Eternal Youth Facial Oil
A Yatlina in-house blend of fragrant Bulgarian rose petals, unique English heritage lavender buds and Egyptian calendula flowers set in French grapeseed oil and slow infused for weeks to bring out the best qualities of each plant and transfer it to the oil along with a delicately scented floral bouquet.
The result is a light, quick-absorbing facial oil with a silky smooth texture. It easily slides on your skin and leaves it with an invisible protective barrier that is ideal under make-up or for oily skin tones.
Immortal Beauty Facial oil
Immortal Beauty facial oil targets inflammation, hyperpigmentation and dehydration to give supple and healthy glowing skin and maintain an excellent protective barrier from environmental triggers.
This facial oil has been formulated with a deliberate medium absorption rate that leaves no residue, allowing time for massaging it into the skin, ideally using a gua sha tool to improve circulation and skin texture.
Lipid oils structure
Lipid oils comprise 85% or more essential fatty acid chains of different lengths and saturations. Their structure, in many cases, resembles the skin’s surface, making them a valuable addition to any skincare or wound care product.
How long can I keep my lipid oils, and How do I store them safely?
4 main factors can affect the shelf life of an oil. Light, Heat, Air, Time.
"Dry" and "Drying" Oils, What is the difference?
Some oils will have a dry feel when applied to the skin and tend to absorb pretty quickly. Others will leave a drying feel behind.
Can my Facial oil provide sunscreen protection?
Do some lipid oils provide sunscreen protection? I see a lot of posts about this in “clean beauty” blogs and posts. You should ditch the sunscreens full of “harmful chemicals” and use natural oils or butter like shea or coconut oil instead.
Well, you can.
Just be prepared to look like a wrinkled old prune and possibly cause irreversible skin damage to your cells.
Wound healing, can Lipid (carrier/plant) oils help?
Given that the essential fatty acids in lipid oils work on the inflammatory response and skin protection and structure, it is beneficial to apply certain oils that can help with the wound healing process. However, this application needs to be approached with caution.
Lipid oils and the different names they are known by.
Carrier oils, base oils, lipid oils, plant oils etc., are all names given to practically the same product or family of products. They are plant oils used to “carry” another ingredient through the skin barrier or as a “base” to dilute a blend together.They can also be referred to as “fixed” oils due to their relatively slow absorption rate on the skin.
Gua Sha: What is it and how to use it with your facial oil
While traditional Chinese use of gua sha does not only use the tool I sell here in the Yatlina store, it is an excellent way to introduce self-massage and manual lymph drainage to your daily routine.
