ORGANIC GRAPESEED OIL ¹ – SOOTHING & MOISTURISING

High in linoleic acid (70%), grapeseed oil is a light oil easily absorbed by skin. It is rich in vitamins A, B, C, and E, as well as essential fatty acids, all of which nourish the skin, allowing it to regenerate and restructure. Being rich in vitamin E too makes this oil anti-inflammatory and act as an antioxidant. Our organic grapeseed oil is cold pressed, and comes from Parma, Italy.

 

MARULA SEED OIL – AFRICA’S BEAUTY SECRET

Dubbed the ‘miracle oil’, marula seed oil works hard to keep skin looking youthful. High in anti-oxidants to protect against damaging free radicals, and oleic acid to seal in moisture. Vitamins C and E work together to improve skin tone, firmness, and elasticity, whilst softening the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Our marula seed oil is cold pressed, and comes from South Africa.

 

LEMON SEED OIL – FOR MOISTURE RETENTION

High in Oleic acid (64%) and rich in Linoleic acid (26%), lemon seed oil helps rejuvenate skin, whilst providing hydration. This omega rich and vitamin rich oil helps skin retain moisture too, and has a very delicate lemon scent to it. Our lemon seed oil is expeller pressed, and comes from Egypt.

 

ROSEHIP OIL – A NATURAL RETINOL

Rosehip oil is one of the few oils which has been clinically proven² to increase skin moisture, elasticity, and reduce wrinkles. It is anti-inflammatory with a high vitamin A content (Trans-retinoic acid – a natural retinol), which assists with cell regeneration and increases levels of collagen and elastin, helping to fade scars, soften lines and wrinkles. The high linoleic and linolenic acid content makes the oil thinner, yet still able to nourish and protect. Sensitive and dry skins are soothed by this oil. Our rosehip fruit oil is cold pressed, and comes from France.

 

MEADOWFOAM SEED OIL – SKIN SOFTENING

Rich in Omega 9 fatty acids, meadowfoam seed oil slows trans epidermal water loss and locks in moisture. Because its composition is similar to skin’s natural oil (sebum) it brings balance to skin, so isn’t too dry or too oily. Vitamins A, B, C, D, and E are rich in this oil, giving it an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory boost which, combined with its skin conditioning properties, is ideal for plumping out lines and wrinkles. Our meadowfoam seed oil is cold pressed, and comes from Italy.

 

POMEGRANATE SEED OIL – PROMOTES SKIN REGENERATION

Pomegranate seed oil has been found to stimulate the cells in the epidermis and promote its regeneration³, which boosts skin tone, fades fines lines, and revitalises the skin. It may even help reverse skin damage. Its high polyphenolic content helps make it anti-inflammatory, and its high ellagic acid content means it is also a punchy anti-oxidant, helping to fend off damaging free radicals, which will also help keep skin looking young. Health and elasticity of the skin is renewed. Our pomegranate seed oil is cold pressed, and comes from Europe.

 

CAMELLIA SEED OIL – LIGHT & HYDRATING

Camellia Seed Oil (White Tea) is a delicate oil, which is easily absorbed by skin without blocking pores. Used for centuries in Asian skincare, this oil is rich in oleic acid (85%) and a rich source of omega 3, 6, 9, and polyphenols. Vitamin A helps skin to regenerate naturally, improving its structure and moisture.  Our camellia seed oil is cold pressed from wild Camellia Seeds, and comes from China.

 

ORGANIC ARGAN OIL ¹ – SKIN PROTECTING

A punchy antioxidant with very rich levels of vitamin E, organic argan oil helps protect skin from damaging free radicals, which form when skin is exposed to pollution. Rich in saponins which have been shown to soothe skin, the oil reduces inflammation and restore the skin’s water lipid layer. It is a non-greasy protective oil. Our organic argan oil is cold pressed, and comes from Morocco.

 

VITAMIN E 4 – A NATURAL ANTI-OXIDANT

Our Vitamin E is 100% natural, extracted from the soy bean. It is anti-inflammatory and a natural anti-oxidant, and helps ensure the essential oils do not oxidise when in contact with the air. It is a regulatory requirement to include Vitamin E in natural skincare blends, and we have chosen to use the natural version of it.

 

ORGANIC SWEET ORANGE ESSENTIAL OIL ¹ – DETOXIFYING

This fresh and uplifting essential oil is said to have circulation boosting properties, and helps detoxify skin. It is also said to have anti-bacterial and astringent qualities, which makes it a cleansing and purifying oil.
