This wonderful face oil is completely made
(100%) with ingredients GROWN IN NZ. A truely, local and sustainable face oil!
I love using oils on my face and I do love oils such as rosehip and jojoba but
they are all imported from far away - lots of air miles!
So, I was very excited to be able to source some
oils grown in NZ and be able to create a really great face oil. I have been
using this oil for a few weeks now and I am really happy with how it works for
my mature, sun damaged skin.
Made with the following oils GROWN IN NZ:
Hemp seed oil – Hemp seed
is anti-inflammatory, anti-ageing, balances dry skin, fights skin
inflammations, helps heal skin lesions, has antioxidants, and contains moisture
balancing properties. The oil is non-greasy, readily absorbs into the pores, is
an emollient, and has rejuvenating and moisturising properties for the skin.
Avocado seed oil - Avocado
oil is ultra rich and contains high amounts of vitamin A, B1, B2, D and E, as
well as amino acids, pantothenic acid, lecithin and other essential fatty
acids. It is a wonderful emollient and promotes cellular regeneration. It can be
used for all skin types especially post-menopausal skin, dry, dehydrated,
fragile or mature skin.
Grape Seed Oil - Grape
seed oil is a polyunsaturated oil rich in linoleic acid and penetrates quickly,
leaving no oily residue.
Olive Oil – Olive oil
is great for wound healing, dry sking, eczema and aging skin.
Borage seed oil - Borage
oil has also been used to treat people with atopic dermatitis (eczema), skin
inflammation, dryness, scaliness, and itch. It is also used for wound healing
and is particularly useful for mature skin.
Kiwi Seed Oil - Kiwi
seed oil contains around 60% alpha linolenic acid (ALA) as well as being a rich
source of Vitamin C and Vitamin E. The high concentrations of alpha linolenic
acid (Omega-3) make it the perfect ingredient for natural skin care products,
by helping to maintain moisture in the skin and hair, thus preventing drying
and scaling of the hair and skin.
It is good for treating sensitive skin, oily skin, acne, psoriasis and eczema.
Black currant seed oil - Blackcurrant
seed oil is useful in skincare products as an anti-inflammatory oil to ease
muscular and joint aches and pains. It is very nourishing and revitalising for
dry and damaged skin and excellent for ailments such as eczema and psoriasis.
Also wonderful on sensitive skin and as an anti-ageing oil. It absorbs quickly
and leaves the skin looking and feeling hydrated.
