Science behind:
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, and vitamin E moisturizes the skin and smoothens lines.
Argan oil - is great for mature, aging, or damaged skin. Healing, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory. These properties help reduce symptoms for several inflammatory skin conditions like psoriasis and rosacea. Topical application has been shown to increase the skin's elasticity, providing an effective anti-aging treatment. Prevent wrinkles around the eyes.
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).
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.
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 serves as a beneficial emollient for dry, irritated skin.
Borage oil – an anti-inflammatory, moisturizing emollient, is the richest source of gamma-linoleic acid (GLA) contents, which is beneficial for premature aging, dry and devitalized skin, psoriasis, sensitive skin, and eczema.
Avocado oil - is a highly nourishing and antioxidant oil that has been shown to increase collagen synthesis and reduce inflammation during wound healing. The dermal application reduces itchiness in the skin. Avocado is moisturizing and emollient, and it penetrates the skin quickly. It has anti-bacterial, antiwrinkle, revitalizing, and cell-regenerating properties. Suitable for all skin types, especially for dry, dehydrated, fragile, mature skin
Squalene - squalene makes up approximately 13% of human sebum, decreasing 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.
Jojoba oil - is a liquid wax that dissolves and removes substances clogging 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.
Geranium oil is anti-bacterial and astringent (tightens pores). It helps to reduce skin inflammation and irritation. Has a beautiful floral aroma.
How to use:
Apply a small amount onto damp skin and massage against massage lines on the whole face and around the eyes.
Use it at the end of your skincare routine (after applying serums and oils).
Pair it with Neroli C Salicin Niacinamide to get the benefits of water-soluble cosmeceuticals!
If you use our Hyaluron 3D Hydrator and/or Tight and Bright serums, they should be applied before the Saviour.
