Balance oil production with this versatile herbal oil that can address itchy scalps, contribute to hair health, minimize painful acne flareups and keep hormonal blemishes at bay. It’s going to leave your skin soft, nourished and clean.
The majority of cleansers, shampoos and soaps out there are stripping your skin. That means they are "cleaning" away all the good with the bad. But there's a lot about the skin that is good! Good bacteria. Good oils.
Use this for:
Scalp oil
Face cleanser
Itchy beard maintenance
Minimize appearance of pores
This is our best product for oily skin types, including those that suffer from cystic acne.
We can thank cedar leaf for its anti-bacterial properties and spearmint for it's cooling sensation.
No floral ingredients, making is ideal for those with such allergies. The scent is minty and earthy and subtle.
Ingredients: Organic Cold Pressed Grape Seed Oil, Organic Cold Pressed Olive Oil, Organic Cold Pressed Canadian Hemp Seed Oil, Organic Castor Seed Oil, Chemical Free Cedar Leaf Extract*, Organic Spearmint Leaf Extract*, Rosemary Extract*, Rosemary Essential Oil, Peppermint Essential Oil.
*Cedar from my yard, organic spearmint leaves and dried rosemary were infused into a blend of Grape Seed and Olive oil as the main component of this conditioner.
Acne Prone Face Moisturizer: This Botanical Conditioner is the best moisturizer for very oily skin. Why? Because it's ingredients are astringent and antibacterial, noncomedogenic and nutrient rich. Remember a little goes a long way. Always apply an oil based product to a damp face (hence the relentless toner recommendations). Always massage the oil INTO the face. This encourages collagen production while ensuring the product penetrates deeper layers of skin (rather than sitting ON the skin).
Scalp Treatment: Think of this as a “pre-conditioner”. Make sure your hair has been brushed, but not necessarily cleaned. I like to run the dropper along various "parts", creating segments as I slowly squeeze the dropper and encourage small amounts of oil directly onto the scalp. Once I'm content with the amount of oil around the scalp, I do a head massage to make sure the oil is covering as much of the scalp as I want. Then I'll apply any excess (or extra) to the ends of my hair. I like a lengthy treatment. I tend to do this treatment on a lazy day. I can either have my hair up or under a cap then I'll wash my hair in the evening. You could leave it on for an hour or two before you wash it out, or all day, or overnight. When you wash, do so as you normally would. Wash. Rinse. Condition. Rinse. I suggest warm water for the wash and rinse, cool water for the conditioner rinse.
Oil Cleansing: This is how I wash my face every day. Rub oil around the face in circles for a minute or two. This draws out excess oils and dirt. Then you wash that away with a warm wash cloth. This removes the stuff you skin doesn't need while replenishing what your skin does need. Some people feel their skin is silky and smooth enough after a generous oil cleanse and don't need any other steps. I like to use The Detour Co Chamomile and Aloe Toner along with the face cream or oil, applied with a loving massage.
Bestseller
A customer with cystic acne wanted to try my products, and the shea-based face cream did not have the effect she was looking for. This helped me realize there was a group of people I wasn’t supporting… those with truly oily, painfully acne-prone skin. I needed something more astringent, lightweight, and antibacterial, so this botanical Conditioner was born! Initially, I made this as a face oil for our acne-prone friends. It has proven to be a very balancing oil that can support not just your skin but your scalp.
Just like our skincare products, we do emails a little differently. More intentionally. A less-is-more kind of approach.
