What is Niacinamide?

Also known as Vitamin B3, this powerhouse vitamin is effective in treating many common skin conditions like rosacea, acne, eczema, and psoriasis. Well-tolerated by even the most sensitive skin, niacinamide heals damaged skin, reduces inflammation and redness, smoothes fine lines and wrinkles, and improves uneven skin tone and dark spots.

What is Avocado Oil?

Loaded with omega-3 fatty acids and vitamins A, D, and E, avocado oil is easily absorbed by the uppermost layer of the skin. It moisturises and nourishes dry and irritated skin and relieves inflammation from eczema and psoriasis. It also accelerates wound healing and has powerful anti-inflammatory effects which help to reduce the redness and inflammation associated with acne.

Squeeze a pea-sized amount into palm and apply to clean face and neck using gentle upward strokes, avoiding the eye area.

Use AM and PM.

Pestle & Mortar is an Irish Skincare Brand which has exploded onto the global skincare market in recent months. The brand founder, Sonia Deasy, entrepreneur and mother-of-five, cites the following as her brand philosophy, her motivations and the inspiration behind her product formulations: 'Fuelled by a desire to simplify multi-step skincare routines and frustrated by the lack of affordable skincare solutions which produced the desired results, I decided to create my own. My immediate family ancestry of six generations of Indian Medicine was instrumental in shaping my vision for Pestle & Mortar.

I fused nature with science to create a range of skincare products that provide simple solutions for beautiful skin. My formulation mantra is 'simple, natural, effective & suitable for all'. I believe that daily skincare routines should be simple and provide cumulative benefits with consistent use. The Pestle & Mortar less-is-more philosophy extends throughout every aspect of the brand, from product formulation through to packaging and dispensing mechanisms.'
