Shelf Life and Storage Information for
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 always 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 (except our Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).

Please keep your products out of high humidity, heat, and direct
light, and keep them 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 the Salicylic Acid Serums as those 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 Requiring Refrigeration
and/or Kept in the Dark 

Hydrosols - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it into a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator.
Carrier Oils - generally you can refrigerate all carrier oils although some of the 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, setting the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shaking the bottle will hopefully turn into a liquid.
^There are some oils that have 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 always be refrigerated.
Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare' butters. You can take out 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 from each herb. Root, Trunk, Leaves, and Flowers. Extracts have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be kept in the refrigerator (or a dark DRY place)
Other Various Raw Ingredients - i.e. Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc. will all have a different shelf life.

Keratin Amino Acids are the Amino Acids that are extracted from the Keratin itself (amino acids are what make up a protein). They are then purified to make them stronger. However the molecule size of the keratin amino acids allow it to penetrate the hair shaft to help repair damage (where as hydrolyzed keratin does not penetrate the hair). Keratin Amino Acids is a powerful moisturizer that can penetrate the hair enhancing its conditioning effects. Since it has a composition similar to hair and is small enough to penetrate the hair shaft where it becomes highly substantive. It is ideal for hair that has suffered cuticle damage due to the hair’s increased porosity. It can help give the hair more sheen and increased volume.

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3 biomimetic signal peptide, has effects on cells and anchoring proteins in the connective tissue, Our scalp naturally produces oil which can cause a build-up of sebum. One scalp stimulator is commonly referred to as acetyl tetrapeptide-3. Through in-vitro testing, this particular peptide has been shown that it can anchor proteins in the connective tissue. Combining this peptide with red clover extract helps to slow down hair loss as well as blocking the negative effects of DHT. What is DHT? The main hormone our body produces is testosterone. For this hormone to be carried to tissue such as the skin, the testosterone must bond with enzyme 5-alpha reductase which then converts the testosterone to DHT. Once converted this and the sebum blocks the pores which inhibits hair growth. DHT literally signals hair follicles to stop producing hair. Also, our bodies naturally produce this form of testosterone, internally at the cellular level!
