What are face oils and why use them?
Face oils function as emollients, to add moisture, and as occlusives, to lock in moisture. They are formulated to nourish and revitalize the skin by strengthening and repairing the lipid barrier. This is best done with cold-pressed, unrefined face oils. Our synergistic blends contain ingredients known to protect the skin, deeply moisturize, improve the clarity of the complexion, enhance elasticity, fight free radicals and oxidative damage, even skin tone, encourage cellular turnover, repair scar tissue and decrease inflammation. They contain gentle yet active biocompatible ingredients and nothing else.
Is this product for dry or dehydrated skin?
Dry skin is a skin type that often occurs when the body does not produce enough natural oils resulting in itchiness, redness, flakiness and increased incidence of dermatitis, psoriasis, and eczema. Dehydrated skin is a temporary condition in which the skin lacks water. This can occur in dry and oily skin types and manifests as congestion, sensitivity, dullness, lack of elasticity and oiliness. For dry skin we recommend our oils and balms, and for dehydrated skin we recommend our mist and serum. REPAIR is loaded with nourishing fatty acids that support the skin's barrier function and prevent dehydration. Use REPAIR with one of our hydrating products for complete skin nutrition.
Will this treat rosacea?
While there is no one cure for rosacea, the proper use of skincare products can control and reduce its appearance. We have received ample feedback from customers who have observed remarkable improvement in the appearance of their rosacea upon using LINNÉ. While the majority of LINNÉ ingredients are well recognized as anti-inflammatory, the products we recommend most for this condition are REFRESH face mist and REPAIR face oil. Beyond skincare, it is important to maintain a healthy balanced diet and manage our stress levels to reduce internal inflammation.
Can I use REPAIR on my hair?
Not just for the skin, REPAIR is perfect for facial and head hair - you can even try them on the hair... down there. These products are packed with nutrients known to nourish and protect both the hair and scalp. Ingredients such as jojoba and rose hip are especially good for addressing hair loss, improving dandruff, encouraging hair growth, and revitalizing dry, thinning or dull hair. Whether you apply these products just to the ends of hair to style and finish a look or use them as as a special scalp treatment they will help hair look healthy, shiny, and well-hydrated.
What is the difference between BALANCE and REPAIR?
BALANCE was formulated for oily or blemish-prone skin and REPAIR was formulated for skin that tends towards dryness, or requires care for sunburn, scars, or hyperpigmentation. REPAIR is made with rich and deeply nourishing seed and nut oils and regenerative, anti-inflammatory essential oils from the roots, rhizomes and bark of plants. The aroma is warm and woodsy. BALANCE is made with sebum-regulating seed and nut oils and antiseptic, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory essential oils from the aerial parts of plants. The scent of BALANCE is herbaceous and bright. Many LINNÉ loyalists use both oils, thus allowing for a customized regimen that supports the changes in skin. Others just love to use BALANCE in the morning and REPAIR at night.
Where is REPAIR in the order of products?
We recommend preceding oils with serums and mist for complete skin nutrition. LINNÉ products are marked with Roman Numerals as a nod to our namesake, the botanist Carl Von LINNÉ who laid the foundations for the taxonomical classification system. We borrowed this system to create our easy step protocol. Oils are Step V.
