Face Oil – Lavender Calendula & Rosehip (Normal/Combination)
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
