This nightly face oil is perfect for mature and very dry skin and will not clog pores. A rejuvenating combination of carrot, jojoba and rosehip oils and also vitamins E and A. Can be used as a weekly treatment for normal skin to help prevent premature ageing of the skin.
Why it works
Carrot oil is useful for the treatment of dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, wrinkles, and it also helps balance dry skin and can revitalise the basal layer of the skin. Carrot oil is known to help reduce age spots and soothe damage caused by over exposure to the sun. It stimulates the red blood cells, adding tone and elasticity to the skin and can reduce or prevent wrinkles. Carrot oil also assists in removing toxins and water build up in the skin, giving it a fresher firmer appearance. Carotenoids, found in carrot oil, effectively prevent and control the production of free radicals. Besides preventing the generation of free radicals, these compounds also reduce free radical reactions and restrict oxidative/free radicals-induced damage.
Jojoba oil is an excellent moisturiser for the skin with exceptional spread. It's lubricating properties leave a light, non-oily feel on the skin, while retarding water loss and enhancing flexibility and suppleness. Jojoba is not actually an oil, it is a liquid wax. It is molecularly very similar to sebum (the substance your own skin secretes). It's small molecular size allows it to penetrate deeply without clogging pores.
Rosehip oil is well known for reducing wrinkles and the signs of premature ageing. It also helps counter the drying effects of the sun which are usually first noticed by the way of fine wrinkles or "crows feet" around the eyes and mouth. Rose Hip Oil is very effective in halting and even reversing these effects on the skin.
Vitamin A (retinol) plays an important role in anti-aging of the skin. The purest and most active form of Vitamin A, Retinol aids in the resurfacing and rejuvenating of skin, helping to impart a clearer, more vibrant complexion for all ages and skin types.
Vitamin E helps reduce the appearance of stretch marks and the appearance of age spots. It helps maintain the skin’s natural oil balance and reduces transepidermal water loss from the skin and also strengthens the skin’s barrier function. It helps skin look younger by reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
What to expect
Significant changes in your skin should be noticed after the third week of continuous application. In extreme cases of photo-aging, a more generous application should be used at night and during the day. It may take four months or more for the total disappearance of superficial wrinkles and significant dissipation of hyper-pigmented spots.
How to use it
Apply only a few drops of Night Repair Oil to the skin before going to bed. It can also be applied again in the morning for added benefits to the skin. Remember to only use a small amount so not to clog the skin from the outside. Pat the skin after fifteen minutes with a towel to remove excess oil if required. Can be used under makeup and sunscreen. |
