if it gets on your hair, it won't hurt it at all! Work the scrub
into the scalp using a small, gentle circular motion, adding more scrub as
needed. When the scrub has dissolved, let it sit for a few minutes on your
scalp so the beneficial properties of the honey and Triple Moon Oil can work
their magic. Got leftovers on your hands? Work it into your face too, just be
careful not to get it in your eyes, nose or mouth. It won't kill you, but it
isn't a good idea to ingest anything with essential oils. Yes, it smells sweet
and yummy- don't eat it!

Water alone may not be enough to get the residue from the scrub out, so you
can use your favorite method of washing to remove it. As you rinse, be sure to
work your fingers at the scalp, ensuring that water can rinse things clean. You
may notice you shed a few more hairs than normal, this is expected and nothing
to worry about! The hairs that were ready to fall out in the next day or two
just got worked out a bit sooner with the scalp massage, you're not losing any
hair you weren't going to anyway! And that's it! Enjoy this whenever your scalp
could use a little extra attention!



Storage:
Store-bought beauty products contain synthetic ingredients to hold mixtures
together. Thriae , not having these synthetic ingredients, may separate. If it
has separated, simply stir until fully blended. If Thriae has become hard,
scoop out with a butter knife and gently crumble it in your hands before using.
Thriae Scalp Scrub has a shelf life of two years unrefrigerated, longer if kept
cool.



Detailed Ingredients Descriptions:

Certified Organic Dark Brown Sugar – Salt scrubs are sometimes dangerous to
your skin as the size of the grain can cause microscopic tears. Since brown
sugar has smaller particles, it is gentler and safer exfoliant.

Locally Sourced Raw Honey– Contains natural vitamins, enzymes, powerful
antioxidants and other important natural nutrients. These are the very
nutrients that are destroyed during the heating and pasteurization process. Our
honey is only sourced from local, ethical beekeepers who put the health of the
bees before all else, and use organic colony health management. Honey is a
humecent, so it draws moisture into the skin, while acting as a natural
antibacterial and antifungal treatment.

with high amounts of Vitamins A, D, and E, also has beneficial amounts of
lecithin, and unsaturated fatty acids. Deeply nourishing and conditioning for
the skin and hair it is a natural emollient (meaning it corrects scaling and
dryness), by helping upraised skin and hair cells lay flat, helping to increase
shine and keep in moisture. Cold-pressed oil, also called cold-drawn, or
virgin, oil, is purer than oil expressed with the aid of heat and retains more
of its natural benefits.

Evening Primrose Oil– Evening Primrose Seed Oil is pressed the seeds of the
Evening Primrose plant, Oenothera biennis . The yellow flowers only open in the
evening, hence their common name. Evening Primrose Seed Oil is a rich source of
gamma linoleic acid, an Omega 6 fatty acid and nourishes the scalp, hair, and
even your nails.

Shea Nut Oil– A beautiful oil with a deep golden color which is made by
cold-pressing the nut seed of the Shea (Karite) Tree. Shea oil is a byproduct
of Shea butter production where the pressing of the seeds produces a
fractionated oil. This oil leaves a smooth and healthy feel to the skin and
hair buy helping rough and upraised cells smooth back into place. It offers

cutaneous dryness and other irritations. Highly recommended as a protective
agent against harsh weather conditions where a mild barrier against the
elements is desired.

Nettle-Infused Oil– Fixed or essential oils are not obtained from this plant
but extracts are produced, although not by distillation. The plant, organically
grown, is macerated in virgin olive oil to produce nettle oil which contains
the lipid soluble constituents. Used for treating eczema and other conditions
causing itching of the skin and is natural deep cleanser useful for oily skin
and hair. Nettle is also said to promote hair growth.

anti-inflammatory, scalp soother. This oil is exceptionally rich in essential
fatty acids, carotenes, tocopherols, and phytosterols.

Bay Essential Oil– Bay is a scalp stimulant and antiseptic astringent and was
very popular with the Romans, who thought Bay was a symbol of wisdom, peace and
protection. The Latin Laudis means “to praise,” which is why the victors at the
Olympic games were presented with a Laurel (Bay) Wreath. The priestesses at
Delphi sat over the burning fumes to increase their prophetic visions.

Birch Essential Oil– Birch oil is another herb that is believed to help
promote hair growth. This herb is often recommended to people who may be
experiencing hair thinning, as it is also known to slow down hair loss.

Cedarwood Essential Oil– Excellent for both hair and skin care. It balances

earliest perfumes. Other ancient cultures used cedarwood for sarcophagi and
palace and temple building material.

as an emblem of the omnipotence of Ra through its power to restore wholeness to
the Self.

Lavender Essential Oil– Enhances hair growth by stimulating the scalp. The
name “lavender” is derived from the Latin lavare, meaning, “to wash” and was

and Romans perfumed their bathwater with lavender, burned lavender incense to
appease their wrathful gods, and believed the scent of lavender to be soothing
to untamed lions and tigers.

Red Thyme Essential Oil– Helps control an oily scalp and stimulates the scalp,
promoting hair growth. So important was the herb’s aroma that its name was
culled from the Greek thymon, meaning, “to fumigate.” Indeed Roman soldiers
bathed in thyme before entering a battle, and in the Middle Ages sprigs of
thyme were woven into the scarves of knights departing for the Crusades. Most
present-day research has centered on thyme’s ability as an antibacterial and
anti-infectious agent, even when diffused in the air.

Rosemary Essential Oil– An antimicrobial/antiseptic scalp stimulant and
soother; to the ancient Greeks and Romans the plant was sacred, symbolic of
loyalty, death, and remembrance, as well as scholarly learning. At weddings and
important occasions, wherever solemn vows were made, garlands and headdresses
of rosemary were worn, as an emblem of trust and constancy.

Sage Essential Oil– A scalp soother and astringent, the herb is of ancient
repute, valued as a culinary and medicinal plant – called herba sacra, ‘sacred
herb’, by the Romans

skin, this oil reduces the itching of an irritated scalp. The aboriginal
peoples of Australia soaked the pungent leaves in hot water and used them in
all manner of medicinal treatment.

stimulator. Indonesians spread the luxuriant flowers on the marriage bed of the
newly weeded couples. Ylang means “flowers of flowers,” sometimes called “the
perfume tree.”
