Description

Face Oil – Calendula, Rosehip and Geranium (Mature Skin)

Face oils are like moisturisers in that they bring hydration to the skin, but that’s where the similarities end. Moisturisers are water-based, and they help to lock water into the skin. Oils can’t add water, but they are masters at sealing in moisture and preventing it from evaporating from the skin’s surface. Facial oils are made from a blend of plant oils and come with a host of benefits, we’re talking more radiant skin, smoother skin and a natural looking glow. The right formula can help boost hydration, calm irritation and even help balance oily skin types.
Face oils are excellent at caring for the skin barrier function. Natural ceramides, fatty acids and lipids help to make up the top layer of the skin and facial oils are similar enough to our own oils to really replenish that barrier. All our face oils are 100% natural, vegan, cruelty free, and plastic free. Made in the UK

Creating a face oil tailored for mature skin with calendula, rosehip, and geranium involves selecting potent ingredients that target specific concerns such as hydration, nourishment, and skin elasticity. Here’s how you might formulate such a product:

1. Base Oils:
   • Rosehip Seed Oil: Rich in essential fatty acids, vitamins A and C, and antioxidants, rosehip seed oil deeply moisturizes the skin, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and improves skin tone and texture. It’s particularly beneficial for mature skin due to its regenerative properties.
   • Jojoba Oil: With its lightweight and non-greasy texture, jojoba oil closely resembles the skin’s natural sebum. It helps regulate oil production, balances moisture levels, and provides a protective barrier on the skin. Jojoba oil is suitable for all skin types, including mature skin.
2. Calendula Extract or Infused Oil:
   • Calendula: Known for its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties, calendula helps calm redness, reduce inflammation, and promote skin healing. It’s particularly beneficial for mature skin, which may be more prone to irritation and sensitivity.
3. Geranium Essential Oil:
   • Geranium: Geranium essential oil is known for its balancing and rejuvenating properties. It helps improve skin elasticity, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and promote a radiant complexion. Geranium oil is especially beneficial for mature skin, as it helps restore balance and vitality.
4. Additional Ingredients:
   • Vitamin E Oil: A powerful antioxidant, vitamin E oil helps protect the skin from free radicals and environmental damage. It also supports skin repair and regeneration, keeping the skin healthy and youthful-looking.
   • Squalane: Derived from olives or sugarcane, squalane is a lightweight and non-comedogenic oil that helps moisturize the skin, improve elasticity, and soften fine lines and wrinkles. It’s suitable for mature skin, which may benefit from extra hydration and nourishment.
5. Packaging:
   • Store the face oil in a dark glass bottle with a dropper for easy application and to protect the oil from light and air, preserving its freshness and potency.
6. Usage:
   • Apply a few drops of the face oil to clean, damp skin morning and evening. Gently massage it into the skin using upward motions until fully absorbed. Follow with a moisturizer or sunscreen if desired.

By combining these potent and nourishing ingredients, you can create a face oil tailored for mature skin with calendula, rosehip, and geranium that helps improve hydration, reduce the signs of aging, and promote a more youthful complexion.
