Unopened products, that are not exposed to heat and high temperatures have a shelf life of approximately 18 months (although we have some batch samples that are still fresh and viable long past the 1 year mark.) We recommend storing our products in a cool, dry setting under 75 degrees F/ 24 degrees C to preserve their quality.

I am a health worker, and my job requires me to wear a mask all day. Can you offer me tips on taking care of my skin?

Avoid wearing makeup.

Cleanse your face before and after putting on your mask.

Use a facial mist or toner throughout the day.

Apply a skin barrier with oils and creams rich in fatty acids.

Avoid products with harsh chemicals.

Always keep your skin moisturized with a barrier cream after cleansing and toning.

You can learn more about these tips in detail in our blog.

Do natural body oils provide more value than lotions?

Yes! The highly concentrated active ingredients in natural body oils can penetrate more deeply into the skin, and they are also free of harmful chemicals.

It only takes a few drops of natural body oils to moisturize your entire body, while it takes a few pumps from a lotion dispenser to achieve the same result.

Lotion rubs off quickly while natural body oils are absorbed by your skin more effectively, meaning you only have to apply natural body oils once to last you all day.

 

How can I moisturize my skin using natural body oils to maximize its benefits?

Exfoliate your skin before applying natural body oil.

Take time to massage the oil gently into your skin until it is well absorbed to avoid any lingering greasy feel.
