Jen's thoughts: "This serum is smooth, really lovely to put on! Great for lines and wrinkles, smoothing out skin, puffiness under the eyes, and hydration, and it has a sensual smell as a bonus! This product is concentrated (no water), so don't go too crazy :)"
Shelf Life and Storage Information for Our Products and Ingredients
Finished Products - generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life. Sample Sizes - do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months), and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).
Please keep your products out of humidity, heat, direct light and in a dark cabinet when possible:
Exfoliating Acid - products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.
Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark:
Hydrosols and Distillates - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it into a separate,sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally, you can refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take it out, warm it up at room temperature and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. There are some oils with a super long shelf life, like Coconut Cream and Jojoba Oil.
Refrigeration is not necessary, but it surely won't hurt:
Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place. Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated. Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare" butters. You can remove what you need and keep the rest in the fridge. Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years. Herbs - all herbs (whole or ground) should be kept in a dark, cool and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts - these are created using alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herbs - root, trunk, leaves, and flowers. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be kept in the refrigerator or a dark place. Other Raw Ingredients - i.e., Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc. will all have a different shelf life.
Rose Blossom Hydrosol - is hydrating, soothing, refreshing, cooling, antiaging Rose Stem Cells - are anti-aging, firming, and collagen renewal. Alpine roses are typical Swiss flowers that grow at 1500 – 3000 m altitudes. In these distinct environments, they must adapt to extreme conditions such as cold, UV, and dryness. PhytoCellTec™ Alp Rose is based on alpine rose stem cells and has succeeded in capturing these characteristics. PhytoCellTec™ Alp Rose helps to maintain the characteristics of skin stem cells and to protect these precious cells against UV stress.

Elastin adds elastin to the skin, tightening
Oat Beta Glucans - are soothing, calming, anti-aging Progeline™biomimetic peptide allows, according to the company, to modulate progerin, to result in a complete remodeling effect and reduction of the appearance of wrinkles and sagging skin. Argireline(acetyl hexapeptide-3 or acetyl hexapeptide-8)prevents dynamic formation.
Argireline affects nerve-to-muscle communication, so muscles can’t adequately contract – fewer muscle contractions result in fewer wrinkles. Argireline is a powerful ingredient that stimulates collagen production, the fundamental building block of skin and hair. Collagen is essential for maintaining elasticity, resilience, and suppleness, providing internal support to keep us flexible and resilient. However, as we age, collagen levels naturally decline, which can begin as early as our mid-twenties. This depletion leads to the formation of wrinkles, sagging skin, and loss of firmness. Syn®-Coll is a synthetic peptide that stimulates the skin's natural mechanism to produce collagen. It is based on a small peptide developed to reduce any wrinkles. Leucidal SF(lactobacillus fermentation) is a preservative that adds beneficial probiotics to the skin. This preservative does not contain any parabens or formaldehyde releasers All-Trans Resveratrol extends telomeres in skin DNA, a very effective antioxidant that helps to fight free radical skin damage, packed with vitamins and minerals, skin food in the form of phytonutrients (proanthocyanidin), topically, fights carcinogens, an inhibitor of enzyme oxidative activity SOD (superoxide dismutase) Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) is an enzyme that quenches excess superoxide radicals and other reactive oxygen species. Hyaluronic Acid is a polysaccharide molecule that offers a viscous matrix to the surroundings and protects cells and their connective tissue. Our eyes have abundant naturally derived hyaluronic acid in our eyeballs. That explains a lot. It is produced throughout our bodies.

Deep of Lines Dramatically reduced! (especially eyes)
I put 2 drops into my hand whipped up with my moisturizer (from another brand), and tap into my face. Holy cow, it's been a GAME CHANGER! My fine lines are dramatically reduced. I can't wait for a non-comedogenic moisturizer version of this to come out. I hate using multiple products...LOL.
Thank you for this review :) We're pleased you love it!
