This winter I have been loving essential oils for skin care
so today I have another review on some natural oils for use on the face and body.
Ko Denmark is a skin care line that is founded by a woman
named Henriette who utilized her knowledge of botanicals and her family’s ancient
skin care secrets from their garden in Denmark to create some wonderful products.
The first product I am going to review is the jasmine -
neroli - rose body oil
The oil can be applied to clean, damp skin to
lock in “the body’s natural moisture.” It can even be used in the shower
before you step out or as an indulgent massage oil!
Ingredients
This oil contains: sunflower oil,
apricot oil, sweet almond oil, jojoba oil, aloe, vitamin E, olive oil, rose,
rosemary and neem.
I always read the labels of products I put in or on my body and if there are minimal amounts of quality additives it can mean the difference between purchasing a product or leaving it on the shelf. I like this oil because unlike many drugstore moisturizers it actually contains beneficial components instead of synthetics.
How it Works
After taking a warm shower the oil feels luxuriously moisturizing and the
scent has fresh, botanical aroma therapy benefits. After application I can feel trace amounts of oil on my skin until it dries. Because it is meant to be applied on damp skin the oil absorbs slowly due to the water barrier but feels pleasant and lasts long. I even add a few drops to my body lotions for more hydration. A nice deep tissue massage is also a wonderful way to allow the ingredients to seep in and relax tense muscles.
The only thing I would recommend is adding a dispenser because pouring the oil from the wide bottle opening can get a bit slippery.

The next product I am going to review is the jasmine –
neroli – rose anti-aging rosehip & evening primrose face serum
Description: “Luxurious anti-aging face serum designed to
help calm dryness and reduce fine lines. Primrose has the ability to clear the
skin and rosehip has a high concentration of fatty acids, vitamin E, vitamin C,
and vitamin A to promote cellular metabolism.”
The face oil contains many of the same natural ingredients
as the body oil and has a pleasant, mildly fresh herbal scent. It has a medicine dropper applicator which is ideal for dispensing the oil and contains no parabens, mineral oil, perfume or animal ingredients.
I primarily use this oil before bed because I don't use oil based products under my makeup. This oil provides instant soothing relief for dry skin. You only need 2-3 drops to hydrate the entire face. The more you use the more shine and product you will see on the skin but eventually the oil absorbs, dries and becomes less noticeable. It is also great for dry hands and moisturizing the cuticles. I use a tiny bit on my eyelashes before bed to help nourish the hair and promote growth.
These essential oils do not clog pores or cause acne but rather nurtures the skin with vitamins. The moisture lasts all night and by morning my complexion looks healthy and dewy.
This face oil retails for $38 per 30 ml you can find it HERE

The face oil sounds great! I've been using Tarte Maracuja oil and have been really liking how moisturizing it is.

Ooh this guises so great! My favorite masks all ran out or grew mold newly so I'm looking for stand-ins! Have you ever used Aztec clay? I like its suctioning-out-the-nastiest influence but it's too strong for my skin to use frequently...just curious how it associates to the Detox or Regenerated masks. Thanks in loan! face serum
ReplyDeleteI have yet to try this body oil. I think it is a nice product.
