La Divina Sunrise Healing Elixir

I don't know if it's because I've seen some spectacular sunsets against the mountains here in Ojai, but when I caught a glimpse of La Divina's Sunset Velvet Hydration oil I had to pause for a moment and check it out.  While it's loaded with great ingredients like copaiba*, cacao and frankincense, I instead chose a sample of the Sunrise Healing Elixir for combination skin (pictured above), partly because that's exactly what I have, but also because it contains many of my favorite carrier and essential oils:

Organic seabuckthorn / Organic tamanu / Sesame oil / Frankincense / Lavender / Lemon / Myrrh / Cypress / Sandalwood / Melaleuca / Wild orange / Geranium

The lemon EO, while astringent and good for sebum regulation, is phototoxic so this will be a nighttime application for me. All the ingredients in La Divina facial oils are hand picked from certified organic, wild crafted and trusted sources.  They are chosen for their therapeutic and healing properties as well as their aromatherapeutic qualities. Plus it's cofounded by two California girls, one an aesthetician, who have put a lot of thought and care into the mixtures and the ingredients.

(*An oil typically sourced from the Amazonian rainforest, Copaiba contains the highest amounts of beta caryophyllene (55 percent) of any known essential oil. It's long been used in folk medicine and is high on my wishlist of EOs to play with.  It's known for its anti-inflammatory properties, so I'm eager to see if it impacts my rosacea. It is also reputedly effective for acne reduction.)
