Waiwai Facial Serum - Sensitive Skin

Waiwai Facial Serum is a lightweight, nutrient-rich botanical facial oil created for sensitive, reactive or easily unsettled skin.

Formulated with avocado, borage, hemp seed, rosehip, evening primrose and sweet almond oils, this gentle daily serum helps nourish the skin barrier, lock in moisture and restore lasting comfort without overwhelming delicate skin.

By supporting barrier repair and reducing inflammation, this lightweight serum helps to calm sensitivity at its source, delivering deep hydration and a smooth, radiant complexion.

Rich in essential fatty acids, omega oils, phytoceramides and botanical nutrients, Waiwai supports healthy skin function while leaving the complexion feeling softer, calmer and more resilient.

Use morning and night as the final nourishing step in your cleanse, mist and nourish ritual, or anytime your skin feels dry, tight, stressed, red-looking or prone to sensitivity.

Formulated without synthetic ingredients, preservatives or parabens.

Waiwai means “essential” — and for sensitive skin, that is exactly the point.

Good for sensitive, reactive, dry, delicate or easily unsettled skin that needs gentle daily support.

Use when your skin feels dry, tight, stressed, red-looking, fragile or prone to sensitivity. Waiwai helps restore and strengthen the skin’s protective barrier, reduce the appearance of redness and sensitivity, and lock in moisture for lasting comfort.

Best for skin that feels overwhelmed by harsh skincare and needs fewer aggressive steps, more nourishment and barrrier support

After cleansing and misting, apply 2–3 drops of Waiwai Facial Serum to clean, slightly damp skin.

Warm between fingertips, then gently press into the face, neck and décolletage using soft upward motions. Use morning and evening as part of your daily routine. In the morning, follow with sunscreen.

For best results, use with Tūī Oil Cleanser and Kakara Rose Essence Mist as part of a gentle cleanse, mist and nourish ritual.

Patch test before first use, especially if your skin is sensitive or reactive. Apply a small amount to a discreet area and wait 24 hours before using more broadly. Read our patch testing guide here: https://loveskin.co/blogs/loveskin-blog/the-importance-of-patch-testing

Waiwai Facial Serum – Essential Care for Sensitive Skin

Derived from the Māori word Waiwai, meaning “Essential”, this calming facial serum is exactly that—essential for anyone with sensitive, reactive, or easily irritated skin.

Formulated in New Zealand, this serum is a natural solution for those who struggle with redness, dryness, or flare-ups due to environmental stressors or compromised skin health.

Gentle enough for daily use, powerful enough to transform sensitive skin—Waiwai by LOVESKIN is the essential step your skin has been asking for.

We need a healthy skin barrier to protect the skin from environmental impurities and prevent exposure to irritants. When this barrier is stripped sensitivities are activated and irritation and dryness becomes worse.

Our Waiwai Moisturising Serum supports and repairs the skin’s natural barrier, helping to rebalance the skin. Inflammation and irritation are reduced, the skin is able to lock and retain moisture, healthy cellular turnover resumes and symptoms of sensitivity, such as dryness and irritation, then ease. 

Embrace relief from sensitivity symptoms and enjoy replenished, glowing skin with Waiwai by LOVESKIN.

Directions 

After cleansing and toning, apply 2–3 drops of Waiwai Facial Serum to clean, slightly damp skin. Warm the serum between your fingertips, then gently press into your face and neck using soft, upward motions.

Use morning and evening as part of your daily routine. Allow the serum to fully absorb before applying your sunscreen.

For best results, avoid harsh exfoliants and foaming cleansers while using Waiwai—instead, focus on gentle, barrier-supportive care to allow your skin to heal, rebalance, and thrive. Try our Tui Cleanser and Kakara Toning Mist to complete your routine!

Waiwai is specially formulated for sensitive, reactive, or compromised skin, offering essential support for lasting comfort and calm.
