ACTIVES & INGREDIENTS

Prevent, rather than cure! Our Holistic Facial Oil has been developed for the younger individual that is looking to prevent Premature Ageing. Enriched with a triple- action brightening complex, renowned for its ability to stimulate and fortify, the zesty blend is formulated to detoxify, refresh and hydrate the skin. 

 

Why Natural Oils?

Natural oils contain vitamins A, B1, B2, B5, B6, C, D, E. magnesium, copper, iron, amino acids sterols, pantothenic acid, lecithin, folic acid all of which vastly increase the collagen levels in the skin.

Vital oils, unlike creams, can penetrate into the lower layers of the skin making them the most effective skincare Vital Oils are rich in Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) and subsequently prevent premature aging. They contain minerals like omegas, proteins and beta-carotene, which slow the aging of cells. Vitamin A – a natural Retinol, which rejuvenates and nourishes the complexion, and Vitamin E, which aids cell regeneration.

We also use the highest grade of Essential oils, which bring order to cells and tissue, dispelling bacteria, and infection and stimulating cell repair.

Full Ingredients: Peach (Prunus Persica), Jojoba (Simmondsia Chinensis), Grapefruit (Citrus Paradisi), Orange (Citrus Sinensis), Patchouli (Pogostemon Cablin). Naturally occuring allergens: Limonene.

HOW TO USE

Apply 1 pump to damp skin. Massage in using small upward circular movements. The oil can be combined with the Blending Cream to lock in the Nutrients and matt the complexion as a perfectly prepped makeup base. If you are using a combination of the Night Cream, any of our Facial Oils or the Tightening Serum, these must all be used on separate evenings, using them all together is too much for your skin and it will not speed up the benefits.

Skin Care chemistry facts 

Over 90% of skin ageing is caused by atoms called free radicals. If free radicals overwhelm the body's ability to regulate them oxidative stress occurs, and this causes damage to the cells. As cells breakdown so does collagen production, resulting in loss of fibres and elastin’s. This results visibly on the skin through sagging, lines, wrinkles, and dullness to the skin.

IS RETINOL SAFE?


Retinol. We’ve all heard of it. Most of us have heard the horror stories. But do you know why Retinol is so harmful to your skin and a waste of your money? An official line on Retinol is “Retinol is a potent form of synthetic vitamin A. Data from an FDA study indicate that retinoid ingredients may speed the development of skin tumours and lesions on sun-exposed skin.” Let’s start with what Retinol does to your skin.


When Retinol is applied to your skin, it will prompt the surface skin cells to turnover and die rapidly, making way for the new cell growth underneath. Umm hold on a minute, that doesn’t even sound that bad does it? Well, by encouraging your skin to do this process you are not only burning the top layer of your skin, you are interfering with the molecular biology of those cells and disturbing the natural protection surface layer.


The new skin you are exposing has not had enough time to build up its natural protection and that can mean you are exposed to Skin Cancer, Pigmentation Spots and premature Ageing. This is no daily use product and we highly advise against any use of Retinol based products.


Are These Ingredients Safe?

  • Hyaluronic Acid 

No is the short answer! If you’re not using in a humid environment it can actually draw water/hydration out of your skin leaving it dryer and tighter than ever before It can be irritating, many products use a low molecular weight of HA to help it get into the skin, however, this low molecular weight has been shown in studies to be inflammatory for some skins, leading to redness, soreness and irritation. The production process that HA goes through to get to this molecular weight renders it a totally different substance to that which is found naturally in the body.

  • Vitamin C 

We love vitamin C in skincare as part of a natural organically derived formulation; it can brighten the skin and is an antioxidant that protects the skin, BUT most products on the market who use synthetic unnatural potencies so the answer is no: It can cause oxidisation for the skin - yes! The opposite of what you are told it does. Synthetic vitamin C can react very easily with other molecules, including oxygen, when this happens, it can lead to acne, collagen and elastin loss, inflammation and irritation

  • Silicones  

 The use of silicones in skincare baffles us, the only benefit it brings to any product is ‘slip’ - the way the product feels, it gives a velvety texture which then is transferred to the skin, so the skin can look smoother but there’s no actual skin benefit - yet another example of products being developed by marketing departments. In short, we don’t like them because They have zero therapeutic benefits to the skin.

Mainstream Brands Vs Natural Elements

Reversing the damage can be possible by stimulating cells and providing the necessary nutritional components cells need to stay strong and healthy. In typical skin care brands, these components are provided artificially through man-made chemicals or through artificial stimulus to provide ‘instant’ gratification results. 


However, extensive research has shown these synthetic stimulus & artificial nutritional benefits have long term negative effects, which include further accelerated ageing such as skin thinning, allergic reactions, environmental damage and even acceleration of cancer cells. 

The alternative to stopping free radical damage is through organic plant oils and fruit extracts, which have the necessary nutritional components cells needed for cells to stay strong and healthy. The purer and better quality the plant is turned into an oil the higher concentration of nutritional and vitamin benefits they have. 


The best way to intake the necessary components to slow free radical damage is high concentration oils. The oil molecule is better suited to be absorbed through the dermis skin layers and into the blood stream. Whereas a cream or gel is too large and will retain on the surface levels, providing great hydration benefits but little nutritional benefits. 


Molecular Geometry In Botanicals


We’ve spent the last 5 years working with UK universities in the longitude of human cells using the benefits found in botanical oils. We are the only natural skin care brand conducting this kind of ‘skincare beyond beauty’ research. We are looking at the long-term benefits of using organic oils vs the skin care industries current standard, which is based on providing instantaneous visible results (such as skin peels and retinols).


The term ‘conscious beauty’ is used quite often as a phrase to empathise a brands belief in concentrating holy on its customers and the environment. Yet, it often just appears on the surface and deep down the core of the brand acts almost soulless, ignoring its customers rather than helping & interacting with them.

Some of our oils are more expensive than others and this is down to the quality of the botanical oil and the rarity of the oils production. Simply put the better quality of the oil (and the higher concentration of benefits) the more expensive they become.
