Introducing our latest innovation: a luxurious body oil infused with Bakuchiol, a natural alternative to Retinol. Bakuchiol is renowned for its gentle exfoliating properties. Our team has extensive experience with Bakuchiol, collaborating with Victoria Health several years ago to explore its remarkable benefits. This fast-absorbing, lightweight ingredient harmoniously blends with our new oil formulation, offering a nourishing experience that leaves your skin feeling rejuvenated and pampered. Even if you're typically hesitant about body oils, this product will transform your skincare routine, providing deep hydration and promoting a radiant complexion. Bakuchiol is a natural compound celebrated for its anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial properties and ability to improve skin tone. Unlike retinol, bakuchiol is photochemically stable and does not increase the skin's sensitivity to sunlight, making it suitable for individuals with sensitive skin. Indulge in the exquisite formula we have put together just for you! Below are the primary advantages of each ingredient:
Sunflower Seed Oil: Rich in vitamin E and fatty acids, it moisturizes and protects the skin barrier.
Chardonnay Grapeseed Oil: Lightweight and high in antioxidants, it aids in skin repair and elasticity.
Apricot Kernel Oil: Nourishes and softens the skin, suitable for sensitive skin types.
Squalane Oil: Mimics the skin's natural oils, providing deep hydration without a greasy feel.
Prickly Pear Seed Oil: Contains essential fatty acids and vitamin E, promoting skin elasticity and brightness.
Sea Buckthorn (Seed and Berry) Oil: Packed with vitamins and omega fatty acids, they support skin regeneration and combat dryness.
Bakuchiol Oil: A natural alternative to retinol, it helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and improves skin tone.
Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate Is an oil-soluble, stable vitamin C known for its antioxidant properties, which help prevent lipid peroxidation. Topical applications can reduce the harmful effects of UV exposure. Research indicates that it stimulates collagen synthesis, clarifies, and brightens the skin by inhibiting melanogenesis (the production of pigment), which promotes a more even skin tone. Unlike ascorbic acid, it does not exfoliate or irritate the skin. Product Benefits Moisturizing

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 to a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take the oil 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. Some oils, like coconut cream and jojoba oil, have a super long shelf life.
Refrigeration of The Following Ingredients is Not Necessary, But it 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 <i>(whole or ground)</i> should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts are created using grain alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herb, root, trunk, leaf, and flower. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be stored in the refrigerator or a dark, dry place. Other Raw Ingredients - such as Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc., will all have different shelf lives.
I’m not a fan of oils and took a chance with this bc of the ingredients. Glad I did. It’s not oily. I use a pump for both arms and another pump for both legs. I use the residual on my hands for neck. When working outside soil and such doesn’t stick to my arms, one of the reasons I normally hate body oils. Too soon to see results other than soft skin.
Hi Jennifer (long time and greatly appreciated customer)
Thank you so much for taking a chance on our body oil, especially as someone who’s not usually a fan of oils! We're so glad to hear it didn’t feel greasy and that you’re already noticing softer skin.
It’s wonderful that it’s also helping to keep soil and debris from sticking to your skin (I wish I had this product back in my horse days) we completely understand how frustrating that can be, especially when working outside. It sounds like you’ve found a great routine with it, and using the extra on your neck is such a smart touch.
We hope you continue to see even more benefits with consistent use. Thanks again for your thoughtful review, it means a lot to us!

This cream is so healing to my skin. I have a sensitivity to citrus products and get a terrible rash and my face will itch. This is the only product that calms my skin.I apply this and within a few hours the rash has diminished and the itchiness is gone. The Calendula Blossom Cream has saved my skin.

Magic in a bottle!
This product has become a required staple in my skincare routine. I use it everyday on my very sensitive skin that is prone to redness and dryness. Not only is it extremely calming and soothing, but it also makes my skin look more plump and moisturized. I never want to be without this product; it has shot to the top of my "best skincare products of all time" list, next to the gentle cleansing gel. I highly recommend trying this if you have sensitive or aging skin that needs a boost of rejuvenation.

Great to have on hand if you use a lot of actives!
Sometimes, you just need a great soothing moisturizer, and this one is my new favorite! I recently graduated from using retinol to tretinoin and whoaaaaa boy. All my other creams had actives that were only making the tret burn worse. This was perfect for helping soothe my skin, and now I use it to buffer the tret!

Calming and refreshing
Calming and refreshing. I love spritzing this hydrosol after my cleansing routine or midday. My skin loves both this and the rose hydrosol. The scents are also very lovely.

I adore a good lavender scented product! A natural botanical even more! I use this spritzer as a bottom layer to smooth and evenly distribute some of my other outstanding GOW products. It’s a great starter and makes me smile in the mornings.

Love everything!
Every single product is top tier with clean ingredients! Definitely my favorite skincare company right now!
Love this! Works for my skin & allergic reactions! 😊
Yayyyyy, thank you for sharing this!
Not having any allergic reactions to a product is such a blessing.
Let us know how things go after a couple of months.
I find this product to be very beneficial for my aging skin as well.

I finally got around to using this. I decided that it did not meld well with the collective butters and oils I used. I ended up adding rose and mimosa wax to cover it up!
Rae Lynn,
We are sorry this happened. • ᴖ •
The name is deceiving. Although it is genuinely from the carnation flower, it doesn't
smell like a carnation. It has lovely properties, though.
We do hope the final formula has worked for you.
Your team from GoW.
I got this to harden a lotion bar recipe. It did the trick. I may have used a bit too much, though! I think I will back off to 1 oz next time.
Hi Rae Lynn
Good for you! I can't even share the length of time it took to create skin care products, or how hard those waxes were to work with. They still are at times.
Please keep in touch if you have any questions.
We are always here to help.

I finally got around to using this. It smells good.
