FAQ — The Face Elixir

Can the Face Elixir replace my moisturizer?+

Yes — for most skin types, the elixir provides sufficient hydration and barrier support. If your skin is very dry, layer beneath a lightweight cream.

Is the formula safe for sensitive or acne-prone skin?+

Yes. No added synthetic fragrance or harsh actives. Every ingredient serves a functional purpose to support balance — suitable even for reactive skin.

Does the formula contain essential oils?+

Yes, in trace amounts — Blue Tansy and Helichrysum essential oils for skin-calming and restorative benefits, not for scent. No synthetic fragrance added.

Why is the elixir amber-colored?+

The warm hue reflects concentrated botanicals and antioxidants — no dyes or colorants.

Can I use this with sunscreen or retinol?+

Yes. It layers beautifully under SPF and alongside retinoids to reduce dryness and maintain barrier integrity.
