Napiers Wild Yam Skin Cream

Wild Yam Cream with diosgenin from Wild Yam

Similar to Anna's Wild Yam Skin Cream, Napiers Wild Yam is perfect for skin that has become dry, papery, and lacking in moisture during different phases of life. Trusted for more than 160 years.

Napiers Wild Yam Cream has been used in our clinical practice in Edinburgh for many years. Recently, more people have shown interest in Wild Yam Skin Cream due to the popularity of Anna’s Wild Yam Cream in Australia. Although Napiers' cream predates Anna's Wild Yam Cream by many years, both creams were created similarly.

This skin cream is specifically designed for those seeking the additional support of herbs. Customers also report that it makes an excellent face cream for thin, dry, mature skin.

We use a high-strength Napiers fluid extract of Wild Yam, containing diosgenin, to make our cream. Additionally, we include marigold, vitamin E, and a small amount of colloidal silver as a natural preservative.

Contains Wild Yam (Dioscorea villosa) and Marigold (Calendula officinalis). Based on user and clinical feedback, we have removed the neroli essential oil previously present in this formula to make the product more hypoallergenic, suitable for sensitive skin, and inclusive for all.

Maltodextrin comprises just 0.001% of the formulation. It is included in the formula as part of the processing for the Colloidal Silver. Maltodextrin, even at this miniscule level, helps bind silver nanoparticles to particles to ensure it is more stable. We use colloidal silver as our preservative and as an anti-inflammatory.
Anyone over the age of 18, or post-puberty, can use the cream. For those still going through puberty we advise caution and to speak with a qualified medical professional or herbalist to ensure this product is suitable for them.
