Why we stand behind it
Firming & Energizing Body Oil improves skin elasticity while stimulating collagen production. Packed with potent essential fatty acids, vitamins and antioxidants, it addresses skin concerns like sagging, loss of firmness and stretch marks. Fresh aromas of lime, black pepper, smoky woods and spearmint invigorate and enhance clarity of thought.
This fast-absorbing body oil with the anti-aging benefits of a serum is expertly formulated with an oil-soluble Vitamin C THD Ascorbate (50x more effective than L-Ascorbic Acid) which allows to penetrate the lipid layers of the skin more effectively while boosting elasticity, firmness, and slowing skin aging.
The warm, woody scent of guaiac wood and frankincense helps balance mood, and enhance a sense of vitality. Fresh spearmint, black pepper and lime help energize skin and promote inner peace. Ylang-ylang flower helps relax the mind and lift low spirits.
A lightweight, concentrated formula.

What is an undertone?
An undertone is the color beneath the surface of your skin, which never changes (even with a tan). There are three types of undertones:
Pink/Cool
I see red or pink undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin burns easily, but barely tans.
My skin looks better in silver jewelry than gold.
Neutral
I see both pink and yellow undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin sometimes burns and sometimes tans.
My skin looks good in both gold and silver jewelry.
Yellow/Warm
I see yellow or golden undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin rarely burns, but tans easily.
My skin looks better in gold jewelry than silver.
