Product Details

Our light-textured Balancing Face Oil helps to balance and replenish natural oil levels in the skin. Fast-absorbing, this luxurious oil leaves skin feeling hydrated and satiny-smooth.

Formulated with nourishing Kalahari Melon Seed Oil (Mokaté® Oil) and penetrating Squalane, our vegan Balancing Face Oil is rich in fatty acids and contains a potent antioxidant complex that includes the powerhouse duo Vitamin E and Vitamin C, along with reparative Bakuchiol and Coenzyme QlO.

The synergistic effects of these multi-functional essential ingredients help to activate, balance, replenish and harmonize the skin’s natural oil levels, combat free radicals, and moisturize the skin.

READ BEFORE USE

PLEASE READ BEFORE USE

CAUTION: For external use only. For adult use only. Keep out of reach of children. Keep out of eyes. If irritation occurs, discontinue use. Use only as directed.

Before using, first review any product’s ingredients by reading the ingredient listing to see if you have a known allergy or sensitivity to any of the ingredients in the formulation. Do not use any product if allergic to any of the ingredients in the ingredient list or its components. Also, review the usage instructions and only utilize the products as directed. Do not use Retrouvé products on open, wounded, or broken skin.

If you have a question or concern about using a particular ingredient contained in a product or if you have rosacea or other skin hypersensitivity or are pregnant, nursing, or planning a pregnancy or have a medical condition that could make the use of any skin product problematic, you should consult your physician before using the product.

Patch Test Information: If you are generally sensitive to any applied product, we recommend that you perform a patch test at home. An at-home patch test is a valuable, uncomplicated procedure that can inform you if your skin is negatively reactive to an applied topical compound. One does this by applying a dime-sized amount of any new product to the inside of the wrist or elbow area. Leave the product on the test area for 12-24 hours (overnight). Should irritation occur at any time in that area from that product, rinse thoroughly with cool water and do not continue to use.

Always use a broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30+ during daylight hours.

Because our products include natural ingredients, they may vary in scent, color, and consistency from batch to batch; however, should you ever have a question or concern on any product, we encourage you to contact us.

PRODUCT STORAGE: In general, to help protect the integrity of skincare products, they should not be exposed to extremes of hot or cold temperatures. They should be stored in a dry place at a controlled room temperature (20–25° C/ 68–77° F) and away from areas of humidity and direct sunlight. Do not store or leave in a car.

Lab Notes

For our 10th product launch in 10 years, I sought not to just create a new product for newness-sake, but to craft a product that I could not find for myself on the market. As someone who does not like the feel and smell of most face oils, I created an innovative formulation with a naturally fresh scent that was lighter, fast-absorbing, and could be used by most all skin types.
