This is an incredibly rich, thick, luscious formula that leaves skin feeling so soft, dewy, silky, smooth, fresh, renewed, moisturized, and protected. Specially formulated for the colder months ahead, to deeply nourish, moisturize, revitalize, and renew, and protect from harsh and cold weather. Best for dry, mature, and normal skin types (suitable for sensitive and reactive skin).

This base of regenerative and restorative oils are known to moisturize, smooth, balance, protect, soften, nourish, calm, assist with mature skin, fine lines and wrinkles, and with various skin conditions and irritations.

CO2LLAGENEER® is a collagen boosting active, extracted from Sweet White Lupine seeds (lupeol). This high-performance active ingredient stimulates the generation of high-quality collagen, increases elasticity, firmness, and reduces sagging skin. In clinical studies and testing, after 6 weeks, the skin's firmness was improved by 92%, sagging of the facial contour was reduced by 72%, and after 89 days, skin elasticity was enhanced by 10%.

Scented with a lovely, grounding, calming medley of Sandalwood, Frankincense, Bulgarian Rose, Myrrh, Lavender, Cedarwood, Rose Geranium, and Helichrysum. This combination of pure essential oils has a soft, delicate, woodsy, and resinous aroma, with lightly floral undertones (Frankincense and Sandalwood are the main aroma notes). They contain properties known to assist with mature skin, balance and calm the skin, signs of aging, and bring a fresh, radiant, and youthful glow. Note that we're using authentic essential oils in this formula (splurging on expensive ones like Rose and Sandalwood), not fragrance oils!

Jojoba Oil (certified organic): This liquid plant wax is similar to the sebum that our own skin produces, making it balancing and beneficial for all skin types. Regenerative, moisturizing, balancing, and forms a light protective barrier over skin which allows skin to breath while sealing in moisture. Contains vitamins A, E, D, antioxidants, and fatty acids.

Avocado Oil (certified organic): Nourishing, protective, known to help regenerate skin cells, repair skin tissues, and assist with signs of aging. Very beneficial for sensitive and damaged skin.

Extra Virgin Olive Fruit Oil (certified organic): Amazing for the skin, this oil is very high in oleic fatty acid, supports natural sebum production, attracts moisture to the skin, helps repair and heal damaged tissues, is moisturizing, soothing, protective, emollient, naturally contains plant-based squalene which supports the delivery of oxygen to skin cells, prevents evaporation of moisture, and helps prevent dry skin and premature aging.

Argan Oil (certified organic): Referred to as "liquid gold", this is one of the very best ingredients to use in skin care! This remarkable oil protects, nourishes, hydrates, moisturizes, boosts skin elasticity, and revitalizes skin.

CO2LLAGENEER®: a collagen boosting active, extracted from the sweet white lupine seeds (lupeol) solubilised in organic oleic sunflower oil. The lupin is sustainably grown in France, the extract is made in France, and this ingredient is over 95% organic, making this a wonderful natural ingredient for skin health. This high-performance active ingredient stimulates the generation of high-quality collagen, provides elasticity and firmness to the skin, and reduces sagging skin. In clinical studies and testing, after 6 weeks, the skin's firmness was improved by 92%, sagging of the facial contour was reduced by 72%, and after 89 days, skin elasticity was enhanced by 10%. These tests were conducted with a 2% concentration of CO2LLAGENEER®, the same concentration that we are using in our formula and the maximum amount recommended by the manufacturer (recommended usage is 0.5-2%).

Squalane Oil (sustainably derived from olives without the use of solvents). Squalene is naturally present and plentiful in our skin until our 20's, then begins to diminish as we age. However, plant-based squalane is nearly identical and clinical studies have shown that it visibly reduces wrinkles, softens and smooths skin, improves skin elasticity, balances oil production, protects, deeply hydrates, and moisturizes for more youthful, radiant, and healthy skin. It's a thick and rich oil, yet since it's so similar to the squalene that our skin naturally produces, it soaks in easily, balances oil production, and doesn't clog pores.

Sea Buckthorn Oil (cold pressed and unrefined): This is a very powerful and nourishing oil used to treat and heal a wide variety of skin conditions and irritations, regenerate skin cells, improve skin tone, and decrease fine lines and wrinkles. Rich in vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, phytosterols, and nutrients including omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, vitamins E, C, B1, B2, and K. A very concentrated and reparative treatment.

It is a luxurious oil with a beautiful, rich, grounding aroma with notes of wood, earth, and leather. For skincare, sandalwood is especially beneficial for mature, aging, and dry skin.

The scent "opens" the heart, helps remove conflict, heartache, sadness, anger, depression, fear, envy, and lack of confidence.Side note: did you know that it takes 60 roses (5 dozen roses!) to make a single drop of rose essential oil? That's why it's so costly to purchase true rose oil, and why most rose-scented products contain synthetic fragrances.

Lavender Essential Oil (Lavendula angustofolia): This beloved oil encourages skin cell repair and assists with damaged skin and various skin conditions. The scent calms, uplifts, balances emotions, and helps alleviate feelings of anxiety and anger.

Myrrh Resin Essential Oil: Myrrh resin is one of the oldest medicinals with historical use going back 5,000 years! Native to Egypt (and used by ancient pharaohs), it was traded along ancient spice routes where it was worth as much as gold. Known as the "preserver of youth", it is wonderful for mature, environmentally damaged, dry, irritated, and inflamed skin.
