Our Brightening Oil is a potent antioxidant that aids in visibly improving the skin's tone and texture. This oil is based on Vitamin C and helps protect the skin from harmful ultraviolet rays if used together with a broad-spectrum sunscreen. It also promotes smoothening the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and stimulates collagen production, enhancing the skin's overall look.
Fermented sake, which Geishas have used as part of their skincare routine, is a crucial ingredient in this oil, combined with citrus extracts to help improve skin elasticity, hydration, hyperpigmentation, firmness, and cell turnover, delaying visible signs of aging. These ingredients also aid in brightening the skin, leaving it looking youthful and radiant.

KEY INGREDIENTS & BENEFITS

Vitamin C
Tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate (THD) is a highly stable form of vitamin C that is known to preserve skin collagen and neutralize free radicals that may damage our skin's lipids. Vitamin C is also beneficial for improving our skin's tone, brightness, and elasticity.

THD can also boost collagen production, which is essential for maintaining the skin's firmness and elasticity. Collagen is a protein that naturally occurs in the body and provides structure to the skin, but its production decreases with age. By increasing collagen production, THD can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, keeping the skin looking youthful.

Apart from its antioxidant properties, THD also possesses anti-inflammatory properties, which can help soothe irritated skin and reduce redness, making it an ideal ingredient for those with sensitive skin or skin that is prone to breakouts.


Sake Extract
Sake, a popular Japanese beverage, is not only consumed for its taste but also used for its beauty benefits. Sake makers are known for having soft hands, while Japanese geishas are known for their soft, flawless skin, both attributed to the use of sake.

For centuries, Japanese geishas have used it as a beauty regimen by applying it to their faces before putting on makeup. Sake contains kojic acid, an antioxidant that brightens the skin by inhibiting melanin production. It can help correct discoloration, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, age spots, acne scars, and skin texture.

The high concentration of amino acids and saccharides helps to smoothen uneven skin texture, maintain elasticity, and replenish the skin with nutrients. In addition, sake contains alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), which are well-known in the skincare world for their use in chemical peels and other exfoliating products. AHAs unclog blocked pores, minimize fine lines, and reduce the appearance of enlarged pores. Although they help shed dead skin cells, AHAs are suitable for normal and dry skin types due to their moisturizing properties and their ability to stimulate collagen production.

Sake is also naturally rich in vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, which makes it suitable for smoothing, softening, and protecting the skin. Japan's toji, or head brewers, have been renowned for their soft hands, and this is due to the high levels of naturally created amino acids in sake, which are aimed at moisturizing and protecting the skin without causing any irritation.


Grapefruit Extract
Grapefruit is a natural ingredient that has been used for toning and improving the texture of oily and acne-prone skin. It contains Lycopene, which reduces inflammation and redness of the skin.

Grapefruit extract helps to even out the skin tone for a smoother complexion, making it a key ingredient for radiant and glowing skin. Grapefruit is also rich in Beta-carotene, an antioxidant that transforms dull and dehydrated skin into radiant skin.

Packed with Vitamins, particularly Vitamin A, Grapefruit has remarkable anti-aging properties. Vitamin A enhances collagen production, reduces wrinkles, and fine lines, and softens the skin. Grapefruit extract also has antibacterial and antiseptic properties that work to cleanse the skin and clear clogged pores, promoting a smoother and brighter skin radiance. It's a natural source of Salicylic acid, which deeply cleanses pores, heals breakouts, and improves skin texture and appearance.

Citrusy grapefruit has an uplifting scent, mood-lifting properties, and is an amazing ingredient in skincare for overall well-being of your skin.


Coenzyme Q10
As we age, our skin loses its elasticity, leading to the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and a dull complexion. CoQ10, also known as Coenzyme Q10, is an antioxidant that plays a crucial role in maintaining skin elastin levels. However, just like collagen, CoQ10 levels in the body decrease as we age, making our skin more prone to visible signs of aging.

Incorporating CoQ10 into your skincare routine can help counteract these effects. CoQ10 is known to energize cells and eliminate free radicals, making it a powerful rejuvenating agent for the skin. Studies have shown that applying topical CoQ10 or taking it in supplement form can improve skin texture, smoothness, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. It can also provide a quick response to any skin irritation, dry patches or redness.

Furthermore, CoQ10 can protect the skin from environmental damage, making it an excellent addition to any skincare regimen.


Yuzu Extract
Yuzu is a fruit that contains several beneficial elements for skin health due to its high vitamin content. It is rich in vitamin C, which is known for its antioxidant effects and for promoting collagen formation. Collagen is essential for maintaining skin firmness and suppleness.

Yuzu also contains flavonoids and phenolic chemicals that act as antioxidants, protecting the skin from oxidative stress caused by free radicals. This can potentially slow down the aging process. Yuzu fruit's high water content and probable humectant effects make it a mild hydrating agent.

Additionally, it contains several plant-based chemicals, or phytonutrients, that may provide extra skin health benefits. Some of these phytonutrients may have anti-inflammatory properties that can help soothe the skin.

HOW TO USE

Ideally used after cleansing and applying toner/softener during the day. Dispense 6-10 drops of the oil onto your palm. Rub your palms together to warm it up, then gently dab on face or massage it into your face and neck in an upward motion until absorbed.

For evening, end with our RESTORATIVE FACE OIL for overnight regeneration.

    I am fortunate to be an early user of the Amanari line of products. I have been using the serum, face cream including both the Restorative and Brightening Face Oils.
    Firstly, I am in my mid-50's and try to keep my skincare routine simple with a focus on clean products. After more than a year of daily & nightly use, my skin has improved dramatically in texture, including reducing most visible signs of aging. My skin is also no longer dry during the Canadian winter months and feels consistently hydrated.
    The scent of the oils is heavenly. Both blend seamlessly into my skin (silky with no sticky residue). the hydration boost is unlike anything I have previously used and I receive compliments on my glowy skin from strangers.
    Both the Vitamin C and Restorative oils have delivered amazing results! I am a lifelong fan of the Amanari line and cannot recommend it enough!

    "I've been using this amazing oil for a year. My skin is so smooth. I apply it every evening before going to bed. People ask me how I stay so young looking. This is my secret. Best ever, so pure. Xoxo"
  • JANET W.

    I have used Amanaris Brightening Face Oil and Restorative Face Oil for 3 consecutive months. The Brightening Face Oil has become my favorite face oil of all time.  This oil is light enough to use in the summer days. It is not sticky and gives a dewy finish. I also love its citrusy, zesty scent. I really look forward to this last step in my morning skincare routine.
    And the sake component in this oil! I absolutely notice a brightening effect after a few weeks of use. Watch out SKII! As someone dealing with melasma, I appreciate and love that bakuchiol is a key ingredient in the Restorative Face Oil  The scent is calming and slightly woodsy. A sumptuous texture.
    I also received some samples of their other products. The entire line has such uplifting scents concocted in the most elegant fashion. Clearly, the creator behind this line has a talented nose. I look forward to trying more products from this line in the future.

    "LOVE LOVE LOVE Amanari Restorative Face Oil!!! It has been part of my nightly beauty routine for over a year. Friends (and strangers) often remark that I look 10 years younger than my age.
    Amanari smells and feels delicious. Three small dabs envelop my face in a soothing and refreshing oil that is light and plumping.
    This is one of the best face products I've used in my 70 years. Give yourself the gift of Amanari!!
  • SANDRA L.

    Since I've been using AMANARI, my skin has never felt or looked better! It is hydrating and non greasy. Makeup is easily applied for a flawless look. My skin gets compliments all the time, and I attribute it to my use of AMANARI!
