HOW TO USE IT

Skin Care

Thistle Oil helps to soften the skin.

As an effective moisturiser, it maintains hydration levels in the skin thus reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Thistle Oil can improve the appearance and texture of the skin.

Thistle Oil is an excellent choice to use on acne prone skin. It is non comedogenic meaning that it does not block the pores.

In massage blends, it is a good idea to add it for every massage as it is so functional but combine it with other oils to give greater slip and glide.

Hair Care

Thistle Oil contains high levels of Omega 6 which is good for moisturising the hair and scalp.

A few drops of the oil can be rubbed between the palms and scrunched into dry hair or massaged into wet hair to stimulate the roots and hair follicles.
