Happy Customers

After another mystery eczema outbreak on my face my usual moisturiser just didn’t help. This oil and the cleansing pads have made my skin feel so much better. Soft, moisturised, calm and smooth. Thank you x

My husband had a nasty eczema outbreak recently and I happened to see one of your ads on Instagram. The little parcel arrived very quickly and my husband actually used your oil. Which was great because I think it really helped him. Sorry no photos but the huge red patches have vanished from his face and neck.

Thank you so much for such a wonderful face oil, my skin feels quenched and looks bright x

Game changer. Wasn’t expecting it to work but the eczema and rosacea on my face is controlled by this oil. So glad I bought it, couldn’t be without it now.

I've been using illuminate face oil for over a year now and I love it! I haven't got sensitive skin but it's still works wonder for me. I'm 57 and I feel that this oil gives me the daily hydration that my skin needs, and also that there is no nasty chemicals, inside, all super natural which is super important for me. I definitely recommend it!

I held off reviewing until I knew this product worked for me, I just ordered my second bottle so I know it's right. I struggle with consistency in skincare due to sensory issues of water on my face and mental burnout that can leave me barely able to function. My skin has been suffering and is naturally dry with rosacea. I love this product as I don't need to wet my face and I have managed to cleanse almost every day using a damp bamboo pad. It doesn't quite remove my waterproof mascara but gets all other makeup off. I have been using it as a moisturiser too as it absorbs quickly and doesn't leave an oily residue. My skin is much more balanced and doesn't feel tight in the mornings, if I miss a day of cleanse/moisturise my skin is still balanced. Most excitingly, the rosacea pustules on my nose have gone from a daily occurrence to maybe once per fortnight, this is a huge improvement. I hope with further consistent use my redness may reduce but I am happy with the results and will keep using as my go to skincare product.

I have to say firstly, I cannot express my gratitude for this face oil! I had perioroal dermatitis in my 20s and this has recently resurfaced at 51 (peri-menopausal). I had been using prescription medication for the redness and spots, but the accompanying dryness was a real problem and I spent a lot of money on barrier repair creams, with no discernible benefit. I went on holiday aimed with a plethora of products and decided to wean off the medication as the spots were easing somewhat, but my skin (around my upper chin area) was literally peeling off in dry, flaky sheets - maybe as a consequence of the medication. I hadn't used the Illuminate face oil as a treatment up until this point, only as a cleanser (which again is fantastic), but I slathered it on in desperation and I have to say, after having peeled off the offending dead skin, this repaired the new skin underneath within 3 days! I couldn't believe a product with such few ingredients could be so powerful, but maybe that is in fact, the key! I have used it religiously since then, morning and night and my skin is pimple free and replenished. I will not be without this miracle oil now! It has literally saved my skin. I used it on holiday underneath my mineral SPF and in line with sensible sun exposure, they seemed to complement each other beautifully and I did not burn (I usually do) - I look healthy and not sun fried. This is a phenomenal all round skin treat and I thank you most sincerely.

I really wish I had found this product years ago, it has worked wonders for my eyes and face. I have reactive eczema and suffer often with red, sore and then dry flakey skin around my eyes, eyelids and lips. Since using this oil my skin is clear most of the time, flares up are much less and I quickly recover. I have used this oil for 2 months now and will not stop. Thank you so much for creating a product that works so well for eczema sufferers.

I have had sensitive skin that reacts to everything since childhood so finding clean skin care products that don't anger my face is a must. So when a product works well that is a relief, AND this face oil not only does one job well, but it does all great! Thank you! It's a saviour.

This is my second purchase of this amazing oil. It has totally transformed my skin.
I was suffering from eczema on my eyelids and felt so self conscious I didn’t want to go out. After trying several other creams and nothing working, I decided to give this a try. It is a joy to use, leaves my skin feeling plump, hydrated and glowing. My eczema has reduced significantly and now I leave the house with confidence. I will definitely stick with this from now on as my daily moisturiser. I use it alongside the glow scrub oil which is also fantastic. It’s just a game changer. So glad I found this fantastic brand.

I've recently had a whole load of skin patch testing done and it turns out I have allergies to some natural fragrance compounds. Customer service was great, helping me to decide if this product should be safe for me. So far, so good, although I've only just started using it on my face. I've been testing twice a day on my inside forearm to be safe, and all is clear! Let's see what happens!

I wasn’t sure this oil would live up to the hype but it’s been a game changer. My sensitive, eczema prone skin has been impacted by the perimenopause and I’ve been dealing with rosacea as well since last year. Almost everything I try makes my face feel tight or tingly, and makes the dry patches worse. This oil feels like the gentlest balm I could put on my face - no reaction whatsoever except softness, smoothness and my dry patches are almost gone after 2 weeks. I’ve now bought the glow scrub - again, it’s so gentle unlike other exfoliants which irritate my skin. I’m a convert!

Nice smoothing face /body oil

I have been suffering with eczema on my eyelids and around my lips for a few years and have tried everything under the sun but to no avail. I then came across your illuminate face oil a few weeks ago and decided to give it a try. Well after nearly two weeks of using this amazing oil my dry flaky eyelids and lips are smooth and feel hydrated. I also purchased the illuminate face scrub which is also amazing. I am now looking to change my body care products to your bath oils and body scrubs so the rest of my skin can feel the benefits. Thank you Apothecary and Me, you truly have been my skin saviour.

I bought this for my adult son facial eczema and decided to also use it to remove my make up and to moisturise (as I have rosacea and problems with acne since the menopause). It's a lovely light oil and I love it with a damp pad to remove makeup. It is easy to dispense the correct amount of drops and it's unscented. My son hasn't used it consistently yet to comment, but it has completely calmed my skin and I barely have a blemish now. For that reason alone Im ditching my previous expensive skin care and simplifying by just using this oil.

I have been struggling with problems with the skin round my eyes and eye lids for months and waiting for a dermatology appointment. From the very first time I used this I had instant relief - I’ve now been using for almost 2 weeks and although it hasn’t solved the problem completely I have about an 80% reduction in irritation and I no longer want to constantly scratch my eyes out . I’m hoping things will continue to improve over the coming weeks.

I kept seeing the adverts for this product which claimed to help the exact skin condition as mine - flaking hairline, eyebrows and eyelids which were sore, dry and irritated. I had to give it a go and it did not disappoint. It took a week for the improvements to really show and now my skin is looking like it used to. I use the oil in conjunction with my usual moisturiser as it seems to bind on a bit better. A good application a bedtime then a lighter touch in the morning after a thorough cleanse is my routine. I'm very happy and it is well worth the investment. Thank you!

Saw this oil being advertised on Instagram and thought I’d give it a try. I’m so glad I did! It’s soothing, calming and really moisturises. I love it

Excellent. I bought this for my son, who has eczema and his skin flared up badly recently after using a coconut based shampoo. The oil seems to have helped and has calmed the skin considerably.

Didn't work for me sadly but giving 4stars for the customer service. The refund policy is smooth no nonsense, so if anyone is worried about it, don't be. Try it. As usual with every skincare it may work or may not but with this there is security of money back if it doesn't

Having hit the menopause, my skin on my face had become very dry, flaky and red.
I was recommended to try Apothcary and me illuminate face oil as it is organic and would not upset my sensitive skin. I have been using the product twice a day for a couple of weeks and have noticed my skin is not as dry and flaky, I will continue to use this product which has helped my skin’s appearance since using.

I never normally write reviews but 2 weeks in and I’m already convinced I’ll be ordering more. Fact that it’s completely unscented as well as multi-purpose is brilliant and a little goes a long way. My skin feels so much better already. Win, win.

I woke up with red,flaky skin Easter Monday and at 76y had never had 'bad skin's. Drs gave steroid cream and antibiotics but it just got worse and sides of face felt scaly and rough and my neck started to be affected. I had used the same facial products for years and had facials etc. Nothing anyone said to do do made any difference and make up just went claggy. I found apothecary illuminate face oil on Facebook and sent for some and it was better in just few days so am sticking with it.

After suffering with itchy dry eyelids flare up my normal go to was no longer working, so I google searched natural products to help. I stumbled across this product and it has been a complete game changer. I now only wash and moisturise my eyes with this alongside my entire face and my itchy dry eyelids have now healed. Thank you so much for creating this lovely oil cleanser/moisturiser. It has even helped my 6 year old son who suffers with itchy eyelids from hay fever, a tiny drop goes along way. x

This is just pure gold, amazing product.
