Rosemary

— La'NA'

Continually referred to by Simplicité customers as a ‘miracle worker’ for breakouts and pimples, Rosemary Blemish Gel works without drying or any harsh action while quickly soothing all pimples and breakouts.  It further shows a rapid action in soothing ‘blind’ pimples caused by menstrual cycles or other hormonal fluctuations.  Vitamin A enriched to assist healing, Rosemary Blemish Gel is recommended for acute breakouts through THIN applications up to 4 to 6 times daily.

Key Ingredients & Benefits:

Fresh Aloe Vera juice is a powerful healing agent that is soothing. It also calms rashes.

Calendula, a source of pro-vitamins essential for skin firming, encourages the restructuring of damaged tissue.  Used for centuries to tone visible blood vessels, calendula was employed in ancient times to “comfort the heart and spirits.”

Rosemary, a herb regarded as sacred in many civilizations, is a natural antioxidant that improves the circulation to the skin, promotes healing and lessens the pain of certain skin problems.

Ti-Tree demonstrates outstanding qualities in being active against the growth of all three infective organisms—namely bacteria, fungi and virii.  Boosting the immune response to the skin’s own infection fighting mechanisms, it lessens inflammation, encourages the formation of healing tissue, and soothes irritations.

Spruce is antimicrobial and antiseptic.  It contains natural yet highly effective antibiotics.

Fir Tree soothes through its antibacterial properties.

Lavender balances the sebum secretion of the skin, encourages cellular regeneration, reduces surface scarring and acts as an antibiotic. It is also calming and soothing in the treatment of acne and pimples.

Fresh Witch Hazel extract, a natural cleanser, firms the protein strands of the skin.  It further reduces inflammation and alleviates the swelling cystic acne. 

Sage inhibits bacteria in the treatment of acne and regulates sebum production.  Used in soothing skin washes, it remedies dermatitis and eczema.  One of the sacred herbs from Roman times, sage comes from the Latin word for salvation, as it was used to cure many illnesses and promote longevity. 

Please Note: Therapeutic levels of sage used in this formula are not to be equated with “toxic” levels, which are many times higher.  Applying this product over the small area of the face is entirely different from using undiluted sage essential oil over the entire skin surface of the body.  Toxic doses are estimated at 12ml to 50ml and above of the pure essential oil.  Therefore, do not use these levels in baths or where the entire amount is massaged over the body in one treatment with carrier oil.  Applying all over the body, such as when used in baths or for massage, greatly increases the surface area available for absorption and gives a much longer period of time over which the essential oil can be absorbed.  Avoid using pure sage essential oil at these higher toxic doses on children, if pregnant or on epilepsy sufferers.

Equisetum, rich in mineral nutrients that reduce scarring, supports the skin’s natural infection fighting defenses.

Hypericum, which calms and soothes redness, contains flavonoids found to encourage effective micro-circulation.  It also delivers exceptional healing agents. In fact, the herb itself, with yellow, five-petal flowers, was considered to reflect its healing colour, which was thought to be yellow. The common name, St. John’s Wort, was in tribute to St. John the Baptist, and the word wort is a medieval word meaning herb.  With centuries-old history in treating skin trauma, it relieves pain and serves as an anti-inflammatory.

Carrot extract revitalizes the tone of the skin, restores elasticity, improves micro-circulation, and is used in the treatment of rashes— including dermatitis and eczema.  Because of its rich levels of vitamin A precursors, carrot is highly valued for its external healing effect.

Chlorophyll detoxifies the skin and fights bacteria.

With a wealth of naturally organic benefits, Rosemary Blemish Gel is the healthy, safe and effective answer to problematic skin.
