Ingredients

Jojoba oil, rosehip oil, sea buckthorn pulp oil, castor oil, copaiba oleoresin (tree resin), and marjoram.

See below for in-depth benefits.

Hydration Oil Use

Use the dropper to apply a 10c size amount of oil to your palm, apply to clean skin massaging into the face, neck, and décolletage, work into all areas especially where you find dry skin occurs. This may be a ritual before bed, allowing the oil to soak in to repair and hydrate the skin over night, or applied in the morning as a massage oil for lymphatic drainage and face sculpting techniques. This nutrient-rich oil combination is handy after a visit to the beach, to neutralise potential oxidative sun damage in the skin.

Cleanser Use

After wetting your face and neck with warm water, use the dropper to apply a 10c piece size to your palm. Massage into your face and neck for no less than 1 minute, really working into all areas. Using a warm wet flannel, wipe clean your entire face and neck. Dry your face with a soft and gentle towel and moisturize with a hydrating tallow balm, applying liberally to your face and neck with a self massage. 

Storage

Stored in an amber glass jar to preserve the oil quality. Restore the lid after use to avoid water mixing into the oil combination. Use within 12-18 months.

Ingredients

  • Jojoba

    Jojoba oil is not technically an oil, rather a liquid wax, it closely mimics our skin's natural sebum, allowing for deep absorption without any greasiness. Jojoba is rich in antioxidants; quercetin, vitamin e, vitamin a, and vitamin b complex. It is a potent anti-inflammatory and is one of most beneficial remedial products for psoriasis and eczema. It is very kind on sensitive skin and is a low irritant.

  • Copaiba Oleoresin

    Copaiba has anti-inflammatory properties and assists in the skin's surface integrity. It reduces the appearance of redness and blemishes. It has a beautiful spicy, woody scent that really adds to the oiling ritual.

    Oleoresins are more subtle on the skin than essential oils, perfect for those with skin sensitivities, or young children's skin.

  • Sea Buckthorn Pulp Oil

    The pulp oil, rather than the seed oil of the sea buckthorn berry, is rich in carotenoids - potent natural antioxidants - including β-carotene, lycopene, zeaxanthin, and lutein. This makes the pulp oil highly effective in scavenging free radicals that cause oxidative damage to the skin (sagging skin and premature aging). Rich in omega fatty acids, especially the unique omega 7, this oil strengthens the lipid barrier of the skin retaining moisture, reducing dry skin.

  • Rosehip

    Rosehip oil is an astringent (tightening) oil rich in lycopene, retinol, and vitamin c which promote skin elasticity, boost collagen, and prevents UV and environmental pollutant damage. Consistent rosehip oil usage improves even skin tone and reduces the visibility of sun spots.

  • Castor Oil

    Castor oil is a humectant that is naturally concentrated in ricinoleic acid, a potent antioxidant that deeply penetrates, softening the skin and protecting the skin from free radical damage. The thick viscosity forms a highly protective barrier, improving skin integrity. Castor oil contains stearic and palmitic fatty acids that hydrate and soothe the skin.

  • Marjoram

    Marjoram is a beautiful herb cultivated in warmer climates, the oil is an astringent (tightening) and regular use helps to reduce fine lines and sagging. The strong antioxidant content (carnosol) reduces oxidative stress from environmental pollutants and UV radiation, this reduction in oxidation minimises dullness in the complexion. Marjoram holds antimicrobial properties which makes it beneficial in your skin cleaning routine for a healthy complexion. The scent of marjoram is uplifting and slightly peppery, thought to combat mental fatigue.
