All oils are non-comedogenic, so they will not clog pores.
The Science behind:
Chia seed oil - superfood oil imparts a silky, soft feeling to the skin. It has a very high content of omega 3, which is very soothing, smooths fine wrinkles, and improves skin elasticity. This powerful seed oil is loaded with unusually high levels of phytonutrients and antioxidants, which makes it a perfect oil for skin with a damaged lipid barrier.
Blueberry seed oil - “dry” and thin oil, one of nature’s most potent antioxidant “superfood” oils, gives elasticity to the skin. Has a high amount of omega-3. Rejuvenating and skin barrier protecting oil for sensitive skin with large pores.
Black cumin seed oil is a soothing, emollient, and nourishing oil for the skin. It contains a unique chemical, thymoquinone, a potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, making it especially suited for products to address eczema, psoriasis, acne, injured skin, dry skin, aging, skin, and in after-sun care products—Anti-microbial, which is beneficial for acne-prone skin as well.
Carrot seed oil - contains Vitamin E in large quantities. It is rich in antioxidants, which help it fight free radicals and eliminate signs of aging. Vitamin A slows skin aging, vitamin C boosts collagen production, and vitamin E moisturizes the skin and smoothens lines.
Blue tansy – strongly anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory oil, powered by its high chamazulene (blue color) and camphor content, offers relief for UV damaged, aging skin, reducing redness and swelling and the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
Elderberry OS is a standardized extract rich in phytonutrients with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that protect the skin from free radicals that contribute to cell damage, aging, and wrinkle formation. The bioflavonoids in elderberries exhibit astringent properties that help tighten the skin and provide additional anti-wrinkle benefits.
Squalene — makes up approximately 13% of human sebum, which decreases with age. Truly one of nature’s excellent emollients, squalene is quickly and efficiently absorbed deep into the skin, restoring healthy suppleness and flexibility without leaving an oily residue.
Sacha inchi – an enhancer carrier oil, has one of the highest proportions of EFAs (essential fatty acids), approximately 80%, making it an excellent choice for inflamed or UV-exposed skin. Promotes an even skin tone while calming itch and irritation, a preferred ingredient in anti-aging products. It contains high tocopherol, phenol, and carotenoid contents, providing the oil with considerable antioxidant capacity. Particularly effective for dry, mature skin types
Pomegranate seed oil – is unique due to its rich content of punicic acid, an omega-5 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid. It supports cellular regeneration (specifically in the epidermis) and combats free radicals (antioxidant activity). It improves skin elasticity, revitalizes premature aging or sun-damaged skin, and is a beneficial emollient for dry, irritated skin.
Jojoba oil – is a liquid wax that dissolves and removes substances that clog pores. On a molecular level, jojoba oil is very similar to human sebum; its waxy nature creates a soothing seal on the surface and protects the skin from environmental stressors.
Vitamin E is a nutrient that humans cannot synthesize and must acquire from plants. In conjunction with b-carotene (vitamin A), Vitamin E decreases the harmful effects of the sun and photoaging. D-alpha tocopherol provides a highly protective antioxidant activity in the skin, protects the skin barrier against environmental pollutants, and has excess repairing and regenerating properties.
Rosehip seed oil – dry, readily absorbed oil high in EFA (essential fatty acids), which contributes to the oil’s anti-inflammatory and cellular regenerative activity and its ability to prevent TEWL (trans-epidermal water loss). Rosehip seed oils have shown an exceptional ability to reduce hyperpigmentation and the appearance of scars and prevent photoaging. Since rosehip oil was established to address inflamed skin conditions, it is an appropriate ingredient for treating eczema and cheilitis (inflammation of the lips or dry, chapped lips).
Perilla oil – A fine, ‘dry’ oil, which is easily absorbed into the skin, demonstrates anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and antioxidant activities due to being rich in polyphenols (particularly rosmarinic acid), triterpenoids (particularly ursolic acid) and abundance of linoleic acid. It contains ceramide precursors, which contribute to maintaining the skin barrier to protect against water loss. Excellent for treating aging skin.
