They use pure plant oils that have been cold pressed without the use of any solvent (hexane free) and are mostly unrefined, unbleached and have not been deodorized so that they retain their nutritional benefits. Their formulations are free from harsh chemicals/preservatives, synthetic ingredients or petro-chemicals and are never tested on animals!
I was thrilled when owner Joshua reached to me to see if I wanted to try their products. After reading up on the ingredients, I was more than happy to accept!
Here is what I received:
1) Refresh Facial Oil Cleanser - Since I started using an oil cleanser as part of my nightly skincare routine, I honestly can't imagine ever being without one! This beautiful cleanser hits all the right notes with me, with both ingredients and performance. The uplifting citrus scent refreshes the senses, reduces mental fatigue and relieves stress, while Camellia and Rice Bran Oils provide EFA's as well as anti-oxidants to protect the skin from pre-mature aging. This also includes a nourishing combination of essential oils - Bergamot (detoxification), Neroli (stimulates growth of healthy new skin cells), and Pettigran (anti-acne) which all work together to clarify, tone and firm skin. Besides the ingredients and scent, I really love that my skin feels hydrated rather than greasy after using this (if your skin does feel greasy afterwards, try using a bit less next time), and my skin seems to break out less since I added this to my nightly routine.
Price - $20 for 2oz
Ingredients - Camellia sinensis (Camellia) seed oil*, Oryza sativa (Rice bran) oil*, Limnanthes alba (Meadowfoam) seed oil, Ricinus communis (Castor) seed oil, Tocopherol (Non-GMO Vitamin E), a proprietary blend of organic and wildcrafted essential oils: Bergamot, Neroli, Petitgrain, Litsea Cubeba.
*ORGANIC
2) Organic Neroli Apple Cider Vinegar Facial Toner - This lovely facial toner combines two of my favorite ingredients for acne prone or aging skin - Organic Neroli and Raw Apple Cider Vinegar. Neroli contains anti-bacterial and skin regenerating properties, while the Apple Cider Vinegar restores a healthy ph to the skin. Vinegar also contains malic acid, which gently exfoliates, helping to keep skin clear and smooth. Note: If you are not a fan of the way Apple Cider Vinegar smells, Holiskin does have a Neroli Toner without it.
Price - $15 for 2oz
Ingredients - Citrus aurantium amara Flower Distillate*, Raw Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar*.
*ORGANIC
3) Renewal Facial Oil Serum for Oily Acne Prone Skin (roll on) - There is so much goodness in this serum that I don't know where to even begin! This contains Sacha Inchi, Camellia and Evening Primrose oils which are rich in Omega 3, 6 and 9 essential fatty acids, and Helichrysum, Lavender, Patchouli and Frankincense essential oils, which are known for their skin healing and regenerating properties (making them great for acne and acne scarring!). Benefits of this serum include:
- Promotes wound healing
- Protects against free radical damage
- Reduces inflammation and infection
- Helps improve skin elasticity
- Helps reduce stress and anxiety
- Soothes irritated skin
- Reduces the appearance of tiny age lines
I absolutely adore this serum! It absorbs deeply and fairly quickly and leaves my skin looking refreshed and glowy in the morning. My only wish is that it came with a dropper instead of a roller, as I find it hard to get enough product with a roll on (maybe I'm challenged, but I find droppers easier to distribute product). Other than that, this is one of the best serums I've tried for my skin type. :-)
Price - $16 for 10ml
Ingredients - Plukenetia volubilis (Sacha Inchi) seed oil*, Camellia sinensis (Camellia) seed oil*, Vitis vinifera (Grape) seed oil, Oenothera biennis (Evening Primrose) oil*, Cucurbita pepo (Pumpkin) seed oil, Tocopherol (Non-GMO Vitamin E), Eriocephalus punctulatus (Cape Chamomile) oil*, Helichrysum italicum (Immortelle) oil*, Lavandula angustifolia (Lavender) oil*, Commiphora myrrha (Myrrh) oil*, Pogostemon cablin (Patchouli) oil*, Boswellia carterii (Frankincense) oil*.
*ORGANIC or WILDCRAFTED
4) Intensive Repair Acne Scar Treatment - THIS was the product that had me the most excited to try the line! And I have to say, I was not disappointed in the least! With the inclusion of Tamanu Oil, Helischrysum Italicum, Frankincense, Rosewood, Geranium and Ylang Ylang essential oils, this spot treatment is super concentrated and quite effective. I can honestly say that I have noticed a slight difference in the depth and length of some of my worst scars since I have been using this and I can't begin to say how happy that makes me! With continued use, I hope to see even better results! I can't recommend this enough for anyone who is suffering with indented acne scarring!
Price - $22 for 1/2 fl oz
Ingredients - Camelina sativa (Camelina) seed oil, Calophyllum inophyllum (Tamanu) seed oil*, Tocopherol (Non-GMO Vitamin E), Essential oils of Helichrysum italicum*, Frankincense, Rosewood*, Geranium* & Ylang Ylang*.
*ORGANIC
