The eleven botanical oils in the Intense Repair Serum have the following intended functions:
Baobab: Baobab oil is highly moisturising and soothing, and contains vitamins A, D, E and F.
Vitamins A and F (which are polyunsaturated fatty acids) are actively involved in the rejuvenation and renewal of cell membranes, while vitamin E is a superior antioxidant, which helps to fight ageing.
Calendula oil: Calendula oil has great antiinflammatory properties. This oil is great to help
treat, inflamed and itchy skin conditions, and also burns and eczema.
Wheat germ oil: This oil is very high in vitamin E, which is a natural antioxidant. It helps to promote the formation of new cells, improve circulation, and helps repair sun damage to the skin.
Vitamin E oil: Vitamin E acts as an antioxidant and prevents the formation of free radicals in the skin cells. It also has anti-inflammatory properties and can thus help to treat skin ageing, dry skin, sunburn, scars and stretch marks.
Apricot kernel oil: This moisturising and nourishing oil is particularly helpful for dehydrated, delicate, mature and sensitive skin, and it helps to soothe inflammation.
Rosehip oil: Rosehip oil helps to reduce the signs of ageing, especially fine lines around the eyes and lines around the mouth, the drying effects of the sun and climate, as well as assisting with reducing the appearance of both accident and surgical scars. It helps the skin heal and regenerate and prevents the formation of ugly scar tissue.
Black currant oil: The oil helps to normalise skin problems such as dry, flaky patches.
Avocado oil: is often used for clients with dry or mature skins, or people suffering from eczema or psoriasis, and is very useful when treating sun or climate damaged skin that is dehydrated and undernourished, as it is said to help with regenerating the skin and softening skin tissue.
Sweet almond oil: This oil helps the skin to balance moisture loss and aids with the absorption of moisture. It is a great moisturiser, which is suitable for all skin types, helps relieve irritation, inflammation and itching, and is greatly lubricating. Not only does almond oil help protect the surface of the skin. It also acts as a skin soother and softener while conditioning the skin and promoting a clear and young looking complexion.
Soya bean oil: Soya bean oil is an extremely nutritious oil, which can do wonders to improve the quality of the skin. Soya bean oil helps in restoring the luster and imparts a glow to the skin. It helps in healing the damage that is done to the skin by pollution and sun exposure. The oil contains specific effective antioxidants which helps to maintain skin health and gives a special glow to the face. Antioxidants such as Vitamin E and Vitamin B complex, prevent the development of wrinkles.
Rooibos infused oil: This oil calms and moisturises your skin, and helps improve the appearance of scars, uneven skin tone and stretchmarks. The antioxidants and flavonoids in Rooibos have anti-ageing and anti-allergenic effects.
