No wonder it’s called “immortelle” or “Everlasting Oil”, like Imagine an oil so powerful it can heal scars, slow down aging, and soothe irritated skin all at once.
Helichrysum essential oil has a chemical compound called Italicones. These compounds repair skin at the cellular level. They help regenerate new skin cells, repair damaged tissue, and fade scars or stretch marks over time.
So say you’ve had acne scars for years, Italicones encourage your skin to rebuild healthy tissue, making scars less visible.

They also contain chemical compounds called Diketones (Unique to Helichrysum). These rare compounds are skin brighteners. They reduce hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone.

A 2019 study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology found that a topical cream containing helichrysum essential oil reduced scar appearance and improved skin elasticity in patients with post-surgical scars.

It also helps reduce inflammation and improve blood flow to injured or sore areas, easing pain naturally.
Use: Perfect for headaches, joint pain, muscle tension, and even menstrual cramps.

Its regenerative properties repair tissue quickly and prevent infections.
Use: Apply diluted Helichrysum oil to cuts, scrapes, burns, or surgical scars (dilute in carrier oils such as sweet almond, Rosehip oil , apricot kernel oil , carrot seed oil etc)

Remember, individual results may vary, and it’s crucial to consult with a healthcare professional before using helichrysum essential oil.

Did you know ?
The strongest antioxidants are found in this oil…. It can be used as a stand alone ingredient or combined with other powerful actives to achieve a specific effect.
•
Formulators and natural oil lovers need to fully embrace the unique benefits pomegranate seed oil possesses.
•
The oil can also stimulate the production of keratinocytes. These are cells that have the primary function of forming the skin barrier to prevent external damage. This then boosts the production of new skin cells, prompting the old cells to be shed from the skin.
•
This oil also has the added benefit of containing estrogen. This aids collagen production and can improve your skin’s texture, leaving it feeling more plumped and smooth.
•
A compound unique to pomegranate oil called punicic acid can help to improve elasticity and even skin tone while encouraging skin regeneration.

Luckily, we can use pomegranate oil to slow the aging process, while improving overall firmness and elasticity. This is thanks to its supply of vitamin C, punicic and linoleic acids, while a spectrum of other antioxidants work to improve circulation and brighten the skin.

Most people don’t know this, but carrot seed oil contains umbelliferone and luteolin, natural compounds with UV-absorbing properties.

It’s one of the few natural substances proven to shield skin from UV damage.
Carrot seed oil contains carotol, a rare compound that researchers have found to offer natural SPF-like protection. However this doesn’t mean it replaces sunscreen.

Do you deal with sensitive, inflamed, easily irritated skin, or formulate skin care products for this concerns ?

Carrot seed oil has falcarinol and falcarindiol… which are rare anti-inflammatory molecules found in carrot family plants. These reduce redness, calm dermatitis, and soothe eczema-prone skin. Scientists call it a natural skin modulator, meaning it helps your skin respond better to triggers.

In studies, carrot seed compounds stimulated fibroblast activity (the cells that make collagen + elastin). That means it doesn’t just fade scars… it tells your body to reconstruct damaged skin like new.

You should not see normal skin changes as problems that need to be fixed. Try to stop obsessing over minute and transient shifts in skin tone and colour, and adopt a sensible approach to skin care. Some things are beyond our control, some skin changes take a whole process.⁠

Getting in touch with its natural rhythms is the most straightforward path to a healthier Skin.

Not all Rosehip oils are the same.
If you’ve ever thought so , you were & still absolutely wrong.

I remember my experience with Rosehip seed oil , back when I was dealing with my own fair share of skin related issues, our producers took me on an amazing journey, we explored the difference in Rosehip species as I was being introduced to it.

If you purchase Rosehip seed oil outside of our brand , feel free to ask your vendor what specie of Rosehip is being sold to you, how it’s being sourced & grown.

Ever wondered why we get the best reviews in relation to our Rosehip oil especially with skin issues like scars, varicose vein , acne , stretch marks etc ?

Through a lot of research we have found that the specie of Rosehip we provide works best for our customers , The main attribute that makes our Rosehip seed oil stand out against other specie is its Trans-Retinoic Acid content. This natural active is what Rosa Rubiginosa is famed for, and why it’s so effective at restoring and regenerating scar tissues and fading fine lines and wrinkles. It’s a natural derivative of Vitamin A that helps the skin to repair and push fresh cells to the epidermis.

Our natural oils cannot be compared to what’s generally available, we put a lot of work into research, sourcing & sustainability. Each and every product by us as been ethically and sustainably sourced and grown.

Sea Buckthorn Fruit Oil is a category of its own.
it carries over 190 active compounds that go far beyond hydration. This oil speaks the same “language” as your skin cells, repairing, renewing, and protecting them on a level most products will never reach.

Its natural beta-carotene (the pigment that gives it its rich orange-red color) doesn’t just tint, it penetrates into skin layers, reducing stubborn discoloration, melasma, and uneven skin tone.

Your skin barrier is your natural shield. When it’s broken, you get sensitivity, redness, and dehydration. Sea buckthorn fruit oil restores this barrier with a perfect balance of fatty acids that lock in moisture and rebuild resilience.

Acts as a bioactive booster in serums, creams, and balms, delivering skin-regenerating compounds that elevate the product beyond “basic hydration.”
• Perfect for targeted formulations (anti-aging serums, scar-healing balms, hyperpigmentation treatments, after-sun care, and barrier repair creams.

Whether you’re buying for your skin or creating for others, one fact is clear: this oil is not a luxury. it’s a necessity. Oxygen is not optional, and neither is Sea Buckthorn Fruit Oil.
