Calendula and Oat Facial Moisturizer For Sensitive, Rosacea-Prone Skin & Redness

At a glance: For Sensitive, Rosacea-prone, and Inflamed skin, Facial Moisturizer, Fragrance Free, Unscented, 50g tinted glass jar.

Who it's for: Seeing red? We can help with that. Whether it's rosacea, ultra-sensitive skin or inflammation from acne breakouts, this hydrating moisturizer is enriched with soothing ingredients that calm redness by drawing on the anti-inflammatory properties of pure plant extracts. We've also included 20% zinc in this moisturizer for daily UV protection.

How to Use

• Cleanse your skin.
• Apply your hydrator, plus any other routine booster products (i.e. serums/mists/etc.)
• Start by applying a nickel-sized amount of moisturizer to the whole face. A little goes a long way with this rich moisturizer, so start light and add more as needed. Due to the zinc content of this moisturizer, it’s best to apply it while your hydrator has not fully absorbed. This will make this mattifying moisturizer easier to spread.
• You can alternatively add a few drops of your favourite serum or hydrator and mix them with the moisturizer in your palm before application.
• Don’t forget to moisturize your neck as well. This area is often forgotten and can show our age if we aren’t taking proper care of it.
• Allow moisturizer to absorb before moving on to applying your foundation. If using mineral foundation, allow to fully absorb for a minimum of 5 mins. Cream foundations can be applied once the majority has been absorbed in the first few minutes.

Healing Herbs

Rich in healing herbs and botanicals for those dealing with acne breakouts, rosacea flareups and sensitive skin, this nourishing moisturizer focuses on traditional medicinal plants that are known for their ability to reduce inflammation and support the skin's healing process including,

• Calendula - a sunny little flower that makes the perfect "first aid" botanical as it's soothing to irritated, damaged, and injured skin, comforts and calms itchy skin, and relieves redness quickly. 
• Rose - the pretty petals from this romantic botanical infuse cooling, antiseptic, and redness-reducing flower power into this moisturizer.  
• Cucumber - a soothing, cooling, water-rich vegetable that takes the heat out of sore, red skin.
• Oats  - a deep healing whole grain for the skin, oats help soothe itchy, inflamed skin while providing antioxidant nourishment for depleted skin.
• Pumpkin - a barrier-repairing, vitamin-rich vegetable that supports sensitive skin with a dose of essential fatty acids.

Zinc: Skin-Protecting and Oil Balancing 

While all of our facial moisturizers contain either zinc or titanium dioxide (to help fight free radicals by blocking UV rays), zinc makes up 20% of the ingredients in this daily non-greasy moisturizer. That's the equivalent to many natural sunscreens on the market (though please see the "additional info" section on this page for information on being sun safe)!

Zinc also adds to the inflammation-reducing properties of this moisturizer and helps lock moisture in where it's needed most!

Constantly battling oily skin? Zinc also contains excellent mattifying properties that provide oil control support throughout the day.

Potent Plant Antioxidants

To increase the level of potent skin-supporting antioxidants, we also blended in sunflower oil and turmeric into this hydrating face cream.

Non-comedogenic (non-pore-clogging) sunflower oil provides the skin with the lipid building blocks it needs to repair its natural barrier - this barrier keeps irritants from causing further redness and sensitivity. Supporting and fortifying this barrier is essential for reducing and preventing redness. Once absorbed, sunflower oil delivers moisture deep below the skin's surface, along with vitamin E and A.

Turmeric has been used for centuries to reduce the effects of rosacea and other inflammatory conditions while feeding the skin a rich source of potassium, vitamin B6, magnesium, and vitamin C.
