Whether your complexion is dry, oily, combination, or sensitive, choosing the right botanical ingredients can help you create a skincare routine that's perfectly suited to your skin. Essential oils, hydrosols, and virgin plant oils work together to nourish, hydrate, and support your skin's natural balance - all with simple, certified organic ingredients.
Why choose natural skincare?
The answer is simple: your health & wellbeing. The skin, or epidermis, is a living organ that forms a protective shield against environmental stressors: UV rays, allergens, infectious agents, water loss, etc. Much of what we apply to our skin is absorbed by our body. Just as we strive to eat natural foods that nourish our health, it's important that we're feeding our skin natural ingredients, too.
You can find what you need with essential oils, virgin plant oils and hydrosols, regardless of whether your skin is dry, oily or sensitive! And if this transition to a more natural routine seems a little daunting, consider taking it slowly step by step.
The First Step: Cleanse Your Skin Naturally
To clean your skin, it's important not to use traditional cleansers that contain harsh chemical detergents. These tend to strip the skin of its oils, which can leave skin feeling dry, tight, or unbalanced.
Instead, we recommend using a gentle, neutral oil like Sweet Almond or Jojoba. Oil cleansing works because like attracts like - the oil gently binds to excess sebum, dirt & makeup, lifting it from your pores while leaving your skin's natural moisture barrier intact.
To use an oil cleanser, warm several drops between your palms. Gently massage into your skin, then use a warm, damp washcloth to remove. Repeat as needed.
Regimens by Skin Type
Each complexion has unique needs, but every routine follows the same simple three-step ritual:
1. Cleanse with a gentle Virgin Plant Oil such as Sweet Almond or Jojoba.
2. Mist generously with your recommended Hydrosol to tone and hydrate the skin.
3. Nourish by applying 4–6 drops of your customized facial oil blend to the face and neck morning and/or evening while the skin is still slightly damp from your hydrosol.
Below are our favorite botanical pairings for each skin type.
Normal Skin
If your skin is neither overly oily nor dry, you likely have a naturally balanced complexion. The goal is simply to support that balance with gentle botanical care that helps maintain softness, hydration, and a healthy-looking glow.
Recommended Hydrosol
Follow cleansing with a generous mist of Rose Geranium Hydrosol. Gentle and balancing with a fresh, rosy aroma, it's an excellent choice for everyday skincare.
Customized Facial Oil Blend
-
- Rose Otto essential oil: 2 drops
- Lavender essential oil: 4 drops
- Argan virgin plant oil: 30ml
Designed to promote a radiant-looking complexion while supporting balanced, nourished skin.
Dry Skin
Dry skin naturally produces less sebum, making it more prone to feelings of tightness, roughness, and a dull-looking complexion. It can also be more affected by factors such as cold weather and dry air. One benefit of dry skin is its refined texture and nearly invisible pores.
Recommended Hydrosol
Mist generously with Neroli Hydrosol. Its light floral aroma and gentle hydrating properties leave dry skin feeling refreshed and comforted.
Customized Facial Oil Blend
-
- Lavender essential oil: 4 drops
- Ylang ylang essential oil: 1 drop
- Borage virgin plant oil: 15 ml
- Argan virgin plant oil: 15 ml
This nourishing blend helps lock in moisture while soothing any discomfort caused by dryness.
Oily & Combination Skin
Oily skin naturally produces more sebum and may have enlarged-looking pores or a shiny appearance, while combination skin often experiences oiliness through the T-zone with drier cheeks. Although these skin types produce more oil, they still benefit from lightweight hydration and nourishing botanical oils.
Recommended Hydrosol
Mist with Lavender Hydrosol to leave skin feeling refreshed and balanced.

Sensitive Skin
Sensitive skin isn't a skin type itself but rather a characteristic that can affect any complexion. If your skin frequently feels delicate, tight, or easily stressed by environmental factors, a gentle skincare routine can help keep it feeling comfortable and hydrated.
Recommended Hydrosol
Mist generously with Helichrysum Hydrosol, a wonderfully gentle hydrosol that helps soothe discomfort while replenishing moisture.

A comforting botanical blend for skin that prefers a little extra care.
Dehydrated Skin
Unlike dry skin, dehydrated skin is a temporary condition caused by a lack of water - not oil. It can affect any skin type and is often influenced by weather, environmental conditions, or daily lifestyle factors. Skin may feel tight or less supple without showing visible flaking.
Recommended Hydrosol
Generously mist with Lavender Hydrosol. Since dehydrated skin needs water, this hydrating step is especially important before applying your facial oil blend.

Mature Skin
As we age, it's natural for our skin to gradually lose firmness and radiance. Fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven-looking skin tone become more noticeable over time, making hydration and nourishment especially important.
Recommended Hydrosol
Mist generously with Rose Otto Hydrosol. Prized for mature skincare, it leaves the complexion feeling refreshed while helping skin appear radiant and revitalized.
