You’ve tried them all, the newest fix for sensitive skin, yet no matter what you try your face is still inflamed, dry and itchy. You’ve spent ages trying to work out what triggers your sensitivities and it takes forever to choose a product, looking at labels trying to avoid the ingredients you react to. Your skin becomes red, inflamed, and sore as soon as you try something new and you’re back to square one again!

                                     Does this sound familiar? 

Give your skin a break and get into natural products.  Lots of people with sensitive skin react to synthetic fragrances, preservatives and fillers.  Our products aren’t like this, we carefully select soothing ingredients; plant oils and botanicals that work with your skin, rather than trying to fight it. By using the right combination of natural plant oils that compliment and work with your skin you can find relief…

Finally!

We have chosen rich, nourishing, yet light weight, dry feeling oils to help soothe your sensitive skin and your soul. Made from a blend of Rosehip and Evening Primrose oils, your skin will feel nourished, and soothed without the irritation.

We’ve infused our Soothe face oil with calming, healing calendula to help soothe sore, sensitive skin. With our unique essential oil blend that we blend in-house from Geranium, Lavender and Palmarosa oils, this floral, fruity face oil will immediately soothe your mood as well as your face.

Soothe Face Oil is VEGAN friendly

30ml in an amber glass bottle – please reuse or recycle your bottle after use.

You can choose to receive your face oil either as a ‘standard’ packaging option – with a dropper pipette which can be reused with your next bottle – or as a ‘refill’ option – with an aluminium cap which can be recycled after use. We’re all doing our bit to help reduce plastic use in our homes.

Some of the ingredients we have chosen include:

Rosehip Oil is regenerative and nourishing. With high levels of alpha-Linolenic and linoleic acids, vitamin A increases skin elastin and promotes collagen formation. Vitamin E helps delay the onset of skin aging, protecting the cells against oxidation. Its tannin content adds to the astringent nature of the oil, creating a nourishing, yet dry non greasy feel. Rosehip oil has been known to help with wrinkles, age spots, UV damage, scar tissue, blemishes and difficult skin conditions. An absolute powerhouse!

Evening Primrose Oil has high levels of GLA (Gamma Linoleic Acid) which helps reduce inflammation, supporting the immune system and hormonal balance.  It can also regenerate, firm and rejuvenate the skin's barrier function and maintain skin elasticity.  Gallic acid speeds up healing and catechins are anti-bacterial.  The tannins in the oil help it to feel light on the skin.  Evening primrose oil provides nourishing and conditioning properties that are taken up by the skin easily, carrying the protective and nutritional compounds into the skin layers. 

Calendula has been known for generations as an anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and soothing herb that can help alleviate a range of skin conditions.

Palmarosa Essential oil has a fresh floral sweet scent. It can be helpful for balancing dry, oily and combination skin types.

Rose Geranium Essential oil has a longstanding reputation as an essential oil particularly suited to women. It is supportive of the reproductive system and is also astringent, balancing the skin's production of sebum. Emotionally the oil is uplifting, as it can help with anxiety and depression.

Lavender Essential oil has been used for hundreds of years as it has a multitude of benefits.  It is antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal.  It is thought to stimulate cell growth and therefore regeneration of the skin. Lavender calms down inflammation and speeds up wound healing.  The scent can help calm stress and anxiety and of course aids sleep.

How to use:

Apply 3-4 drops of oil to the palm of your hand, rub hands together and gently massage into clean skin on your face and neck, inhaling the aromatic scent to relax your mind and lift your mood.

Give yourself a lovely relaxing face massage by using the oil on a damp face or mix a few drops with some water in your palm to allow it to spread smoothly and lock in the extra moisture.

Add a few drops to your favourite face mask or moisturiser to give your skin an added nourishing boost.
