When looking into skincare products we often gravitate towards cleansers and moisturisers, as we know what they do and they are easy to understand.
The world of serums and facial oils often confuse people as there are so many variants and their benefits often sound the same.
Deciding which serums or oils are best for your skin type can be overwhelming and confusing.
To simplify your choice, we have developed two very simple yet highly effective products:
The Bare Roots Omega Oil and the Bare Roots Curative Serum.
Many skincare fanatics buy Omega Oil in Australia as it is known for replenishing dry and problematic skin conditions including acne, eczema and rosacea.
Both the Omega Oil and Curative Serum help to protect your skin against environmental barriers such as stress, pollutants, UV and replenish your skin with essential Vitamins and Minerals.
However, these incredible products both have different purposes and benefits.
Curative Serum
The Bare Roots Curative Serum rejuvenates the skin, and promotes a healthy cell cycle as it is rich in essential vitamins including Mothbean extract which has vitamin A like properties.

Gotu Kola aka the ‘miracle elixir of life’ promotes healing, stimulates healthy cell growth and strengthens the skin by promoting microcirculation and oxygen.
Davidsons Plum contains potent phenolic acid properties that protect your skin from environmental pollution and intensify the benefits of Vitamin C allowing it to remain active for longer.
Ceramide: Is a bio identical lipid that acts as a building block for your skins natural barrier - often one of the first places to become compromised if damaged or neglected

How our Bare Roots Curative Serum nourishes your skin…
Often referred to as a hybrid serum as it contains both water soluble actives and oil soluble actives. This well rounded approach yields the best possible result when it comes to long term hydration. A blend of selected plant oils and ceramides work to condition the skin for a longer period of time whilst premium humectants help to draw in water into the deeper skin layers.
Omega Oil
The Bare Roots Omega Oil replenishes and maintains healthy levels of essential fatty acids in your skin for optimal barrier protection and function.

Buy Omega Oil if you suffer from dry, irritated skin that requires deep nourishing, without clogging your pores. Omega Oil is rich in essential fatty acids, perfect for healing and relieving skin conditions such as rosacea, acne, dermatitis and eczema.
Why we developed the Omega Oil...
As a Dermal Therapist it had become clear that a lipid dry skin type was the most common skin type. Even those who produce some oil were only producing small amounts throughout the centre panel of their face. The skin requires oil to maintain balance and healthy function - our external layer is literally built up of natural fats/waxes. It is what gives us our waterproofing capabilities and protection from external irritants so it is integral to maintain it.
Omega Oil was developed to address the lipid deficiencies we see as Therapists, but also to combat inflammation from multiple plant sources that have been used for centuries to soothe & heal irritation. As a result the skin feels soft, conditioned and healthy.
Should I use a Serum and an Oil in my skincare?
Yes, because they both play a unique role. Serums are generally made up of mostly water soluble actives and carry a greater level of potency. The Curative Serum is designed to work deeper within the skin whilst the Omega Oil works superficially to condition, supplement & protect our outer layer.
