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

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. Why is this called a sunburn oil — what does it actually do?
The Lavender Sunburn Face & Body Oil is an overnight recovery oil for skin that's been exposed to too much sun — skin that feels tight, hot, tender or in need of genuine nourishment. Pure Australian lavender essential oil, apricot kernel oil and vitamin E work together overnight to soothe, nourish and support your skin's natural recovery. Apply before bed and let the botanicals do their quiet work while you sleep.

Q2. Can I use it straight after sun exposure?
You can apply it whenever your skin needs it — but use while indoors only. Lavender essential oil increases photosensitivity, which means it's not suitable for use before going outdoors or sun exposure. This is an overnight and indoor oil. Apply before bed or when you are staying inside.

Q3. Why does lavender increase photosensitivity?
Certain botanical essential oils — lavender included — contain compounds that can increase the skin's sensitivity to UV light. This means that applying the oil before sun exposure could potentially increase the risk of UV-related skin reactions. This is why the Lavender Sunburn Face & Body Oil is specifically formulated and labelled as an indoor and overnight oil. Applied correctly — before bed, while indoors — it is safe and genuinely effective.

Q4. Why Australian lavender specifically?
Provenance matters with essential oils. The climate, soil and growing conditions in which lavender is cultivated directly affect the potency and aromatic complexity of the oil extracted from it. Australian lavender produces an oil of exceptional quality, with a purity and depth that reflects its origin. It's the same principle behind why certain wines, olive oils and botanicals carry regional attribution — the place shapes the product.

Q5. Is it suitable for the face as well as the body?
Yes — the name says face and body, and it means both. Apply gently to sunburnt or sun-stressed skin on the face, neck or body before bed. Be careful applying near the eyes. Use while indoors only.

Q6. How do I apply it?
Apply to sunburnt or sun-stressed skin before bed. A small amount goes a long way — warm a few drops between your palms and gently massage into the affected areas. Be careful near the eyes. Use while indoors only.

Q7. What does it smell like?
Lavender. Pure Australian lavender essential oil — clean, calm and genuinely beautiful. There is no synthetic fragrance in this product. What you smell is exactly what's in it.

Q8. Is it vegan?
Yes — fully vegan. The Lavender Sunburn Face & Body Oil contains no animal-derived ingredients. It is also PETA-certified cruelty-free and B Corp certified.

Q9. How long does a 100mL bottle last?
With regular use on the body, a 100mL bottle typically lasts one to two months. A little goes a long way — a few drops cover a large area of skin effectively.

Q10. Where is it made?
Handmade in small batches in Noosa, Queensland, Australia. Each batch is made fresh to ensure the potency and freshness of the botanical ingredients.

Q11. Are there any synthetic fragrances or parabens?
None. The Lavender Sunburn Face & Body Oil is free from synthetic fragrances, parabens and SLS. The only scent in this product is pure Australian lavender essential oil.
