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 love meadowfoam oil. It’s a great product with great skin properties.
Hi there ☺️
We love, love, love this oil as well. It is a harder one to source, and thankfully, our supplier
only offers the rich, orange/red unrefined version. Just gorgeous and so light on the skin.
Thank you for your lovely review.

Light and soothing
This is a great oil for mature skin.
Thank you, Susan
Our Meadowfoam Seed Oil has always and forever been one of my favorite oils. I'm so glad
you said that you find it soothing and light for your skin.
Try blending with a few drops of Prickly Pear Oil sometime. Ohhh lala

amazingly rich oil!
This is in the aging with wisdom blend, and I keep a bottle around for using on dry patches, cuticles, split ends, eczema and keratosis pilaris. It really sinks in and helps create a barrier to cold dry air in winter, keeping moisture in. The scent is unrefined and nutty but evaporates on the skin. Great for sensitive dry skin with a compromised barrier and people with many allergies like me!
Thank you! This is a wonderful oil that is often overlooked!
I use this at night with a few drops of an oil and it’s the perfect level of moisture for my skin, even during winter. Heavy creams cause issue for me and this is perfect.

Amazingly enough
Amazingly enough... this stuff really seems to be making a difference for the skin under and around my eyes. I'm pleasantly surprised by this eye treatment. I especially love that it is all natural and no silicones, which my skin seems to immensely dislike. I have only been using for a short time but so far am very impressed. I definitely plan to order again!

Excellent
I’m so happy to have finally found a nail product that absorbs into the nail (and hopefully the nail bed) instead of sitting on top of it. I love that it needs no removal and that I can keep adding more without developing layers of it on top.

Great product
I have rosacea and several chronic illnesses that cause facial flushing. I have tried lasers, red lights, and every cream and serum imaginable. This, in conjunction with red light therapy, is the first thing that has made a visible improvement in my broken capillaries.
I use this at night with a few drops of an oil and it’s the perfect level of moisture for my skin, even during winter. Heavy creams cause issue for me and this is perfect.
Hi Harmony ♡
Thank you for talking about this. It is a great product (Decadent Oat Infusion) but
also you mention the perfect routine.
Just a bit of a serum and a few drops of oil works for so many people.
⋆.˚✮ ✮˚.⋆ for taking your journey with us.
You have been around for quite some time and it greatly appreciated.

We’re so glad to hear this has been making a difference for you, especially so early on.
The eye area can be delicate, so it means a lot to hear it’s feeling like a good fit.
We also understand how important it is to avoid ingredients that don’t agree with your skin, so
we’re happy this has been a comfortable option for you.
Thank you for sharing this with us, and we’re grateful to be part of your routine. ☺️☺️☺️
The Yarrow Blossom mist is great! It calms my sensitive and irritated skin. I have been looking for something like this for a long time. I'm so happy that I found it!

We’re so happy you found this and that it’s been a calming support for your skin. Sensitive, irritated skin can be such a challenge, so it means a lot to hear this has been a good fit for you.
Thank you for sharing this with us. We’re truly grateful you found your way to it.
My skin is both reactive and acne-prone. Stuff like Stridex pads are too drying, and I reacted to something in the gentler CosRx blackhead power liquid. So it's nice to have a simple product with a short ingredients list! If my skin has decided to play nice with it by the time I finish the sample, I will buy a full size.
Hi Beans
We’re so glad this has been a comfortable fit for your skin so far. We know how challenging it can be to find something that works well for both reactive and acne-prone skin without causing dryness or irritation.
Simple, gentle formulations are something we care deeply about, so it means a lot to hear that your skin is responding well.
We hope it continues to treat you kindly, and we’d love to be part of your routine if you decide to move to a full size.
Markey
This stuff is amazing. It gets all the gunk out of your pores and makes your skin glow with such clarity. I’ve been using this cleansing oil for about 10 years now. I’ll never use anything else. It helped balance my extremly oil acne prone skin as well.
⋆.˚✮ ✮˚.⋆ for this lovely review of the Blemish Prone Cleansing Oil!
Gunk is a perfect descriptive word for a well balanced cleansing oil.
We are so grateful to be part of your routine and wish you the very
best on your skincare journey.
