This beard oil's amazing benefits!: - Seaweed is packed with antioxidants, alginates, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals that can work wonders in your everyday routine. This singular ingredient can revitalise your hair: improving circulation, strengthening hair follicles, stimulating hair growth and promoting shiny, healthy hair. - Golden Samphire: Of plant origin, Golden samphire (Inula crithmoides), one of its main components are Glycolipids, which help to strengthen the cohesion of the hair's lipids, thus providing better hair protection and restructuring, while helping to prevent oxidation and degradation of the hair bulb. - Olive oil is a natural, nutrient-rich emollient that deeply moisturises, softens, and strengthens hair while boosting shine. Rich in vitamin E, fatty acids, and antioxidants, it penetrates the hair shaft to reduce damage, tame frizz, and soothe dry scalps. It works best on thick, dry, or damaged hair. Key Benefits of Olive Oil for Hair: Deep Moisturisation & Softening: Olive oil contains oleic acid, which coats the hair shaft, sealing in moisture and reducing brittleness. Reduced Breakage & Frizz: By smoothing the outer cuticle, it makes hair more manageable, reduces friction between strands, and helps prevent split ends. Scalp Health: It can soothe a dry, itchy scalp and, due to its antifungal properties, may help manage mild dandruff. Increased Shine: It adds a healthy sheen, making hair appear healthier and more lustrous. Potential Growth Support: While not a cure for hair loss, its antioxidant properties can improve overall scalp health, creating a better environment for hair to thrive. - Hempseed oil provides intensive moisture, strengthens hair shafts, and promotes a healthy scalp through its high content of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, proteins, and antioxidants. It is lightweight, non-comedogenic, and helps reduce breakage, frizz, and split ends without leaving a heavy, greasy residue. Key Benefits: Deep Hydration & Shine: Rich in essential fatty acids, the oil penetrates the hair shaft to restore lipid balance, seal cuticles, and add lustre.

Antioxidants like Vitamin E and carotene help protect against environmental damage. Growth Support: By improving scalp circulation and providing essential nutrients, it can support a healthy environment for hair growth and density. - Vitamin E oil benefits hair by acting as a powerful antioxidant that reduces oxidative stress, potentially increasing hair growth and reducing hair loss. It deeply moisturises the scalp, reduces inflammation, and adds shine to hair while protecting strands from environmental damage and reducing breakage.

It helps maintain a healthy scalp, which can contribute to stronger, more resilient hair. Many people use juniper berry oil to support a balanced scalp environment, reducing excess oil or dryness and promoting overall hair vitality. - Black pepper oil is extracted from dried peppercorns. In the Ayurvedic tradition of natural healing, using black pepper oil for hair growth is also common, as it contains antioxidants that could help stimulate blood circulation of the scalp. - Cedarwood oil regulates sebum production, preventing the scalp from becoming excessively oily (which might feed fungi) or dry (which can cause flakiness). This balance is vital to keep the scalp healthy and free of excess flakes. A dry scalp frequently causes itching, which can irritate the scalp and worsen dandruff. 99% Certified Organic Ingredients: *Olea Europaea (Olive Oil), *Algae (Seaweed) Extract, *Salicornia Herbacea (Samphire) Extract, *Cannabis Sativa (Hemp) Flower Extract, *Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Juniperus Virginiana (Cedarwood) Oil, Piper Nigrum (Black Pepper) Seed Oil, Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Oil *Certified Organic Allergen Warning: Contains Limonene and Linalool (naturally present in essential oils).

Acne Treatment & Prevention: It has antimicrobial properties, specifically fighting P. acnes bacteria, which reduces breakouts and cleans clogged pores. Inflammation & Sensitivity Reduction: Minerals such as bromide and magnesium soothe irritation, redness, and inflammation, making it beneficial for skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. Anti-Ageing & Firming: Regular use can increase skin elasticity, improve skin metabolism, and improve texture, contributing to a firmer and younger-looking appearance. Gentle Exfoliation: The fine texture removes dead skin cells, promoting cell turnover and reducing dullness Directions for Use: Using a dry (powdered) clay mask involves mixing it to a creamy consistency, applying it to clean skin, and rinsing it off before it becomes completely dry and itchy. 1. Preparation: Cleanse: Start with a clean face to remove oil and dirt, allowing for better absorption. Using warm water or a warm towel first can help open pores. Mix the Mask: In a clean bowl fill (using the scoop provided) with dry clay and use a small amount of water or liquid (such as tea, honey, rose water, yogurt, or apple cider vinegar-or, for an intensive treatment, we recommend using our Seaweed, Facial Day Concentrate as the liquid part). Create Consistency: Add liquid slowly, mixing until it reaches a smooth, creamy mud-like consistency. 2. Application: Apply Evenly: Use your fingers or a mask brush to apply a thin, even layer to your face and neck, avoiding the sensitive eye and lip areas. Targeted Application: If you have combination skin, apply a thicker layer to the oily T-zone and a thinner layer elsewhere 3. Timing: Wait: Let the mask sit for 5 to 15 minutes. Don't Let it Fully Dry: According to experts, you should never let a clay mask dry to the point of cracking or flaking. Remove it when it is still slightly damp to avoid over-drying and dehydrating your skin. Sensations: Tightening is normal, but if it causes pain or intense burning, remove it immediately. 4. Removal & Post-Care: Softening: Use warm water and a washcloth to gently soften the mask before wiping it off to avoid pulling the skin. Rinse: Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Moisturise: Immediately apply a moisturiser or serum, as clay masks can remove natural oils, leaving skin dry. Using our Sea Minerals, Repairing Facial Day Cream will compliment this facial mask. Recommended Frequency: Oily Skin: 1–2 times per week, Dry/Sensitive Skin: Once every 1–2 weeks. Key Tip: Only mix enough for one treatment to avoid waste. 100% Certified Organic Ingredients: *Chlorella Vulgaris (Chlorella) Powder, *Kaolin (French Green Clay), *Maris Limus (Dead Sea Mud) Extract *Certified Organic Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
