Restore Elixir is your go-to for gentle, replenishing care when skin feels fragile, parched, or reactive. This botanical blend is crafted with barrier-repairing oils and soothing plant actives to calm sensitivity, hydrate deeply, and restore resilience.
Enriched with barrier-loving ingredients:
- Evening Primrose & Oat Kernel Oils – hydrate, replenish, and protect the skin barrier.
- Rosehip Oil – rich in antioxidants and fatty acids for repair and resilience.
- Calendula & Chamomile – calm irritation and reduce redness.
- Bisabolol – a natural chamomile-derived active that strengthens delicate skin.
Fragrance-free and allergen-conscious, this vegan elixir is ideal for managing flare-ups, post-treatment dryness, or anyone seeking minimalist, skin-kind care.
♻️ Bottled in amber glass to preserve potency and reduce hidden microplastics leaching from plastic containers.

💡 Notes
Free from added fragrance or essential oils. The botanical oils give a naturally earthy aroma, a sign of the ingredients in their pure, active form. The scent fades shortly after application.

I'm new to using a face oil but I must say it's already made quite a positive difference to my skin in the past two weeks alone it really does "restore", my dry patches are gone and my skin doesn't feel tender it feels much smoother and looks healthy, will see how I get on but so far I'm very pleased I didn't expect a face oil to work better than all my old creams and I've tried them all after suffering with very sensitive dry skin that gets easily inflamed. It's unscented but does carry a sort of "herby" scent.
Does the job. Skin feels more nourished and not tight and irritated, will continue use and report back.
Super product! I have very sensitive, dry and reactive skin and really struggle finding gentle products that work, in the past weeks my skin is healed, no longer dry and flaky and I feel like a new woman, very gentle ingredients that really work when using twice a day, my old product was three times the price and didn't work as well I'm really happy with this brand and use the face and body balm for my body.
This oil is perfect for dry and sensitive skin types to support and restore the skin barrier while nourishing, hydrating, and replenishing the skin.
This botanical blend is crafted with barrier repairing oils and soothing actives to strengthen resilience and restore comfort.
Formulated with Evening Primrose, Eat Kernel, Rosehip, Calendula, and Chamomile.
Description says that it's fragrance-free. However, I can notice delicate, herby, and enjoyable scent.
Bottle made from glass and easy to use because of pump dispenser.
I would recommend using it overnight to wake up to glowing, hydrated, and healthy looking skin.
I suffer with really sensitive and dry skin and some rosacea, this has really worked wonders for me, it's so gentle and full of some quality ingredients, a little goes a long way so the bottle is lasting me ages. I've fallen in love with this little brand and have tried their sensitive skin friendly body oil as well and the detox bath for my little ones and I'm so pleased with everything.
