Massage a pea-sized amount in circular motions in the palm of your hand to warm up the product. Apply evenly to face and exposed neckline 30 minutes prior to sun exposure. Re-apply every 2 hours and after swimming or sweating. 

Spending time in the sun increases your risk of skin cancer and early skin ageing. To decrease these risks, regularly use sunscreen and practice other sun protection measures: wearing long-sleeved shirts, pants, hats, and sunglasses.

INGREDIENT HIGHLIGHTS

MACADAMIA NUT OIL certified organic is rich in essential fatty acids which not only protect and restore the skin, but also work to reduce itchiness and inflammation and maintain moisture. It is similar to the human sebum in its chemical profile, making it ideal for skin application. Macadamia nut oil contains a particularly high amount of palmitoleic acid, which plays a key role in delaying skin and premature aging. This, along with the many antioxidants in macadamia nut oil, work to reduce oxidative stress, prevent wrinkles, age spots, and improve healing rates

 JOJOBA OIL certified organic closely resembles sebum, a waxy substance produced by our skin glands, and therefore is an effective natural skin conditioner. Jojoba oil moisturises skin by creating a barrier to external elements and promotes the natural oil balance of your skin. Jojoba oil also has antibacterial properties and contains vitamins A and E, which contribute to anti-inflammatory and soothing qualities of the oil. B-complex vitamins, along with vitamin E, help jojoba oil to repair damaged skin after sun exposure by regenerating skin cells.

COCOA BUTTER certified organic contains antioxidant compounds including oleic acid, palitic acid and stearic acid, which provide anti-aging benefits for the skin by neutralising free radicals, reducing the occurrence of oxidative stress and smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines, as well as scars. The unique blend of fatty acids and antioxidants in cocoa butter work to reduces inflammation of the skin. Cocoa butter also provides a protective barrier for the skin that will protect it from outside agents, as well as from drying out.

COCONUT OIL certified organic contains high amounts of saturated fats and proteins, which smooth, moisturise and rejuvenate the skin, reducing moisture loss while also contributing to cellular health and tissue repair.  A series of fatty acids present in coconut oil have strong disinfectant and antimicrobial properties, protecting skin from microbial infections. Finally, coconut oil contains vitamin E, which is essential for healthy skin growth and repair, working to replenish cracked skin to smooth and soft skin. Vitamin E also prevents premature ageing and wrinkling of the skin due to its antioxidant properties. 

RASPBERRY SEED OIL offers moisturising, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits for the skin, along with improving skin elasticity, suppleness and flexibility while softening and smoothing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. The high content of vitamin A and E in red raspberry seed oil contributes to this myriad of benefits since they are potent antioxidants that reduces skin damage and stimulate cell repair. Red raspberry seed oil also has natural sun protection qualities against both UVA and UVB radiation. Quantities of essential fatty acids are also high in red raspberry seed oil, which work as moisturisers and anti-inflammatory agents, among other things.

YLANG YLANG ESSENTIAL OIL, Drives away stress, anxiety and depression resulting in an uplifted mood. For the skin, ylang ylang reduces redness and acts as an antiseptic, as well as providing moisturising benefits and maintaining oil balance of the skin.
