All Natural Face Oil - An Ancient Tradition of Luxury Skin Care
Our all-natural face oil is rooted in the ancient tradition of using plant-based oils for skincare, a practice that stretches back thousands of years across countless cultures. Long before modern cosmetics, people turned to whole extracts such as sunflower and olive oils to nourish and protect their skin, drawing on nature’s endless bounty for daily care and ritual. We take part in this tradition with our carefully formulated blend of nutrient-rich botanical oils, designed to restore balance and radiance.

Oil in Traditional Skincare
For thousands of years, cultures around the world have utulized on plant oils as the foundation for their skincare. In ancient Rome, oils were not only used for cleansing the skin but also as emollients, applied after bathing to seal in moisture and maintain a supple complexion. Olive oil was the Roman favorite, often scented with herbs or flowers, and used in daily ablutions and massage.
At the same time, the Celts whose lands stretched across much of non-Roman Europe used locally available botanical oils and fats in their grooming rituals. These were sometimes infused with medicinal herbs for healing or blended with aromatic plants for spiritual and ceremonial purposes, reflecting their deep connection to the land and its natural remedies.
The enduring use of oils in skincare speaks to their versatility and benefit. Unlike modern synthetic creams, natural oils offer nutrients your body needs and a simple, holistic approach to your skin's health. From jojoba to castor and meadowfoam seed, our Face Oil formulations draw on ancient traditions, combining time-honored ingredients with a modern understanding of skin biology. This continuity between past and present reflects a timeless truth: the skin thrives when nourished by nature.
