Lavender Sunburn Face & Body Oil 100mL

The sun has its appeal. The aftermath is another matter.

The Lavender Sunburn Face & Body Oil is the oil you reach for when your skin has had too much — when it feels tight, hot, tender and in need of something genuinely restorative. Pure Australian lavender essential oil. Apricot kernel oil. Vitamin E. Three ingredients, working overnight to soothe, nourish and support your skin's natural recovery.

Apply before bed. Sleep. Wake up to skin that has been quietly, genuinely cared for.

Australian lavender — why provenance matters

Not all lavender is equal. The climate, soil and growing conditions in which lavender is cultivated directly affect the potency and aromatic complexity of the essential oil extracted from it. Australian lavender produces an oil of exceptional quality, with a purity and depth that reflects its origin.

Lavender essential oil has been used in botanical skincare and medicine for centuries. Its anti-inflammatory properties help calm and soothe irritated, sun-stressed skin; its antiseptic qualities support the skin's natural healing process; and its deeply calming scent has well-documented aromatherapeutic benefits — making the act of applying it before bed a genuinely restorative ritual rather than simply a skincare step.

One important note: lavender essential oil increases photosensitivity, which is why the Lavender Sunburn Face & Body Oil is an indoor and overnight oil only. Apply before bed or when you are not planning to go outdoors. Be careful applying near the eyes. This is not a limitation — it is the oil being honest about what it is and how to use it well.

Three ingredients. Every one deliberate.

Apricot kernel oil carries the lavender and vitamin E into the skin. Light, non-greasy and rich in vitamins A and E of its own, it is one of nature's most delicate and skin-compatible carrier oils — absorbing effortlessly without leaving a greasy residue, nourishing deeply without clogging pores.

Vitamin E oil is one of the most well-established antioxidants in natural skincare. It supports the skin's repair process, helps neutralise free radical damage caused by UV exposure, and contributes a further layer of deep nourishment to the overnight recovery formula.

No synthetic fragrance. The lavender scent in this oil is lavender — Australian lavender essential oil, pure and complete.

The overnight ritual

Skincare works hardest at night. Cortisol drops, cellular repair accelerates, and the skin becomes more receptive to botanical nourishment than at any point during the day. Apply gently to sunburnt or sun-stressed skin before bed. Be careful near the eyes. Use while indoors. Let the Australian lavender, vitamin E and apricot kernel oil do their quiet work through the night.

FAQs

Q1. Are the Vanilla Mozi face and body oils organic?
The key botanical ingredients in our face and body oils are organic where noted on each product label and page. All oils are formulated with premium natural and botanical ingredients — free from synthetic fragrances, parabens, SLS and petrochemicals. Full ingredient lists are available on each product page so you can read exactly what's in every bottle.

Q2. Are the oils suitable for sensitive skin? 
Yes. All Vanilla Mozi face and body oils are free from synthetic fragrances, parabens and SLS — formulated to be genuinely gentle on sensitive skin. If you have a known allergy to any specific botanical ingredient, please check the full ingredient list on the relevant product page before use. As with any new product, a patch test is recommended for sensitive skin types or those with known allergies, particularly before applying to children's skin.

Q3. Can I use face oil under makeup?
Yes — the Calendula Morning Face Oil is specifically suited as a pre-makeup base. Apply a few drops and allow to absorb fully before applying makeup, typically two to three minutes. The oil absorbs cleanly and does not leave a greasy base. The Honeysuckle Precious Body Oil and Lavender Sunburn Face & Body Oil are not recommended as pre-makeup bases.

Q4. Where are the oils made?
All Vanilla Mozi face and body oils are handmade in small batches in Noosa, Queensland, Australia. Each batch is made fresh to ensure the potency and freshness of the botanical ingredients.

Q5. How long does a bottle last?
With regular daily use — two to four drops morning or evening — a 25mL face oil typically lasts two to three months. A little goes a long way with high-quality botanical face oils. The 100mL body and sunburn oils, used all over the body, will last approximately one to two months with regular use.

Q6. How do I apply the face oils? 
Apply a few drops to clean fingertips and gently massage into the face, neck and décolletage. The Calendula Morning Face Oil is applied each morning before makeup. The Immortelle & Rose Night Face Oil and Men's Precious Face Oil are applied each night after cleansing.

Q7. What is the Lavender Sunburn Face & Body Oil and when should I use it? 
The Lavender Sunburn Face & Body Oil is a three-ingredient botanical oil designed to nourish and soothe skin after sun exposure, time outdoors, or any day when your skin needs extra care. Apply generously before bed to your face, body, or any area that feels dry, tight or sun-stressed after a day outside. It is an indoors-only product — not suitable for use before or during sun exposure.

Q8. Why is the Lavender Sunburn Face & Body Oil for indoors use only?
The Australian Lavender Essential Oil in this formula increases photosensitivity, which means applying it before sun exposure could make your skin more sensitive to UV light. Always use this oil indoors, in the evening or overnight. It is not a sunscreen and provides no UV protection whatsoever.

Q9. How do I apply the Lavender Sunburn Face & Body Oil?
Warm a few drops between your palms and massage gently into clean skin — face, neck, décolletage, arms, legs or any area that needs nourishment. Apply before bed and allow to absorb overnight. Avoid the immediate eye area. For particularly dry or sun-stressed skin, apply more generously and allow extra time to absorb before sleeping.

Q10. Can I use face oil if I have oily skin? 
Yes. Botanical face oils work with your skin's natural sebum rather than against it — they do not make oily skin oilier. Jojoba oil in particular, present in the Calendula Morning Face Oil, closely mimics the skin's natural sebum and can help balance oil production over time. If you are new to face oils and have oily skin, start with two drops and increase as your skin adjusts.

Q11. Do the oils contain any synthetic fragrance?
No. The scent in every Vanilla Mozi face and body oil comes entirely from the botanical ingredients themselves — the neroli in the Calendula Morning Face Oil, the pure rose and immortelle in the night oil, the honeysuckle in the body oil, the Australian lavender in the sunburn oil, and the basil and tangerine in the Men's Precious Face Oil. No synthetic fragrance is added to any product in the range.

Q12. How should I store the oils?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The oils are packaged in glass bottles which protect the botanical ingredients from light degradation. Use within 12 months of opening.

Q13. Are the oils vegan?
Yes — all Vanilla Mozi face and body oils are fully vegan. They are also PETA-certified cruelty-free and B Corp certified.
