Carrier Oil Ingredients
every ingredient we use has a purpose!
Our Restore Natural Oil Blend is carefully formulated with carrier oils specifically chosen for their proven ability to address the challenging symptoms of lichen sclerosus. Each oil brings unique healing properties that work synergistically to restore comfort, reduce inflammation, and support your skin's natural healing process.
Olive oil - the foundation of healing
Olive Tree
Why we chose it: Olive oil serves as our primary carrier oil because its chemical composition closely mirrors human skin, allowing for superior absorption rather than sitting on the surface where it cannot provide therapeutic benefit.
Ancient wisdom meets modern science: Hippocrates, the father of medicine, recognized olive oil's healing potential centuries ago. Roman physicians used it extensively for skin conditions, burns, wounds, and infections—conditions that share similarities with lichen sclerosus symptoms.
Targeted benefits for lichen sclerosus:
High vitamin E content provides powerful antioxidant protection against free radical damage that can worsen inflammation
Natural anti-inflammatory properties help calm irritated, sensitive tissue
Accelerates wound healing, crucial for addressing fissures and damaged skin
Promotes collagen production to strengthen fragile skin
Gentle cleansing action removes irritants without causing further damage
The deep penetration and anti-inflammatory action of olive oil make it essential for managing the chronic inflammation and tissue fragility associated with lichen sclerosus.
coconut oil - nature’s antimicrobial protector
Coconut Fruit
he structural makeup of the fatty acids in coconut oil help it to assimilate quickly and completely into the body making it an ideal moisturizer.
The use of coconut oil dates back roughly 4,000 years to regions of Asia, South America, Central America and Polynesia. Early European explorers documented how coconut oil was used in almost every aspect of healing the mind, body and spirit.
What properties does coconut oil have? Coconut oil is believed to have antimicrobial properties helping to kill bacteria, fungal infections and viruses. It is believed to be wound healing and may soothe and support the skin. It is believed to repair dry and damaged skin, support moisture, enhance skin cell growth and boost circulation to the skin.
camellia seed oil - the secret to resilient skin
Camellia Flower
Why we chose it: Used for over 1,000 years in China and Japan for maintaining youthful, resilient skin, camellia seed oil offers the highest concentration of skin-repairing compounds in our blend.
Superior composition: With an even higher oleic acid content than olive oil, plus abundant vitamins and minerals, camellia seed oil delivers exceptional skin rejuvenation and protection.
Targeted benefits for lichen sclerosus:
Exceptional hydrating power addresses the severe dryness that characterizes lichen sclerosus
High antioxidant content fights oxidative stress that can trigger flares
Potent anti-inflammatory properties reduce the chronic inflammation
Anti-irritant qualities soothe hypersensitive tissue
Restores essential lipids to strengthen the skin barrier

The Synergistic Effect

Each oil was selected not just for its individual properties, but for how it enhances the effectiveness of the others, creating a comprehensive healing system for your skin's restoration.
