Organic Rosehip Face Serum:
The wild berries and fruits in this bottle are infused in organic fair trade jojoba and organic fair-trade argan oil (also known as Moroccan oil). As you crack open a bottle you will smell the essence of the wild forest fruits contained within.
We crafted this new Face Serum with sensitive skin in mind. For years we have been asked to make a facial care product that is gentle yet effective for psoriasis, acne and eczema prone skin – well here it is folks! This product is also vegan, cruelty-free, and gluten-free.
This organic serum contains lightweight oils very similar to our skins own sebum. Our wild Crowberry & Rosehip Face Serum is recommended for both dry and oily skin.
Key ingredients:
Wildcrafted Crowberries (Empretrum nigrum) – Reputed to be the norths wild berry species containing the highest level of antioxidants. This juicy black berry is foraged by Laughing Lichen in late summer and into the early fall. Loaded with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
Wildcrafted Arctic Rose Hips (Rosa Acicularis) – Anti-aging properties, antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, soothing, loaded with mineral and vitamins (especially A & C).
Organic Jojoba – Fairtrade (Simmondsia chinensis) – Is reputed to aid in sebum production, contains antioxidants & anti-inflammatory properties, provides a protective barrier for skin to keep it from loosing moisture, contains antimicrobial and antifungal properties, contains vitamin E, contains wound and scar healing properties, and reduces fine lines and wrinkles.
Organic Argan Oil / Morrocan oil (Argania spinosa) – A healing oil produced from the kernels of the Argan tree which in Morocco is often referred to as the “tree of life”. Argan oil contains high amounts of vitamin E (Tocopherols), carotenes and essential fatty acids to name a few. It is reputed to have both bactericidal and fungicidal properties. Traditionally is was used to treat rheumatism and blemishes among other conditions and is said to sooth inflamed and irritated skin while reducing the appearance of scarring. Argan oil aids in balancing the skins oil production which is great for overactive oily skin or underactive dry skin.
What is an organic face serum?
At Laughing Lichen we follow the Canadian Organic Standards which are defined here: https://inspection.canada.ca/organic-products/standards/eng/1300368619837/1300368673172. Section 7.6 of The Standard is specific to Wild Crops.
Wilderness Manufacturing:
Each batch of this nourishing and rich organic rosehip face serum is crafted in small batches at our remote “off-the-grid” wilderness facility located deep in the Northwest Territories boreal forest. Our entire facility is run using solar energy. This ensures that the air drying of the collected herbs is done in a location far from any pollutants or contaminations. All of our harvesting locations are in pristine virgin forests (old-growth), as here in the Northwest Territories of Canada, there has been very little development or natural resource activity over the years.
Direction Of Use:
To use simply dispense 3-4 drops into the palm of hand and gently massage with finger tips over desired areas avoiding contact with eyes. Let slowly absorb into skin. A touch of the boreal forest in every drop!

Twice weekly: Exfoliate skin with our Wild Herb Face Scrub followed by Rosehip & Herb Face Cream or Crowberry and Rosehip Face Serum.
Warning:
Before using the product to rule out allergies we recommend testing a single drop of the serum on a small, easily hidden patch of skin. This is especially recommended if you have extremely sensitive skin to rule out irritation before applying liberally.

Repairs my very sensitive facial skin. I use it all over my face, neck and problem areas.

Love, love this serum. Again, thank you to my friend in Hay ariver sending it to me on Vancouver Island, and thank you, Laughing Lichen, for making the serum! I have verrry sensitive, aging, sun damaged skin that’s oily even when it’s not triggered by over cleansing or harsh chemicals. This serum sinks in beautifully and doesn’t cause any sort of reaction. Wow! I was a bit heavy handed with it one day when I was in a rush and therefore did pump too much into my hand. Yes, my skin felt too coated after that. But use the correct amount and it’s bliss for even my oily skin. Thank you! I will be ordering more.

This is a favorite serum for the whole family. The teens love that it makes their skin glow without causing breakouts (it’s actually helped with acne) and the adults love the moisture without stickiness or heavy scent. The fact it’s all natural is even better.

I get a flare of contact dermititis on my neck whenever I use most skin products, even those designed for “sensitive” skin. It’s mostly the essential oils used for fragrance, lavender, citrus, and mint being the worst for me and SO popular in skin care. This serum is one of the very few serums I can use on that area with NO irritation. The only other one I’ve had luck with costs twice as much per ounce so I stocked up on this. It makes my skin feel SO soft and clear.

My favorite serum ever! Makes skin feel amazing. Only thing I would say is that the bottle is not totally filled to the top (perhaps there is a reason for this though). For such a long journey, it would be nice to get more product per bottle (with a price adjustment of course) to avoid having to order more frequently. Amazing product though!!

Hi Melanie
We appreciate your feedback! We fill our bottles by hand and do our best to fill them with the correct volume but there is always a chance of an error – we will be sure to keep a close eye on this. If you are unhappy with your order just send us a picture of the affected product as an email to laughinglichenltd@gmail.com and I am happy to offer a refund or credit to any mistakes made by us. We do have to leave some space in each bottle to account for pressure changes or freezing during shipping.

I love this product. I thought it would be oily but it soaks in well. It leaves my face smooth and hydrated. I like that I am using a product with wild ingredients.

Received this serum as a gift few months ago. I have very sensitive skin and everything seems to make it worse. But this serum done wonders for my skin, no irritation, skin feels lovely and soft and supple and gives it a glow. I would highly recommended this serum. I had to order some more for myself and few other bits and received my package yesterday.

This face serum is a must have! You can feel it instantly nourishing your skin, and I have also noticed it helps with signs of aging. I personally love to pair it with their Wild Herb Face Scrub. These two are part of my nightly routine and my skin has never felt so great! I have even had quite a few friends and family comment on how healthy my skin is looking these days. I am hooked!

I have purchased a couple orders of this face oil because my skin loves it so much! My face tends to breakout easily with certain oils, especially if essential oils are part of the ingredients. The ingredients in this oil are seriously soothing for my face, and I sometimes use it on other troubled areas too. It’s currently helping my skin deal with this year’s Canadian winter. I love this oil and would highly recommend it for those with dry or sensitive skin types.

I absolutely LOVE this serum! I have very sensitive skin and this helps keep it clear and supple. It isn’t greasy and goes on so smooth. I am very impressed with this serum and will definitely buy more when needed.
Hannah Jenkins –
This is the best face Serum! I have really sensitive skin and have a hard time finding products that don’t irritate it. I use this serum every night before bed, I also add a couple of drops of Tea Tree essential oil and Frankincense to this amazing blend and it has helped my skin so much. I highly recommend it.

I have very, very sensitive skin, especially my face. I am also close to 60 yrs old and started to have a few deep lines. So I ordered this face serum, knowing that Rosehip has been used as an emolient for thousands of years and is full of Vitamin C. The product is well developped, has no fake scent and my skin is soft, the lines on my face have softened and I’m very happy with this product. The service at Laughing Lichen is superior to many and the staff are lovely. It helps that they are Canadians, living a life full of environmental stewarship and sharing their knowledge with the world.
