The Ritual
Have Oily Skin?
If you have oily skin or struggle with breakouts, the idea of applying oil to your face may seem counterintuitive and overwhelming. However, incorporating our Saffron Serum into your skincare routine can actually be highly beneficial, even for oily skin types. Allow us to explain...
Balancing sebum production
Oily skin often produces an excess of sebum, leading to a shiny or greasy complexion. Surprisingly, using a lightweight oil like Saffron Serum can help restore balance to sebum production. When the skin is adequately hydrated, it signals the sebaceous glands to reduce oil production, thus diminishing excessive oiliness.
How does our serum achieve this?
It harnesses the properties of the Indian Barberry herb, which is renowned for its ability to reduce the production of skin lipids (sebum).
Maintaining hydration
There is a common misconception that oily skin doesn't require additional moisture, and applying a moisturiser may worsen the oiliness. As a result, oily skin often lacks proper hydration. However, our Saffron Oil contains an extract from the seed of the Blue Lotus, which serves as a natural skin moisturiser. Its properties mimic the skin's natural sebum, helping regulate moisture levels and promoting a healthier complexion.
Toning and nourishing
The inclusion of the Mahua flower in our serum provides it with cooling properties and acts as a skin toner. This ensures that your oily skin receives the necessary nourishment and maintains a balanced appearance.
If you have oily skin, we recommend starting with just one or two drops of Saffron Oil to assess its compatibility and observe the positive effects it can have on your skin.
