The power of flowers in a facial serum specially formulated for oily and acne prone skin! Say hello to skin that is clear, bright and healthy!
Why you're going to love it:
This powerful blend of organic oils, extracts and essential oils keeps oily and acne prone skin balanced while still offering beautiful hydration. The oils used in this special blend target acne prone skin by helping to clear blemishes, reduce the appearance of scarring and help prevent future break outs.
What's in it:
~Organic helichrysum infused sunflower oil contains powerful antioxidants which can free radical molecular damage. It also provides your skin cells with the vitamins needed to properly regenerate. Helichrysum essential oil has been proven to prevent the clogging of pores, excess oiliness and comedones. Its cellular regenerative property has also been observed to prevent and reduce acne scars.
~Lavender and tea tree essential oils have powerful and effective antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. They work to kill bacteria which can help greatly reduce acne breakouts. They also help unclogs pores, calm inflamed skin conditions and help to reduce the appearance of scarring. One study showed that tea tree oils works just as well as benzoyl peroxide with fewer side effects--thought it does tend to work slower, but we think the wait is well worth the benefits!
~Calendula C02 is a powerhouse in all natural skincare! It helps banish dark spots, redness, blemishes, and acne scars, restoring skin elasticity and soft texture. This beautiful flower helps relieve skin irritation and discomfort, and efficiently promotes cell turnover by eliminating debris, impurities, and dead skin layers. We love calendula so much that it is present in most of our products at the Mulberry Patch including our herbal teas, elderberry syrups and elixirs, and most skincare products. Yes, it's THAT good!
~Organic grapefruit essential oil brightens skin, and research has actually found that citrus essential oils improve breakouts due to their anti-inflammatory response and anti-bacterial benefits. Grapefruit essential oil's antioxidant and bacteria-fighting properties heal existing acne and protect against future breakouts.
~Organic grape seed, jojoba, sunflower and argan oils are noncomedogenic, meaning they won't clog pores and actually work to keep pores clear of debris. They also work to deeply moisturize while balancing oil production to help prevent breakouts. Jojoba oil, which acts very much like our skins own sebum, has been proven effective in treating acne and skin lesions, and may also play a role in wound healing. One study tested the effects of jojoba oil in people with mild acne. After 6 weeks of treatment, they reported a 54 percent decrease in acne lesions, including papules, cysts, and comedones. Another study on the effect of jojoba oil on skin cells found that it may be effective at treating wounds, which may help diminish the appearance of scars left by acne.
~Non GMO vitamin e t-50 and organic rosemary seed extract work as natural preservatives to keep our oil-based products fresher for longer. They also double as an extra antioxidant boost and help protect skin against harmful free radicals that can damage skin cells' DNA, leading to conditions such as fine lines and skin laxity.
To use: After cleansing skin with a glycerin or oil based cleanser (we highly reccomend our Tallow & Charcoal face bar and Jojoba & Pumkin Seed oil cleanser), apply a few drops Flower Power Facial Serum to damp skin and massage in until fully absorbed. Use a.m. and p.m.
