Apoterra Rose Nourishing Facial Oil
Our best selling facial oil! This antioxidant-rich oil sinks in quickly to protect from external aggressors, while locking in moisture and repairing signs of aging.
Its effectiveness is powered by nourishing rose absolute, powerful antioxidant coQ10, and a blend of brightening & protective oils that work to fight off free radicals, improve skin hydration, and reveal healthier, calmer, firmer skin. Did we mention that it has a subtle true rose aroma to help you feel calm and relaxed? Ideal as a day oil to protect from environmental stressors, and for dry, sensitive and aging skin concerns.
Chia Seed Oil // This oil is rich in the essential fatty acid Alpha-linolenic, more commonly known as omega-3, and linoleic acid, omega-6. In studies, both have been shown to help restore the skin barrier improving skin's moisture, especially for those who experience dry skin states.
Passion Fruit Seed Oil // This oil has a high content of linoleic acid (omega-6), helping to round out this facial oil's essential fatty acid profile. Passion fruit seed oil is also high in piceatannol which has been shown to help reduce photo-aging. Our passion fruit oil seed oil is upcycled and sourced from a supplier who is commited to sustainable employment, fair-trade operations and promoting Amazonian conservation.
Rosehip oil // There isn’t much that this rich oil can’t do. It’s extremely high in essential fatty acids Omega 3, 6 and 9, which provide regenerative properties for compromised skin. Our rosehip oil is cold pressed, unrefined and certified organic.
coQ10 (Ubiquinone)// A naturally occurring antioxidant present in human cells. When applied topically it works as a barrier to keep free radicals at bay and enhances the skin's ability to regenerate itself.
Rose absolute // It takes 100 roses to create 1 drop of this magical oil. When applied topically, it helps improve skin health, increase skin hydration and also prevent breakouts thanks to its antibacterial properties. Studies have also shown that rose absolute can help reduce stress (specifically cortisol levels) when the aroma is inhaled. Our rose absolute is produced from organically grown damascus roses in Bulgaria, and is GC/MS tested.
Pomegranate oil // Useful for cell regeneration and improving the skin's ability to retain moisture. Pomegranate oil is high in flavonoids, antioxidants (including ellagic acid) which help prevent UV damage. It also contains the rare fatty acid omega-5 (punicic acid) which is known to soothe the skin and prevent moisture loss. Our pomegranate oil is cold pressed and unrefined.
Jojoba Oil Floral Infusion // Jojoba oil is naturally high in Vitamin E and has the chemical makeup that is close to our skin's own sebum, making it a quick absorbing oil. We sun-infuse golden organic jojoba oil with skin healing and organically grown chamomile and calendula to create a deeply nourishing elixir that soothes and restores dry skin.
