Read below for further benefits of the ingredients in this body oil:
Squalane: This GMO-free, ecologically green, and sustainably produced emollient is sourced from plant sugars and yeast fermentation. (Originally, squalane was produced by harvesting shark livers or extracting from olive oil.) It occurs naturally in the skin’s lipid layers, and helps prevent water loss from the skin while helping restore suppleness and flexibility.
Broccoli Seed Oil: This oil contains arachidonic acid, a fatty acid that can help reduce inflammation in the skin. It also has high levels of vitamin K and A, which helps with skin regeneration.
Marula Oil: This oil is lightweight, absorbs easily, and may be beneficial for smoothing fine lines and stretch marks. It helps keep skin hydrated, has anti-inflammatory effects, and offers antioxidant benefits.
Rosehip Oil: Rosehip oil is a powerhouse skincare oil. It can help moisturize, hydrate, exfoliate, brighten skin, boost collagen formation, reduce inflammation, protect against sun damage, reduce hyperpigmentation, and reduce scars and fine lines. It is high in vitamin A and antioxidants, so it can also potentially help boost immunity by maintaining a healthy skin barrier.
Jojoba Oil: Jojoba oil is actual a liquid wax, and most closely mimics the natural sebum of our skin. It is rich in vitamin E and is ideal for any skin type. It helps balance out skin and is non-comodogenic, so it does not clog the pores.
Tamanu Oil: Tamanu oil is a powerhouse oil. There is evidence that it has anti-inflammatory properties against bacteria that causes acne. It has also been shown to reduce scar appearance in a hospital setting. (https://www.healthline.com/health/tamanu-oil#purported-benefits) Tamanu oil has also been shown to have wound-healing and regenerative properties, as well as being rich in antioxidants.
Sea Buckthorn Seed Oil: This oil is full of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, along with carotenoids, and can help combat wrinkles due to its free radical prevention and tissue regeneration properties. It can also soothe dry, irritated skin and has been shown in studies to reduce skin maturation and aging (PMID: 38370085) Sea buckthorn seed oil also can help prevent damage from the sun.
Bakuchiol: Our bakuchiol is extracted with supercritical Co2 for a solvent-free high purity product! Bakuchiol is derived from Psoralea Corylifolia Linn., a plant that has been used in Ayurvedic and other traditional medicines for a wide range of uses. Bakuchiol is a phytoestrogen with similar antioxidant effects as retinol without any of the skin-irritating effects. Unlike retinol, which can be harsh and should only be used at night, bakuchiol can be used in the morning and evening. It is a vegan alternative for retinol, which is often derived from animal sources or is synthetic.
Astaxanthin: This is a dark red to purple, oil-soluble antioxidant and is the primary carotenoid (natural pigment) found in the marine world of algae and aquatic animals. They are responsible for the orange and red colors in plants and algae and the wide range of blue, purple, and reddish colors in aquatic animals. Astaxanthin, often referred to as "the king of antioxidants," is produced from the microalgae Haematococcus Pluvialis, the richest known natural source of this antioxidant. This distinct carotenoid can effectively protect against oxidative and environmental stress while softening and restoring skin texture. It is:
- 550 times stronger than vitamin E
- 800 times more powerful than CoQ10
- 6000 times more potent than vitamin C
- 500 times more powerful than catechins (type of antioxidants) found in green tea
Vitamin E: This facial serum also contains vitamin E, which is high in antioxidants and promotes blood circulation, which can delay wrinkles and is nourishing to the skin.
Copaiba Essential Oil: This oil has anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, and antimicrobial properties. It also can help revive mature skin and aid in wound healing.
Neroli Essential Oil: Neroli is great for hydration, and helping soften and lock in moisture in the skin. It also helps maintain a protective skin barrier.
Helichrysum Essential Oil: This amazing oil is great for anti-aging, wound healing, and scar-fading. It’s a powerhouse for skin repair, increasing collagen production, and reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
Roman Chamomile Essential Oil: This species of chamomile produces an oil that has powerful anti-inflammatory and calming properties to help even out complexion and calm any red/irritated skin conditions.
Lemon (Steam Distilled) Essential Oil: Lemon oil has been used for a variety of skin issues, including combatting acne, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, clarifying skin, and exfoliating dead skin cells. It’s been included in this serum for those benefits, as well as the uplifting, fruity scent it provides. This version of lemon oil is steam distilled to prevent any phototoxic effects.
Frankincense (Carterii) Essential Oil: This essential oil has been used in Chinese medicine for bruising, swelling, and helping heal from traumatic injuries. It has the ability to rejuvenate mature skin and helps with immune system support.
