Super Restore Oil - Prickly Pear and Bakuchiol Face Oil
A face oil that works for oily skin.
Super Restore Oil is formulated around organic cold-pressed prickly pear seed oil and bakuchiol. Two ingredients chosen specifically because they suit oily, blemish-prone, and sensitive skin.
Lightweight. Fast-absorbing. Non-comedogenic.
Skin that looks congested, uneven, or dull. Skin that feels reactive after actives. Oily skin that's also somehow dehydrated. Skin that needs something to balance it rather than strip it further.
Organic Cold-Pressed Prickly Pear Seed Oil
Prickly pear seed oil has the highest Vitamin E content of any plant oil. It's rich in omega 6 and 9 fatty acids and absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy residue. Suitable for oily and blemish-prone skin - it's non-comedogenic and won't add to congestion. The cold-pressing process preserves the full fatty acid profile.
Bakuchiol
A plant-derived ingredient extensively studied alongside retinol in published dermatology research. A 12-week randomised, double-blind trial published in the British Journal of Dermatology found equivalent reductions in the appearance of fine lines and uneven skin tone compared to retinol, with significantly better tolerability. It helps skin look smoother and more even over time without the dryness and peeling often associated with retinol use.
Blue Tansy
Blue Tansy helps skin appear calm and comfortable. It suits reactive, stressed-out, or blemish-prone skin and contributes to the oil's characteristic deep blue colour, a natural result of the chamazulene content.
Squalane
One of the most universally well-tolerated ingredients in skincare. Squalane absorbs easily, doesn't clog pores, and helps skin look and feel balanced. Suitable for every skin type including oily.
Two to three drops warmed between your palms. Press into skin as the last step of your evening routine, after your serum. For morning use, apply before SPF.
Works well after the Clearing Rescue Serum, the serum addresses clarity and congestion, the oil addresses balance and texture. Two products, two different jobs.

Yes. Super Restore Oil is specifically formulated for oily and blemish-prone skin.

Bakuchiol has been extensively studied alongside retinol in published dermatology research. A 12-week randomised, double-blind trial in the British Journal of Dermatology found equivalent reductions in the appearance of fine lines and pigmentation compared to retinol, with significantly better tolerability. It is a plant-derived ingredient that helps skin look smoother and more even over time, without the dryness or peeling commonly associated with retinol.
Apply the Clearing Rescue Serum first to clean skin. Wait for it to absorb, then apply two to three drops of Super Restore Oil as the last step. The serum works on clarity and congestion at the surface level. The oil works on balance and texture. They complement each other rather than competing.
No. Prickly pear seed oil has a low comedogenic rating and is non-comedogenic. It absorbs quickly and is specifically suited to oily and blemish-prone skin. It will not add to congestion. This is one of the reasons it is the hero ingredient in Super Restore Oil - it delivers the fatty acid and Vitamin E benefits of a rich botanical oil without the pore-clogging risk of heavier oils like coconut or olive.
Squalane is a lightweight, fast-absorbing ingredient that helps skin look and feel balanced and hydrated. It is non-comedogenic and suitable for every skin type including oily. Your skin naturally produces something similar - squalene, which is why squalane is so well tolerated. In Super Restore Oil it works alongside prickly pear and bakuchiol to help skin look smoother and more settled without heaviness or grease.
Yes. Super Restore Oil is formulated specifically with oily and blemish-prone skin in mind. All four ingredients - prickly pear seed oil, bakuchiol, squalane and blue tansy are non-comedogenic. Blue tansy helps skin appear calm and comfortable. Bakuchiol is extensively studied and well-tolerated, including by skin types that find retinol too harsh. The formula contains no synthetic fragrance, mineral oils or comedogenic ingredients.
