So, how do natural oils fit into your daily beauty regimen anyway? Oils provide moisture and health to the skin and hair. We recommend redheads invest in oils because they moisturize the skin and hair in a natural, organic way. Oils have proven to cure acne, and give unbelievable shine to hair.

Plus, if you have sensitive skin (like most redheads do), oils are usually organic — check your labels — and won’t cause irritation.

Do you have oily skin? Did you know (sometimes) the skin is extra oily because it wants oil? Many find when they begin using oils, their skin becomes less oily.

The mind is blown, right?

Before you begin your purchases, it’s important to do your research on what you would like best.

All of the Leven Rose oils are cold pressed, a process that extracts oil without heat and keeps nutritional benefits intact. Nothing is added or taken away. You’re receiving pure, natural, and organic oil, so you can apply as little or as much as you want.
