Rosehip Bioregenerate Oil

Pai's Rosehip Bioregenerate Oil is a best-selling skin-saviour packed with the nourishing and healing benefits of organic Rosehip Fruit and Seed oil. Sourced via supercritical extraction (a more expensive but gentler process than cold-pressing) to ensure a fresher, long-lasting blend of Rosehip Fruit and Seed oil, the deeply conditioning formula helps to restore balance and improve the appearance of sensitive skin. Rich in Omegas to help regenerate without irritation, the luxurious, deep orange oil is packed with more benefits than cold-pressed Rosehip Seed oil; it delivers skin healing properties and protective antioxidants to defend against damaging environmental aggressors. Infusing skin with nutrients, the oil fuels essential overnight regeneration, and intensely nourishes skin, improving the appearance of firmness and elasticity whilst promoting a more even tone. The highly concentrated blend will also contribute to the improvement of dryness, blemishes, dull skin, fine lines and scarring. Delicate, sensitive skin is left feeling confident and comfortable.

Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Extract* - goodie
Also-called: Rosemary Leaf Extract;Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Extract | What-it-does: antioxidant, soothing, antimicrobial/antibacterial

The extract coming from the lovely herb, rosemary. It contains lots of chemicals, including flavonoids, phenolic acids, and diterpenes. Its main active is rosmarinic acid, a potent antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory. It has also anti-bacterial, astringent and toning properties. 

The leaves contain a small amount of essential oil (1-2%) with fragrant components, so if you are allergic to fragrance, it might be better to avoid it. 

Squalene - goodie
What-it-does: skin-identical ingredient, antioxidant, emollient

Squalene is an oily liquid that originally comes from shark liver but luckily it can also be found in a couple of plant oils. Olive (0.6%), peanut (0.1%) and pumpkin (0.35%) oils contain it, though not in huge amounts. 

What contains more of it, is the sebum (the oily stuff) that our skin produces. About 13% of human sebum is squalene, which means that it’s an important skin-identical ingredient and NMF (natural moisturizing factor). 

Chemically speaking, it is an unsaturated (has double bonds) hydrocarbon (contains only carbon and hydrogen) molecule, that can undergo oxidation. On the pro side, this means that squalene can act as an antioxidant (while its no-double-bond version sister, squalane cannot) that might be useful for dry skin types, but on the con side, oxidized squalene (called squalene peroxide) is thought to be a strong acne-trigger, that makes squalene less ideal for acne-prone skin.

Having double bonds, and being prone to oxidation also means that squalene is a less stable molecule with shorter shelf life, so its more stable and awesome sister, squalane shows up more often on ingredient lists. Read about squalane here >>

Beta-Sitosterol
What-it-does: emulsion stabilising
