Green Leaves & Co. was the first product I tried from Earthwise Beauty. I was amazed by its efficacy, as it's antibacterial properties happened to help me over night! Now, how many products can you say shocked you by how well they worked over night!? I would say this is one out of four for me. This facial oil is made for acne prone, sensitive, oily, post acne, combination, and reddened skin types. Now, I have dry skin, but I tend to get the occasional breakout. When my skin is feeling clustered and upset, my body is calling for this facial oil. I swear I can smell this oil when I awake, and when I look in the mirror I realize I have breakouts that need extinguished. Talk about my body being intuitive? May sound a little weird, but 100% true. By the way, the scent of this oil is outstandingly SENSATIONAL. I tend to find myself sniffing this every time I open my refrigerator, as that's where I keep it stored. Amazing at reducing acne, plant love & messages, and aromatherapy all in one. You can really smell the rosemary and thyme in the oil, which reminds me of cooking in my kitchen with the fresh air blowing in. Rosemary and thyme are two of the most used herbs in my kitchen. We don't mess around. Then there's the background scent of lavender which is from the high altitudes of Provence. Provence happens to be my dream place of where I will live when I am older. So, needless to say, I have an extreme connection with this oil. The fact that it is potent and really works, is an added bonus ;) Green Leaves sinks in and leaves your skin feeling plump, renewed, and straight up refreshed! The texture of this oil leaves your skin feeling like satin/velvet. I swear Ava creates the most luxurious, multi-layered oils. I feel like there is so much depth within her products, which is something I have never felt before in any other brand. If you don't want to use this as an all over facial oil, you can also use it as a spot treatment. The oil stays solid in cooler weather as seen in the photo below. When in warmer weather it is a true oil. This beautiful oil is filled with potent plants/herbs that are amazing for healing acne. The base of the oil contains jojoba and coconut oil, both of which have many amazing benefits for the skin. The thyme oil helps to fight acne and even prevent it as well. One of my other favorite acne treatments contains thyme, and I can attest to how amazing this herb is at fighting acne. The rosemary oil in Green Leaves helps to stimulate cell renewal, while also having anti-bacterial properties. Violet leaf aids in inflammation, reducing acne, while also having anti-aging benefits. The Clementine Leaf oil also helps to keep acne at bay, while also controlling excessive oil. Holy basil is one of the most amazing adaptogenic herbs. As for its oil, it is antibacterial, antibiotic, and antifungal. Just as the clementine oil, holy basil also works to regulate oil.
All in all, this oil is AMAZING. Perfect texture, B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L scent, and potent acne fighting ingredients. If you want to try Earthwise Beauty, which I highly recommend of course, I have a 15% off code which is 'GreenQueen'! Ava is so kind to be able to offer this to everyone. Thank you for reading!
