THE RESULTS

SARAH STACEY AND JO FAIRLEY, JOINT EDITORS, BEAUTY BIBLE FEBRUARY 2020

“We love this totally natural, super ethical brand and use it ourselves so we’re delighted that our diligent testers ranked this light fragrant facial oil so highly in a very crowded, high scoring category. We’ve been facial oil devotees for many years and now they seem to have come of age (literally, as they’re brilliant for mature skin). Interestingly, several testers with combination skin said trialling this had changed their negative view of using a facial oil. One reported that it balanced her dry to very dry skin and oily T-zone, ‘leaving skin extremely smooth, very soft and looking incredibly dewy and generally healthy; after a month of using it am/pm, my skin has never looked healthier’. A luxury product, for sure, but you only need a couple of drops according to one cancer patient: “wonderful and hydrating on my very dry, six months postchemo skin, which now looks soft and rested and generally in better condition after three weeks use.”

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT IS A SUPER OIL?

Super oils are facial oils that contain more than one plant or botanical oil, an advanced blend of sophisticated oils to deliver multi benefits. Active Repair Super Oil is an innovative blend of 17 of the best skin loving oils that have an unsurpassed affinity with the skin. A super oil needs to contain everything the skin needs daily to function and be healthy, hydrated and youthful. The skin needs to strengthen and reinforce the skin's barrier every day as this is attacked hourly, omegas are indispensable in the role of underpinning the barrier. The skin can never have enough antioxidants, super oils should be overflowing with antioxidants in a bid to protect the cells and limit oxidisation. Stress, sensitivity, redness and irritation if ignored can cause a whole host of skin problems, using anti-inflammatory plant oils every day ensures the skin is in perfect equilibrium. Facial oils can be used either morning or evening and work well with your moisturiser. Facial oils are also like serums powerfully effective at delivering active ingredients into the skin in a precise measured way. Ensure you are using facials oils at least once a day to limit water evaporation from the skin. Super Oil is best applied at night-time due the ability to aid skin repair and renewal. With seventeen plant oils rich in omegas and vitamins Super Oil is perfect for dry, dehydrated, sensitive, oily, combination or aged skins.

WHAT CONDITIONS CAN SUPER OIL HELP?

Due to the advanced formula of super oils they can treat many skin conditions. Super Oil is expertly blended with 17 plant oils, every oil is picked for its aptitude to deliver results to ensure the skin has everything it needs to function, repair and defend itself. Oily, congested and combination skins will enormously benefit from facial oils. Super Oil contains plant oils that contain anti-bacterial, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties which will help tackle breakouts, spots, and blemishes. When spots and breakouts are red and inflamed a facial oil can help reduce the swelling and the redness of the spot. It is important to keep the skin bacteria levels balanced, plant oils offer antibacterial properties to aid the skin and prevent further breakouts. If your skin is showing signs of a compromised skin barrier and it's dry, flaky and sensitive ensure you use facial oils daily in your skin care routine. Super Oil is packed with omegas 3, 6 and 9 essential for rebuilding and strengthening the skin's barrier, locking in hydration and limiting water evaporation all crucial for a dry, dehydrated and sensitive skin. Free radicals attack and damage the skin daily, collagen and elastin are just a few elements of the skin's structure that is disrupted. Lines and wrinkles, loss of firmness, slackness and aging skin are all accentuated by the attack of free radicals. Antioxidants offer protection to the collagen and elastin and if you want to preserve the collagen and delay the ageing process antioxidants should be in your skincare routine. Super Oil is packed full of antioxidants and vitamins to protect and repair the damage caused by free radicals.

WHEN SHOULD I USE SUPER OIL?

Use Super Oil at night-time as the last product in your bedtime skincare routine. Using the Super Oil at night-time allows the skin to take full advantage of all the powerful properties the super oil has to offer. Whilst we sleep the skin is more receptive therefore allowing all the vitamins and omegas to fully treat the skin. Super Oil has an incredible affinity with the skin and delivers outstanding results. During the night, the skin is repairing the tissues that have been attacked from the day and therefore the cell renewal is at its peak. Whilst these two elements are important for the skin, the cells do face an additional challenge which is dehydration. Super Oil limits the skin from dehydrating and prevents further water loss, ensuring you wake up to plump, hydrated glowing complexion. A hydrated skin is a healthy skin and keeps sensitivity, dryness and dehydration at bay.

DOES ACTIVE SUPER OIL HELP STRESS?

Stress manifests in the skin for up to 6 months causing sensitivity, redness, irritation, breakouts and inflammation in the skin. Super Oil is power packed full of anti-inflammatory plant oils that immediately offer calming, soothing properties whilst reducing the inflammation that causes redness, itching and irritation. The moment we are stressed the body produces a hormone known as cortisol, a build up in the skin causes over stimulation of the skin's oil glands which leads to breakouts, red spots, irritation and congestion. Cortisol has also been linked to breaking down collagen and elastin and causing lines and wrinkles. Sadly, high levels of cortisol caused by stress hinders the skin repair process causing a whole host of skin problems including compromising the skin's barrier. Super Oil contains African Star Grass that instantly offers comfort and tranquillity to a stressed skin and Thistle oil helps relieve skin redness and irritation.
