1. Oil cannot moisturize your skin.
Moisturizing with an oil is like sitting under a roof while it’s raining and expecting to get wet: it will not happen.
The product which is actually moisturizes the skin is a lotion. Why? It has at least three major umbrella ingredients: humectants, occlusives, and emollients.
- Humectants are ingredients that draw water into skin to hydrate the cells. The most popular and effective humectants are glycerin and hyaluronic acid.
- Emollients are ingredients which soften the skin (oils).
- Occlusive ingredients (some oils and waxes), on the other hand, trap humectants and emollients onto your skin, so the epidermis can stay hydrated and soft throughout the day.
The important fact: oils can function as an occlusive and as an emollient, but never as a humectant.
2. Oils are to finish the skincare ritual.
Oil is the final step of the skin-care routine. If you apply oil first, any moisturizer that follows won’t be able to fully penetrate the oil barrier; it’s like applying lotion over a wet suit.
3. Oils are rich with powerful antioxidants and not only.
Oils are naturally rich with vitamins that repair and protect (especially concentrated in vitamins A and E, which work to smooth fine lines and soften skin).
4. There are some oils that restore the skin with particular conditions.
Plenty of scientific studies prove that tea tree oil, for instance, has antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, which in turn, kill acne bacteria and reduce the size of pimples.
Tamanu oil possesses the potent healing properties for the conditions such as eczema or/and rosacea.

5. Oils work great to remove make up and clean your skin.
The cleansing oil effectively dissolves the make up and skin sebum that stuck in the pores and allows all of the impurities to be easily removed. At the same time, it provides the necessary lubrication to the epidermis, which protects it from over-compensation of oil production.

Due to the extreme sensitivity, often its very hard to find a good product for the skin with conditions such as rosacea, eczema, or psoriasis.
🍃 Our new product, Recovery Facial Concentrate with Polynesian Tamanu and Siberian Sea Buckthorn Berry Oils, was designed specifically to address these problems.
100% natural. No essential/fragrance oils. Preservative free.
Tamanu Oil (base of this formula) has a solid scientific background proving its fantastic efficacy for reducing irritation, redness, and speed up healing. Due to the high levels of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids such as oleic, linoleic, stearic and palmitic acids, its recommended for those struggling with skin irritation&inflammation, blemishes, premature aging, and infections.
Working synergically with other natural oils in this formula such as Argan Oil, Jojoba Oil, Sea Buckthorn Berry Oil and others, it exceptionally heal, regenerate, detoxify, and balance skin.

Please, note that Tamanu oil naturally brings an earthy nutty aroma to the product as well as green colour.

Often we are asked about if Luksha Cosmetics test their products on animals. Thus, we decided to share some useful information with you, which you probably don`t know.
In fact, nowadays, the claim "cruelty free" is more marketing tool rather than actual claim. Why?
Because, the cosmetic companies don`t test their products on animal for a very very long time (including the raw material, which are also not tested on animals nowadays). Consequently, no need to say that Luksha does not test their products on animals, because it surely doesn`t.
Moreover, we believe, that even the implication that some products are "cruelty-free" is misleading, as the animal testing was banned for decades in almost all countries!
Countries such as Canada, EU, India, Israel, New Zealand, Turkey, the UK, Norway, Brazil, Australia, Taiwan, South Korea have already banned cosmetic products with animal testing.
Other countries such as some Asian countries, Argentina, Columbia, Russia, and US have bills to ban underway or don`t require animal testing.
A little background of this matter. To understand how this stigma appeared lets look at the history.
Back in the 50-60s a lot of new chemicals were introduced to the market and it was very important to regulate them and make sure that they are safe for use in cosmetics. The best way to test these chemicals at that time was animal testing (and you will be surprised to know that many of our familia products were ones tested on animals, such as essential oils or some botanical extracts, for instance).
🚩🔬 However, during the decades the cosmetic industry don`t use animal testing any more, they developed alternative, more reliable methods to test their products such as in vitro testing.
In vitro testing demonstrate huge advantages vs animal testing.
- Its is more reliable
- More reproductive and
- Much more cost effective!
Thus, even suggesting that some cosmetic products available in EU, Canadian or other countries mentioned above might be tested on animals is wrong and misleading.

These sorts of oils might be obtained from the same plant; however, the method of production is completely different.
🌹 Rose Otto Oil is produced by Hydro Distillation. Rose petals (in our case from the Rosa Damascena plant) are placed in a container with pure water then slowly heated. The warm water allows the flowers to release their essential oil. The steam and essential oil pass through a cooling process and finally to a container where the oils float on the surface. The essential oil is collected and sold as Rose Otto. Rose Otto is solid in room temperature. It has a classic rose scent - deep, rich and inviting.
🌹 Rose Absolute Oil is produced by Solvent Extraction, which happens in three stages. First, the rose petals are placed in a drum with an organic solvent, usually hexane or toluene, and rotated. This draws out the aromatic portion of the petals. When the hexane has evaporated, what remains is a thick, waxy substance called a concrete (not used by aromatherapists). Next, the waxes and non-aromatic components are filtered out of the concrete with ethanol alcohol, leaving behind an aromatic liquid called Rose Absolute. Solvent extraction gives a greater yield than distillation which is why Rose Absolute tends to be less expensive than Rose Otto. The colour of Rose absolute tends to be a dark orange to red with an intense, pungent rose aroma.

Hyaluronic acid is one of the most powerful humectants known. In fact, one gram of hyaluronic acid holds about 1000 ml of water! It is a natural molecule of sugar (polysaccharides) that occurs naturally in the skin and connective tissue structures.
As we age, skin moisture can significantly drop, which causes the appearance of signs of aging such as notable loss of elasticity (sagging skin) and wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid, with its unique ability to hold moisture, plays a critical role in skin health, plumping your facial features for a more supple, youthful complexion.
