Botanical Love face cream is a thick, non-greasy formula enriched with certified organic essential oils that smooths, moisturises and revitalises the skin.
We realise that everyones skin type is different, which is why we have recently expanded our range to include not just our everyday facecream, but also provide customers with the opportunity to customise their cream to suit their skin type.
We reccommend that you choose the facecream blend that best suits your skin type, and then within that you can customise your cream to include one, a few, or all of the oils on offer. You may wish to customise your blend to a paritcular smell, or simply include all oils. There is no limit to the number you choose, but keep in mind that some oils will get lost amongst more stronger smelling ones so the more you choose- the less likely that you will be able to idenify individual oils. The good news is that if you do select all oils, it will still smell amazing. Unlike fragrance oils which can smell nice but are harmful to the skin- the more oils used in your blend, the more it benefits your skin as each oil targes specific health benefits.
Please note: All face cream bases will include carrot and frankinsence organic essential oil as standard. If you do not want either of these included, please specifiy in your order.
See below for a brief outline on each oil offered in our sensitive skin wonder pot because they are particulary gentle on the skin.
Carrot oil (included as standard):
Carrot seed oil is rich in antioxidants, which makes it the perfect anti-ageing ingredient. It is beneficial as a rejuvenator for ageing skin. These antioxidants also protect your skin from sun damage. Carrot seed oil has potent antibacterial properties. It inhibits the growth of many harmful bacteria on the skin. The oil targets the bacteria alone and does not cause any damage to the underlying skin. Carrot seed oil exhibits anti-inflammatory properties and is believed to be soothing to the skin and scalp and helps to reduce redness, irritation and acne.
Frankinsence (included as standard):
Frankincense Organic Essential Oil is one of the most expensive oils to purchase but is well worth the money as it is so nourishing and beneficial for your skin. Frankincense oil is a natural astringent. This means that it is beneficial in skin care as it is believed to help improve the skin’s natural appearance by reducing the presence of skin blemishes, and heal imperfections and conditions including acne scars, discolouration, and hyperpigmentation. The use of Frankincense Organic Essential Oil in face cream can also work as an alternative to facial toners as it contains skin-nourishing and cooling properties that help remove traces of oil and makeup, and excess dirt.
Lavender:
Lavender Organic Essential Oil is one of my favourite oils to use in my skincare range because it can benefit the skin in so many ways. Lavender Organic Essential Oil contains antifungal properties to help reduce inflammation and kill bacteria, which may help to prevent and heal acne breakouts. The betacaryophyllene in the oil acts as a natural anti-inflammatory that make it great for soothing and healing skin that's irritated or reddened from the sun, insect bites, or bacteria. Organic Lavender Organic Essential Oil contains antioxidants that can help tackle free radicals and may reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. More research is needed, however, to confirm these effects.
Tea Tree:
The anti-inflammatory properties of Tea Tree Organic Essential Oil helps to soothe and relieve painful, itchy, dry or irritated skin. It may also help to reduce redness and swelling. The antiseptic properties of Tea Tree oil may contribute to its ability to combat oily skin.
Patchouli:
Patchouli Organic Essential Oil contains a variety of skin benefits that promote healthy, smooth and glowing skin. Patchouli is also believed to help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, blemishes, and minor skin imperfections.
Neroli:
Along with its regenerative qualities, Neroli Organic Essential Oil is also known for its antiseptic, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. This makes it a useful oil in creams to treat pimples and acne and reduce the redness associated with breakouts. Neroli oil intensely moisturises the skin and is believed to boost the natural process of cell regeneration, soothe the skin and reduce the appearance of blemishes.
Rose Geraniun:
It is believed that the antibacterial, antimicrobial, and antiseptic properties of Rose Geranium Organic Essential Oil make it beneficial for reducing acne breakouts, skin irritation, and skin infections. Rose geranium oil is reputed to effectively eliminate dead cells, tighten the skin, promote the regeneration of new skin, and diminish signs of aging.

My sensitive skin is the most hydrated, fresh and blemish free it has ever been using this face cream. It’s light, never oily and smells amazing. I’ve been using it for a few years now and wouldn't go back to anything else. Meg
