Ideal for skin that craves the comfort of an emollient-based formula, the Saffron Rose Majikal Facial Lotion doesn’t just moisturize—it transforms. It works deep within the skin’s layers to repair and replenish, helping to smooth out fine lines, restore elasticity, and revive your complexion’s natural radiance. Your skin will feel softer, plumper, and more resilient, with a healthy, youthful glow that defies the signs of time.
And for those intrigued by the science behind the Majik, don’t forget to explore our blog for a deep dive into the wonders of ceramides. Discover how these vital lipids are crucial in fortifying your skin’s barrier, locking in moisture, and protecting against environmental stressors. With the Saffron Rose Majikal Facial Lotion, you’re not just treating your skin but investing in its future.
Method of Application Spritz your face with spring or mineral water for moisture. Apply a small, pea-sized dollop to the tip of your index finger and dab around your face and neck. Spritz again and gently pat the lotion on your skin. The moisture from the mineral water will help the product to glide on smoothly without tugging at your skin while also allowing the amount of product needed to a minimum.
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.

Skin ceramides make up 50% of the lipids in the extracellular "cement" that binds together protective cells in the outermost skin layer, the stratum corneum. The loss of skin ceramides renders aging skin permeable to moisture, leaving skin dry, rough, and itchy; ceramide loss is also a major contributor to wrinkles. Saffron Threads Saffron Essential Oil
If you love roses, the genuine rose scent of this lotion is simply dreamy! On the face this is a light and gentle moisturizer that is agreeable with my rather uncooperative/reactive facial skin. It is rare for me to find a moisturizer that doesn't burn when my skin is actively flaring yet every single product from GOW that I have tried to date has been quite comfortable. My only regret is not finding GOW sooner.
It’s wonderful to hear that you’ve found a lotion that works so well for your skin! The genuine rose scent must make using it feel like a little spa experience every day. It’s always a relief to find products that provide comfort without irritation, especially during flare-ups. Here’s to enjoying your skincare journey with GOW!

The best!
I love this lotion. I have extremely sensitive acne prone skin with type 2 rosacea that HATES occlusives and most emollients. Most moisturizers are too thick for my skin and I ends up with breakouts or closed comedones. I've gone through multiple jars of this without any issues. On top of that it seems good and hasn't irritated my skin. I have normal-combo skin that's prone to dehydration and I like adding a few drops of a hydrator like 24 Hour Moisture Serum or Super Hydrating Gel underneath.
Thank you so much for this review! :)

Fabulous lotion
I bought this lotion as a sample and had to buy a bigger jar. I have sensitive, dermatitis prone skin and am always very cautious about trying new products. This one is very light and has ingredients that make my skin happy. It isn’t enough moisture for the winter months on it’s own, so I add in an oil based serum I made for my skin. It also smells great and the scent doesn’t linger and feel overwhelming. I will be coming back for this one time and time again!
Thank you so much for reviewing this!

Beautiful Lotion
I really love this lotion. It has a nice, light texture that absorbs easily into skin. It seems perfect for summer heat but I've been using it during the cold months as the final layer, after hydrosol and an oil blend.
We are super pleased to hear you love this lotion so much! Thank you for writing this!

Nice lotion, but need something more hydrating
I really love the texture of the cream and I really want to love it. I have so much trouble finding creams that don't irritate my very dry sensitive rosacea fungal acne skin.
I am going to keep trying it because all the ingredients seems like they should be okay for my skin, and maybe it will be perfect for the summer but for now I don't find it hydrating enough and it slightly itches my cheeks. This said I am determined to continue trying it and so far I have been loving applying it around my eye area over the cucumber gel eye cream. I do think the cream would be amazing for someone with sensitive combination skin during the winter months.
Thank you for your kind review. If you have any hyaluronic acid serum you can put a few drops in the palm of your hand with a dollop of the Saffron Rose Cream and a few drops of a rich oil would be awesome. Emulsify with your fingers and pat into moist skin. This can really make a huge difference when a cream doesn't feel hydrating enough. Keep us updated if you can. ~Markey
Love this cleanser. Gentle and seems to hydrate and leave my skin with a little glow.

The Banana Healing Serum is wonderful for sensitive reactive skin
The Banana Healing Serum is wonderful for sensitive reactive skin. Whenever my skin gets red and inflamed, this along with the calendula cream are the only products that calm my skin.

Incredible
Waited until I used the whole bottle to review... My rosacea has improved so much using this emulsion!!! I'm in love with the fact that it's a moisturizer with no oils or butters, for I have very dry but easily clogged skin. The oat smell was not a problem for me and became comforting in a strange way LOL! Thank you for making such great products!! <3

The BEST Azelaic Acid Product I've Tried
I've been using azelaic acid for a couple of years for my pustular rosacea. It is the one thing that helps my skin stay clear the most. I've tried so many different brands, and most contain ingredients that clog my pores or my skin can't tolerate (like silicones, glycols, and other acids). This product has been AMAZING--it smooths my skin and bumps, it isn't harsh, and gives me a nice glow without being oily or sticky. Also I've noticed azelaic acid works better for me than other derivatives. The slightly grainy texture of this product doesn't bother me and doesn't linger on my skin. Please don't stop making this version!!!

Refreshing and calming
Refreshing and calming. So many skin benefits but even if there wasn’t any benefits I’d use it for the smell alone!
Love this cleanser. Gentle and seems to hydrate and leave my skin with a little glow.

I tend to hate the feeling of greasy, heavy creams and was pleasantly surprised by how this is neither of those! The unscented version still has a very light, pleasant, and quickly dissipated smell.
Hi Andy, Thank You 😊
This makes us smile. We worked hard to create a cream (the Flirty Mango Butter Cream) that feels nourishing without ever feeling heavy or greasy, so we love hearing that it felt just right for you. Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review.
