How the face oil can help rosacea

The combination of seven anti-inflammatory oils (Argan, Jojoba, Raspberry, Pumpkin, Lavender, Frankincense and Geranium) work in synergy to give a powerful anti-inflammatory effect, soothing inflammation.

In rosacea skincare, it's essential to use gentle, natural moisturisers that support and strengthen the skin barrier. A healthy skin barrier acts as a shield against environmental triggers that cause inflammation and irritation in rosacea. It also helps retain moisture, crucial for compromised skin.

How to manage rosacea flare-ups naturally

Cleansing Balm

Firmly massage a small amount of balm onto your face and neck, concentrating on problem areas like dry patches and areas of congestion. The balm will turn into oil on contact with your skin and will dissolve make-up, dirt and oil, drawing it away from your skin. Use a damp warm face cloth or muslin cloth to gently wipe away any residue left from the cleanser. It's best to wipe your skin twice to make sure all the balm has been removed.

Do not apply start using a new product while your rosacea is flaring.

Soothing Face Mask

Our Soothing face mask is packaged in powder form to maintain a good shelf life without the need for preservatives. The ingredients are activated when mixed with a small amount of water, which means when you mix up the mask it is fresh and active.

Tip all the contents of the pouch into a small bowl. Add approximately two teaspoons of water to create a smooth paste (add the water slowly to avoid adding too much - start with one teaspoon of water and then and then add a little more bit by bit until the right consistency is acquired). Apply to clean skin, avoiding the eye area. Gently remove after 10-15 minutes with a wash cloth and warm water. Do not leave the mask on for longer than 15 minutes as this could cause irritation. You don't want to let it go too hard as it will be difficult to remove. The mask will feel cool on the skin - this is normal and is the soothing action of the aloe vera.

Do not apply to broken skin. Do not apply start using a new product while your rosacea is flaring.

Face Oil

After cleansing, suck up one full mini pipette of oil and drop into the palm of your hands. Gently pat (or smooth in an upwards motion) onto your face and neck.

If using as a night oil, no night moisturiser is required. Our oil is nourishing and moisturising enough to use on its own.

If you have dry or mature skin you might like to also include our face oil as the last step of your morning skincare ritual ie after you apply your day cream or serum. For winter skin-care add a drop to your moisturiser for an extra moisture boost. Simply mix them together it in the palm of your hand before application.

Maximise the therapeutic qualities of the essential oils by inhaling the aroma from your cupped hand once you have applied the oil to your face. Inhaling the essential oils in this way can bring about feelings of relaxation.

Avoid applying our face oil around the eyes. Do not apply start using a new product while your rosacea is flaring.
