Dry skin on lips and around eyes. The only thing I have found which helps and doesn’t sting. Amazing product.
I bought this as a gift for my daughter. A recent breakout of perioral dermatitis left us frustrated and at a loss. Nothing was working and a recent trip to a dermatologist prescribed topical steroid which we have been unable to get. Much research and I found your oil recommended on TikTok. So nearly two weeks in and the improvement is remarkable. It’s been our little miracle in a bottle and we can’t thank you enough.
I've suffered with eczema all my life, recently it took a turn for the worse (menopause and lockdown being factors). Back in February, I decided to go cold turkey on the steroid cream. This was a really bad idea as I went into severe TSW. After 10 weeks of suffering, itchiness and pain, I caved and I re-introduced the steroids and am now trying to wean myself off them. However, the TSW has changed the consistency of my skin and I'm suffering more on my face now than I ever did. This is the only stuff that keeps it under control and in check. I'm on my 3rd bottle and panic as the bottle comes to an end. I know everyone is different, and different things work for different people, but this has been a life saver for me. I'm not clear, but it keeps it bearable.
After wasting time & money on many other products, which just made my sixty year old face worsen I tried this No 1 illuminate face oil. I have sensitive skin which became prone to perioral dermatitis a year or so ago, and can only use water to wash my face. It seems the slightest bit of anything else on my skin, even toothpaste causes a break out. However, this fabulous No 1 illuminate face oil works like a dream, I use it everyday after showering, it soaks in quickly leaving my face feeling soft and moisturized and very importantly no outbreaks or reactions to my skin. It feels like a miracle. Am just about to order more. Thank you.
I was genuinely so excited when I found this product and saw the glowing reviews, and in the first couple of weeks I thought it was going to be my saviour, but unfortunately my skin flared up again recently and this just didn’t do anything to help.
Love the simplicity & multi use of the illuminate oil. I’m prone to sensitive skin & this oil doesn’t irritate at all but is calming. I’m in my sixties & it really gives my skin a healthy glow. I use it as a cleanser including eye make up & a daily & nightly moisturiser. Brilliant
I bought my mini ritual as a present after using the products myself with great results. The bag is gorgeous and a great way to introduce someone to the amazing skin care. Also going to have to treat myself to one as great for holidays..
I’m now ordering my third bottle. This oil really helps to keep my facial eczema under control. I combine a few drops with a smidge of moisturiser (I find this helps to spread it more easily over my face) twice a day and my flare ups have gone. It’s like magic.
I love it! Tried it as a face cleanser but I found it used too much. But as a moisturiser it is fantastic! I get asked what I use on my skin, which is fantastic especially from skin professionals. The only thing is that the pipette doesn't reach the bottom of the bottle, so I have to wait and pour into the next bottle, which is a little annoying. Otherwise I love it!
We're thrilled to hear that you love it as a moisturiser! Thank you your feedback about the pipette not reaching the bottom of the bottle and we will definitely take note of this for future improvements. As for using it as a face cleanser, we suggest adding drops directly to your fingertips and massaging it into your skin before wiping it off with a damp pad. This way, it should last longer and give you a beautiful cleanse. We're happy to hear that even skin professionals have noticed the difference in your skin.
Just what I was looking for! An exfoliating scrub which leave skin feeling nourished as well as deep cleansed.
I have tried multiple approaches to getting my sensitive skin back to health after a long-lasting eczema flare up last Christmas. I had honestly started to lose hope that my face would ever be free from redness, itching and flaking - nothing felt comfortable except for plain jojoba oil, but I held out for something that could help with my skin’s texture as well as comfort. I tried the Aromatherapy and Me Ritual Edit on the basis of the customer reviews for caching the products, and the ethos of the company, and I genuinely can’t believe how quickly my complexion has settled! My skin feels relaxed and incredibly smooth after just one week, and I have also rediscovered the joy of a cleansing and moisturising ritual at the start and close of each day. I’m so grateful to have found this brand, and very appreciative of the reviews that prompted he to try it out!
I have had lots of problems with eczema around my eyes and this miracle bottle is the best. I havectried so many different products but this face oil both soothes and heals. Also using the thick balm for extra protection.
I have very sensitive skin which is very dry anf can get hit and red . These serums from aporhecary have been a life saver for me. When i have a break out i apply these and they instantly soothe and moisture .
I've recently been introduced to illuminate no.1. It has and continues to make my skin look more hydrated and even looks smoother. My friend who told me about it has also really benefited from the oil. Her skin was really dry from medical treatment...she looks a picture of health. I definitely recommend this oil. Anita, you have a wonderful oil.... and Thankyou for your quick response after I got in touch 🙏♥️
Within 10 days used it had completely cleared up by perioral dermatitis that I have suffered with for months and nothing the doctors could give me was tackling it at all!
I like that is has no scent too
I started using the facial oil in February-March in a desperate attempt to try anything to solve sore, red patches of Eczema around my eyes. My GP had prescribed the usual steroid creams and I'm still waiting to get an appointment with a dermatologist. I'd tried all sorts of creams, ointments, moisturisers and nothing was working. In fact they made it worse. I think all of my skin problems are due to perimenopause.
At first, the Illuminate facial oil didn't help but after persevering for a few months, the oil has worked wonders and my skin feels so soft. A stubborn patch of dry skin has reappeared around my one eye but its nothing like how awful it looked before. I think the real test will be when its winter, the weather is bad and the central heating is on. This definitely dries my skin out. However, for the time being, I'm a very happy customer. I feel much more confident about my appearance and I'll continue to use this oil as my skin looks so much better. Thank you!
These products are great andare the perfect size for easy traveling. The pouch is gorgeous too!
This oil is fantastic. It has soothed the skin around my eyes and saved me from a lot of pain and discomfort. I never want to run out!
I’ve been using Illuminating Oil for about a year now as I had perioral dermatitis all round my mouth (by the end of the day my skin was shedding like the skin of a snake and no moisturiser was helping) and chin and also flaky skin at the inner ends of my eyebrows. Illuminating Oil has got rid of both!!
Absolutely love this oil. Having extremely sensitive skin and spending most of my life outdoors I have always struggled to keep my skin feeling soft . This is brilliant.
I had oily, acne skin in college, then it turned to combination skin, then very sensitive skin. I would never put oil on my face. Well, let me tell you, my skin is so sensitive that I get red
itchy blotches....this duo is like putting a fire out. The oil ISN'T oily if you can believe that. 1 drop is good for my entire face and my skin drinks it like water! Thank you Apothocary And Me!!👍
