Evergreen Facial Elixir
Refreshing white pine needles from the Maine forest and vibrant orange calendula petals from my herb garden, combined with sunflower and hemp seed oils make this rejuvenating formulation for the face. These plant-based ingredients are known to soften and smooth skin and help reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
Evergreen elixir is highly moisturizing and absorbs easily and quickly into skin. Calendula is often added to facial care products because it is known to diminish wrinkles and promote regeneration of the skin. Pine contains vitamins A and C. Both stimulate collagen synthesis and cell regrowth, soften wrinkles, and promote even-toned skin. Pine is rich in terpenes, which are known to calm and detoxify skin. Both calendula and pine have antioxidants that fight free radical damage, and antiseptic properties that inhibit the growth of acne-causing bacteria.
My carrier oils of choice for this elixir are sunflower and hemp seed oils. Both absorb readily, are highly moisturizing and calming, and will not clog pores.
∆ This formulation comes in a 1/2 oz. green (to protect from light) glass bottle with dropper. It is airtight and leak-proof.
∆ No essential oils are used in this formula.
