We are super happy to bring you something totally unique. Our new PLANT-BASED, OCEAN FRIENDLY facial oil has been formulated with the sun in mind. You’ll love the silky feel & the hint of gold on your skin and the fast absorbency leaves you with the essence of chamomile, green tea, calendula & cumin. Without all the chemicals that can adversely effect your health, we have researched and added the most photoprotective marine and plant botanicals. They work synergistically to defend against UV rays, repair sun damage and slow the DNA damage that causes aging skin. These oils and extracts boast the highest levels of sun protective beta carotenoids, polyphenols and vitamins. Made-in-house extracts of our own Ginko Biloba, local Seaweed & our own Savary Calendula all contain properties to prevent UV damage as well as soothe skin following any exposure.

FORMULATED FOR:

This formula is great for all skin types who want to improve daily UV protection and repair any existing sun damage. This formula will help slow aging and offers superb moisturizing capabilities. Also helpful for Rosacea.

KEY INGREDIENTS:

BURITI OIL -Richest natural source of beta-carotene – known as an excellent natural antioxidant. It is this high natural beta-carotene concentration that protects the skin against photo-damage and, also helps to protect the membranes surrounding skin cells, which keeps the skin cells healthy for longer.

ORGANIC RICE BRAN OIL -contains vitamin E which absorbs UV rays and reduces UV-induced free radical damage to your skin. It also repairs any damage.

ORGANIC GREEN TEA OIL-The green tea polyphenol- epigallocatechin gallate can protect human cellular DNA from ultraviolet and visible radiation-induced damage. Rich in polyphenols that protect our skin from UV damage. It’s also incredibly helpful if you drink it!

GINKO BILOBA EXTRACT-Studies have found this to be an excellent choice for photoprotection when combined with seaweed extract. So we added both.

ASTAXANTHIN-is produced by marine algae to protect themselves when stressed. It is responsible for the “bright orange” colour in salmon, shrimp & even flamingos! Our research shows it can have incredible photoprotective & nourishing properties for skin. It is 6000 x more powerful than Vitamin C! 500 x greater than Vit E & Green Tea.

ORGANIC GRAPESEED-Research shows that when grape seed extract is applied to skin prior to UV light exposure, the compounds may have a sunscreen effect, helping to reduce redness and damage to cells.

RED RASPBERRY SEED oil- Well known for its excellent UVA coverage. According to a 2000 study, raspberry seed oil offers UVA + UVB protection similar to titanium dioxide with a 28-50 SPF protection factor against UVB rays and 8 SPF against UVA rays. Mixed with other oils & extracts boosts both UVA & UVB

DIRECTIONS: Apply a few drops to finger tips and lightly massage into face & neck following cleansing in the AM. Re-apply following swimming. For extra protection add a few drops to your mineral sunscreen as an SPF BOOSTER to enhance the feel, colour and effectiveness.

CAUTIONS: This oil has not been tested for its SPF coverage so we cannot call it “a sunscreen” until this has been done. Re-apply after swimming. Mix a few drops as an SPF booster with your mineral sunscreen.
