About

This ultra silky, feather light face elixir contains our unique blend of 29 powerful botanical ingredients. It’s comprised of plant based active compounds, oils, extracts, phyto-retinoids and antioxidants which work in harmony to produce a high performance face oil. It repairs, rebalances and rejuvenates the skin to leave it smoother, healthier and naturally glowing, while also offering protection from free radical damage.

Our formulation is designed for use every day, on every skin type. This calming and grounding, with a citrusy warm rose aroma, oil glides on effortlessly, absorbs fully and doesn’t leave residue (meaning it’s perfect for use under makeup and sun protection).

No. 29 is formulated as a pro collagen elixir. This means it promotes cellular renewal, repairs the skin’s lipid matrix and has the potential to minimise the appearance of scarring, fine lines and imperfections. It achieves this thanks to an abundance of plant oils and extracts, including sea buckthorn berry, edelweiss, pomegranate, rosehip, lupin, willow bark and bakuchiol.

Enriched with best performing Bakuchiol, a natural alternative to retinol, Totarol (a rare but incredibly powerful antioxidant derived from the New Zealand native Totara tree), No. 29 gently plumps the skin and promotes collagen production for a more youthful, naturally radiant complexion. This is heightened by the abundance of Omegas 3, 6, 7 and 9 fatty acids and phytosterols, which work to lock in hydration to keep your skin supple for hours after application.

To shield you from the unavoidable exposure to free radicals that comes with our modern lifestyle, we’ve also included our specialised blue light defender, which works with the natural antioxidants in the formula to combat damage from environmental exposure and pollutants.

No.29 is the result of nature and science working together in perfect harmony.

Benefits

Promotes Collagen Production: Our unique formulation supports collagen production to improve the skin’s natural elasticity and tone. It leaves the skin looking and feeling smoother and more plumper, while also aiding in reducing the appearance of fine lines.

Delivers Antioxidants: Powerful anti-ageing antioxidants from Totarol, Blackcurrant Oil, Sea Buckthorn and Pomegranate work to nourish the skin and prevent premature signs of ageing resulting from free radical damage.

Brightens: No.29 contains a blend of botanical actives such as Totarol, Bakuchiol, Lily Oil and Sea Buckthorn Oil, all of which work together to brighten your complexion and reduce pigmentation, giving you a glowing, even-toned skin.

Regenerates and Restores: Our blend of 29 plant extracts, including Bakuchiol, Willow Bark and Hibiscus extracts, promote cellular regeneration to rejuvenate the skin and improve its texture and appearance, leaving it softer, more supple and naturally radiant.

Blue Light Protection: No.29 includes our specialised blue light defender, which is a naturally derived ingredient that offers effective protection against High Energy Visible Light exposure (from sources such as the sun, technology and digital devices). It contains the standardised levels of carotenoids and is a natural source of pro-retinol, meaning it aids in combating premature ageing and damage from pollution.

Ingredients


Key Ingredients

Totarol: A highly prized extract which is sourced sustainably from the heartwood of the NZ native Totara tree. It is an antioxidant powerhouse which helps to combat damage from free radical exposure while also offering protection against future damage.

Bakuchiol: Known as ‘nature’s retinol’, Bakuchiol boasts anti-ageing properties, helping to plump up fine lines and wrinkles while also improving the skin’s natural elasticity. It also reduces the appearance of pigmentation and imperfections for a more youthful complexion. Bakuchiol is a natural and gentle alternative to retinol, even for sensitive skin.

Sea Buckthorn Seed & Berry Extract: A potent ingredient which is safe for all skin types (including sensitive skin), this nutrient dense fruit extract contains Omegas 3, 6, 9 and highly celebrated Omega 7 fatty acids. In addition to reducing inflammation and soothing redness, Omegas contribute to skin repair and cell regeneration for overall skin wellness.

White Lupin: White Lupin Extract supports collagen production to improve skin texture and elasticity, resulting in firmer and more youthful looking skin.

Plum Oil: This non-comedogenic oil is rich in oleic acid, which keeps skin hydrated, promotes cell regeneration and regulates oil production. Plum Oil is also anti-inflammatory and boasts antioxidant properties.

Madonna Lily Flower: Madonna Lily Flower reinforces the skin’s protective barrier, supports cellular turnover and promotes a smoother, more even complexion.

Australian Macadamia Oil: Australian Macadamia Oil is high in natural Squalane, which is a potent source of palmitoleic acid (a fatty acid which is present in the skin and decreases as we age). It contains keratin to reverse visible signs of ageing and it reinforces the skin’s protective barrier. Macadamia Oil is also rich in phytosterols, which reduce inflammation and support sensitive skin.

From our Founder...

"I wanted to create the ultimate nourishing facial oil to provide a comprehensive, luxurious skincare solution that addresses multiple skin concerns simultaneously. Inspired by my own skincare challenges including hormonal acne, I combined the power of 29 botanical actives, including clinically proven ingredients like Bakuchiol, Totarol, and White Lupin, to hydrate, nourish, and rejuvenate the skin. Each oil was researched and chosen for its nutrient and fatty acid profiles; Plum and Edelweiss for their incredible regenerative benefits, brightening Rosehip and Hibiscus , Sea Buckthorn and Pomegranate to improve elasticity.

You won’t want to be without it!”

- Lizzie McPike Pharmacist & Cosmetic Formulator

Skin Hydration

As we age, our skin naturally becomes less efficient at retaining moisture, leading to dryness, fine lines, and a loss of firmness.

Skin hydration is essential for maintaining a healthy and vibrant complexion. It refers to the skin's ability to retain moisture, which is crucial for its elasticity, smoothness, and overall function as a protective barrier.

At D'Scribe, we prioritize hydration in all our formulations. Our products are crafted to promote, maintain, and enhance skin hydration using potent botanical ingredients and advanced formulations. Whether it's our hydrating serum enriched with sea algae and natural humectants or our nourishing face oil packed with vitamins and omega fatty acids, each product is designed to replenish moisture, improve skin texture, and restore radiance.

By focusing on hydration, we aim to support skin health at every age, ensuring that your complexion remains resilient, supple, and beautifully hydrated throughout the years.

Nature's alternative to RETINOL - Bakuchiol

In our No.29 oil elixir we use the only Bakuchiol on the market with clinical data to demonstrate its ability to match, and in certain respects outperform the performance of retinol.

it's been clinically proven to behave in a very similar way to retinol:

  • reduces lines and wrinkles,
  • smoothes out uneven skin tones,
  • firms the skin
  • improve the quality of the skin that has already been photo-damaged.

Our Bakuchiol has been proven to be more effective than salicylic acid and to reduce acne by 58% after just 6 weeks. It's an ally for adults with oily, problematic skin.

However, unlike retinol, it does so without irritating the skin, it can be used both day and night, and is also suitable for sensitive skin.
