Aniseed Myrtle BHA Refining Cleansing Oil
Aniseed Myrtle BHA Refining Cleansing Oil prevents and improves chronically clogged pores. It contains 2% BHA, (Beta Hydroxy Acid), which is the clinically recommended concentration of BHA ideal for deep exfoliation.
With continued use it will brighten by gently removing pigmented cells, and if skin is acneic, it will improve acneic skin by deeply cleansing clogged pores.
This beautiful, gentle cleansing oil is nutritious and lightweight. It emulsifies with water to gently yet effectively dissolve makeup, sunblock and natural skin grime.
Aniseed Myrtle (Syzygium anisatum) has been proven to decrease the pore index (outstanding pores, large pores, blackheads), improve inflamed blood capillaries and balance sebum production.
Kakadu Plum Oil (Terminalia ferdinandiana) is exceptionally high in linoleic acid which helps inhibit pimples, blackheads and whiteheads, and may help existing acne. Linoleic acid also helps to manage other types of inflammatory conditions, such as dermatitis and rosacea. One study found a 25% reduction in comedones size (pimples) over a one month treatment period using lineoleic acid.
Maroochy Nut (Macadamia ternifolia), also known as Queensland Nut Tree, is an Australian Indigenous plant that is exceptionally high in Omega-7. Sometimes called the 'Beauty Omega', it increases synthesis of elastin and collagen and helps to restore the skin's natural omega balance, protecting skin cells and supporting cellular health.
Maroochy Nut also contains high amounts of squalene and oleic acid that assist with cell regeneration. Squalene, with an 'e', (not to be confused with the synthesised Squalane with an 'a'), is naturally produced by the body with the sole purpose of keeping skin moisturised - and macadamias are full of it!
And it also contains phytosterols for skin protection and repair, as well as useful amounts of manganese, which is an antioxidant and essential mineral required for collagen production.
Maroochy Nut fatty acids also have anti-inflammatory properties that are helpful for all skins, including acne-prone skins.
Although it is a rich oil, it is very light with a low comodogenic rating.
