Are you struggling with sensitive maturing skin? Are you noticing an increased appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, hyper-pigmented areas, redness and/or irritation on your face and neck?
I formulated this rich facial cream to help combat and slow the visible signs of aging. Filled with organic oils, butters and actives, each specifically chosen for the benefits they bring to the finished product, this facial cream is fast absorbing and highly moisturizing. The cream contains no artificial fragrance. In the winter (when my skin is most dry) I use this cream twice daily. In the summer months this could be used once daily in the evening if you find it too rich! Our skin is naturally more moisturized in the humid summer months so feel free to adjust your use accordingly.
Key Ingredients in our Facial Cream
Organic Mango Butter: is used to soften and moisturize rough, dry skin. Its natural antioxidants and emollients are useful for reducing the appearance of fine lines making it an ideal choice for dry, damaged and aging skin.
Cupuacu Butter-Unrefined: is moisturizing without being greasy. It is quickly absorbed by skin leaving a smooth silky finish. Cupuacu butter contains phytosterols, which are shown to help slow down the deterioration of the skin. Recent research studies have shown that phytosterols help to promote elasticity and suppleness of your skin.
Organic Pumpkin Seed Oil: this oil contains high amounts of zinc, selenium and vitamin E that help with skin renewal and improved skin tone. With minimal clogging of pores, the oil readily absorbs into the skin, leaving it hydrated and renewed. The vitamin C in the oil helps the production of collagen that retains skin elasticity while also plumping and building firmness of the skin. Suitable for most skin types, the unsaturated fatty acids (such as, palmitic, oleic, and linoleic acids) found in the oil contain antioxidant properties that help to correct skin inflammation and promote healing. The soothing and smoothening effects of the oil even out age-related blemishes and wrinkles. The antioxidants of the vitamin A present in the oil protects the skin from sun damage. The vitamin B2 in the oil is great for dryness and acne, also bringing about an improved skin tone and radiance of the skin.
Organic Unrefined Evening Primrose Oil: promotes a healthy, clear, rejuvenated complexion with enhanced radiance and addresses roughness, wrinkles, redness, dryness, and irritation. Evening Primrose Oil exhibits soothing and moisturizing properties and it is gentle enough for use on sensitive and prematurely aging skin.
Organic White Tea Extract: since there is minimal processing of the tender uppermost buds and new leaves of the plant the integrity of the phytochemicals in the white tea leaves is preserved in this extract. It is these phytochemicals that provide potent antioxidant activity to counteract extrinsic (sun, weather, pollution) damage to the skin.
Organic Rosehip Oil: high in essential fatty acids rosehip oil is known to help soothe dry, irritated, weathered skin. It is reputed to replenish the skin’s moisture barrier and relieve itching due to dry skin. It is suitable to use as a moisturizer and may assist in reducing the visible signs of aging.
Organic Frankincense Essential Oil: an effective oil for slowing down the look of aging skin anywhere on the body, as it can smooth and tighten the look of wrinkles and reduce the appearance of blemishes such as sunspots.
