Don’t get it twisted, our “Face Oils” are far from limiting! Be it irritation or blemishes, our oils are super versatile when it comes to spot treating any part of the body.

Here’s just a few ways our nourishing plant oils can help heal & beautify your skin, from head to toe!

BODY ACNE

Whether those blemishes are sprouting on your face or body, these oils have what it takes to keep your complexion clear.

Tamanu Pure Oil
This Polynesian oil has amazing skin-regenerative abilities. Its antibacterial & antimicrobial properties help to combat stubborn acne bacteria, while also speeding up the healing process for new blemishes & refining the appearance of textured scars.

HYPERPIGMENTATION

Uneven skin tone can be commonly found in many areas across the face & body. You’ll need nourishing active ingredients to brighten up these areas.

The ultimate Glow-Up oil! Incredibly rich in antioxidants like Vitamin C & Lycopene which work to refine the skin’s texture & brighten up those dark spots. Its high content of nourishing Omega Fatty Acids 3, 7, & 9 also help to treat & prevent sun damage. Mix it together with any of our other Pure Oils or Gentle Oil to dilute its bright colour, for a more discreet way to treat pigmentation.

STRETCH MARKS

While stretch marks can sometimes be difficult to eliminate completely, these oils help your skin regenerate more efficiently, thus helping to reduce the appearance of deep, inflamed stretch marks.

Argan Pure Oil
An extremely moisturising oil that is safe to use even during pregnancy (as are all of our Pure Oils & Gentle Oil)! It's incredibly high Vitamin E content helps promote faster skin-regeneration & increase skin elasticity, making it a great preventative treatment. Regular application of Argan oil on your existing stretch marks can also reduce the appearance of those angry, red tiger stripes by deeply moisturising & reducing inflammation.

Its protective properties help nourish & reduce the appearance of old & new stretch marks. The addition of healing EO’s like Lavender & German Chamomile also help to brighten scars, refine skin texture, & reduce inflammation.

SCARS & DERMATITIS

From fading away textured or pigmented scars, to soothing flare ups of inflamed dermatitis, this duo has all you need to speed up the healing process & nourish your skin.

Tamanu Pure Oil
The wound healing properties of Tamanu oil can drastically improve the appearance of indented or raised scars, as well as flare-ups of dermatitis, such as eczema & psoriasis. Its antibacterial & antimicrobial properties work to refine the skin texture, while also deeply hydrating dry, scaly skin and reducing inflammation.

DRYNESS & IRRITATION

Cracked, dry skin can be a stubborn affliction, not to mention the signs of irritation that often accompany it. These lightweight oils work to keep your driest areas hydrated & silky smooth, while also reducing irritation & flakiness. Great for those with dry areas around their hands, feet, elbows & knees.

Enjoy soft, moisturised skin all that day long, while enjoying Beetroot Squalane’s almost weightless texture. The addition of Gromwell Extract also helps to improve redness, flaking, & other signs of irritation.

Rosehip Pure Oil
A dry skin holy grail! This deeply moisturising plant oil is rich in antioxidants like Vitamin A & C, which help protect against environmental stressors & help increase the turnover of dry, dead skin cells. It also contains natural anti inflammatory properties to keep inflammation at bay. It's slightly richer than our Gentle Oil, but absorbs quickly into the skin.

Dosage Recommendations:

Since the area you want to treat might range from big or small, it can be hard to give an exact dosage, but there’s a few good rules of thumb!

- First things, first, do your prep! Always apply oils onto damp skin and allow the oil a few minutes to absorb into your skin before continuing on with your routine.

- If the affected area is small, use about 3-5 drops of oil, and then massage it in gently until you get an even coating. For larger areas, start with about half a dropper’s worth of oil instead. For the most effective results, use oils twice a day.

- Apply more if necessary, but start small, as our oils are of high quality and a little can go a long way!

- Consider combining our oils too, so you can tackle multiple skincare concerns at once! Use about a 50/50 ratio when mixing.
