About the ingredients used:

Jojoba oil

Jojoba oil has a proven anti-inflammatory effect. Studies have found it to also have an antioxidant effect, assist in wound healing and protect against skin aging. Jojoba seed oil is actually a wax and it closely mimics our skin’s sebum which aids in absorption, and skin barrier protection and repair. Jojoba oil is non-comedogenic and non allergenic. It also glides on the skin so nicely, so is wonderful for facial massage.

Calendula

Calendula is a beautiful plant! It is the first plant that I infused into oil and I love it. The chemical constituents in Calendula possess wound-healing action, management of skin hyper-pigmentation, anti-inflammatory action, and skin-protective action. Calendula has been proven to have antioxidant, anti-cancer, anti-fungal and skin protective activities. It has shown to both inhibit collagen degradation and support collagen production. It’s considered a gentle skin care plant and is helpful for sensitive skin.

Rose

Rose petals have been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities for the skin. Rose can be used cosmetically to fight stress-induced skin fatigue and to boost the skin’s natural defenses against daily stressors. A study supports the idea that the olfactory system is involved in facilitating anti-stress responses in the skin. So, when you smell that gorgeous rose scent, the feeling of relaxation it provides may be also helping your skin!

Lavender

Lavender flowers have anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, and antibacterial properties. Studies have shown that lavender reduces anxiety and emotional stress, aids in skin healing, restores skin complexion, and reduces acne. And so again, the scent of lavender may be improving the health of your skin!

Beeswax

Scientific literature shows that beeswax can help maintain skin hydration by supporting the skin barrier. It has lubricating, and softening activities. Beeswax contains beta carotene that converts into Vitamin A, which delays collagen degeneration and stimulates skin regeneration. It also smells wonderful. Thank your bees who provide this amazing wax! They need our support.

Shea Butter

So rich and supportive! Studies have shown shea butter to contribute to skin barrier strength and protection. A study indicates that shea butter contains properties that hold collagen-enhancing and regenerating properties. Shea Butter also has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.
