Benefits
Your skin will become:
- More radiant and your complexion, more even: Safflower oil is rich in vitamin K, a vitamin known for its action on blood coagulation and reducing redness. It’s an essential ally of blotchy or sensitive skin (redness).
- Softer and more supple: hemp oil is recognized for its soothing, calming and protective power. Its richness in omega 3 and 6 gives it undeniable restorative properties. Helping the maintenance of the hydrolipidic layer of the skin, it fights against dehydration.
- Healthier: Tamanu oil is famous for treating circulatory disorders. By promoting circulation and fluidity, it provides good protection of blood vessels and facilitates blood circulation (thanks to polyphenols). Healing and anti-infectious (thanks to the active ingredients calaustralin and inophyllolide), it promotes the regeneration of damaged skin tissue and provides suppleness and elasticity.
Rosacea characteristics
You are prone to rosacea when your skin has:
- Intense redness for short periods of time;
- Redness on the forehead, nose, cheeks and chin... The 1st stage of Rosacea.
This 1st stage of inflammation of the skin may progress, followed by other symptoms:
- Permanent redness and visibly dilated blood vessels: Couperose;
- Unsightly pimples: Acne Rosacea;
- Persistent edemas: Rhinophyma (the 4th stage of Rosacea).
This skin inflammation can start at the age of 25. It particularly affects women with fair skin. The peak of Rosacea occurs between ages 40 and 50. Men, more often than women, may have more severe forms of Rosacea (Rhinophyma) and are mostly over the age of 50.
It is a progressive, non-contagious inflammatory disorder that can affect all skin types.
If left unchecked, the condition deteriorates. Although there is no treatment that can cure the inflammation, some skincare products can reduce the frequency of episodes of inflammation and the progression of symptoms.
In addition to changing your lifestyle habits, it’s important to clean and moisturize your skin daily with gentle and appropriate skincare products and to use natural make-up (mineral powder etc.).
Directions for use
Place 2 or 3 drops on your fingertips. Apply to your cheeks and nose (avoiding the eye area).
We recommend application of the “Cr" serum in the evening (or morning and evening, depending on your skin’s needs).
If you are using the Cr serum in the evening, consider using a complementary serum in the morning (a serum best-suited for your skin type).
MORNING: Spritz some Lavender mist (hydrosol) onto your face (2 to 3 spritzes), followed by the application to your entire face of 2 or 3 drops of a moisturizing serum suitable to your skin type.
EVENING: Cleanse / remove make-up from your face with the "HYPNOS" cleanser, followed by a spritz of some Lavender mist (hydrosol) and an application of the “Cr” serum to the inflammation-prone areas of your face.
