Handcrafted Youthful Face Oil

Made as a face oil, this handcrafted formula combines jojoba oil, rosehip seed oil, calendula-infused olive oil, argan oil, and lavender, geranium, and frankincense essential oils.

Jojoba oil is in many instances used for lightweight hydration. Rosehip seed oil is also usually used for antioxidant support and skin clarity. Argan oil is also commonly used to condition and smooth skin and hair. Lavender oil also acts to support calm and soothe irritated skin. Geranium oil is also often used for balancing sebum production in oily or combination skin. Frankincense oil is also commonly used to soothe skin and support emotional calm.

Skin care engages touch at each step of a routine, and the step depends on the product. Cleansing products lift surface oils, debris, and bacteria from the skin (Aiello & Larson, 2002). Moisturizing products such as creams, lotions, and balms add emollients that soften the skin surface and help hold in hydration. Serums, masks, and treatments are applied to specific areas of the face, and the pressure of application adds to the sensation. Applying any of these products activates C‑tactile afferents, the nerve fibers that process pleasant touch (Löken et al., 2009; McGlone et al., 2014). Slow, massage‑like pressure is associated with reduced stress and relaxation (Field, 2010; Field, 2015), and warmth and absorption add to the sensation as the product meets the skin.

Anyone with a skin condition, allergies, or sensitivities should consult a physician or dermatologist before use.

Pairing Note

Aroma: Topical interaction paired with aroma becomes aromatic‑surface experience. Cultures combine botanicals with oils, creams, and hair treatments because aroma carries symbolic meaning, lineage, and spatial identity (Classen, Howes & Synnott, 1994). These practices persist because aromatic pairing strengthens emotional recall (Herz, 2016) and supports cultural continuity (Assmann, 2011).
