I’m extremely sensitive to chemicals. I only have to smell a strong perfume - no matter how good the quality - and immediately my mood suffers. I can feel quite drained straightaway, not knowing why -until I made the connection between using perfumes and having an altered mood.

Cosmetics have historically been a minefield for me as well. I could rub a cream on my body or on my face and almost immediately experience major cravings for sugar, a sleepy mood or emotional discomfort.

I realised that certain chemical substances used in perfumes and cosmetics can result in inflammation of the brain and alter mood and energy very quickly when applied.

One day, looking at an omega oil my son was taking by mouth to nurture his brain cells and reduce potential inflammation, it occurred to me that perhaps a pure product such as an oil for the brain could also have skin benefits, as well as keeping me safe from chemical dysfunction (or disruption)

I tried it and it was bliss. The quality of my skin improved rapidly when applied to my face and instead of producing inflammation, it flooded me with a sense of well-being as it was soothing to my neurology as well as to my skin.

The only drawback was the smell! It was made from fish or algae. After months of research alongside a biochemist, I focused on Earth Oils. These are more sustainable in the medium long term and have the same qualities as the phytoplankton and schizochytrium algae.

After more in-depth research, I found the Earth Oil I was looking for - Camelina Sativa.

Working with this oil led to the creation The MicroOil based on this oil – a facial oil with camelina sativa at its core, with added antioxidants, Vitamin A, Vitamin E and regenerative skin nutrients which don’t produce brain inflammation etc.

And so NeuroCosmetics™  and NeuroSkinFeeds™ were born.

My skin looks radiant and my expression relaxes as soon as I use The MicroOil, not only because it is extremely nurturing and excellent for the outer skin, but because it’s not aggressive (but friendly and soothing) to my brain, my energy and mood.

I hope you can benefit from it as much as I do, that’s my wish and my ultimate goal.
And it smells gorgeous by the way!
