Prickly Pear Seed Oil: the Protector
This oil offers you two beautiful moisturizing benefits: light texture + deep penetration, which will gifts you with extremely soft and velvety skin. It is high in tocopherols (vitamin E) and omega-6 fatty acids, both of these get to work nourishing + protecting the skin.
The high levels of vitamin K and zinc in this oil help to lighten under-eye circles, heal dark spots, and reduce scarring. Packed with amino acids + antioxidants this beauty of an oil helps to improve skin elasticity and appearance, especially for dry or slightly aging skin types.
Camellia Seed Oil: the Deliverer
Camellia oil is a very lightweight, dry oil, that has a very similar makeup to our sebum, which is your skin’s natural oil. That means that when applied, the molecules are small enough to be absorbed into the skin immediately instead of sitting on top of the dermis, which helps to lock in moisture, which of course keeps your skin smooth and hydrated throughout the live-long day. Can I get an AMEN?
Not only that, it’s packed full of skin-perfecting nutrients which help preserve the youthful glow of your skin and combat those dreaded wrinkles. This oil delivers!
Fun fact: Historically, this is the oil the Japanese Geisha’s used to keep their skin smooth + gorgeous.
Calendula Oil: the Comforter
Calendula Oil is a great option for your skin. It has so many calming, healing, and anti-inflammatory qualities. It can calm sensitive skin, relieve redness + soothe the skin after acne breakouts.
Where does it come from? it is extracted from those cheerful + happy Pot Marigold flowers. Its mild properties relieve many types of skin conditions and also support your skin’s healing process.
Argan Oil: the Doer
Derived from the kernels of the argan tree, it’s packed with a slew of antioxidants, vitamins, and essential fatty acids that do absolute wonders for skin. It offers deep hydration + antioxidant protection without clogging pores.
You need this now, am I right?
Be Well,
