My Products Won't Absorb - How Can I Troubleshoot This Oily Feeling?Updated 17 hours ago

This is a great question, and it’s not uncommon, especially when transitioning to oil-based or deeply nourishing products for the first time.

Here are a few things that may be contributing, along with suggestions to help:

  • Amount: A little goes a long way with our concentrated formulas. Try using a smaller amount—often just a pea-sized or less is enough.

  • Application Method: Apply to damp skin to help the product spread more evenly and absorb better. This also prevents the skin from feeling greasy or heavy.

  • Layering: If you're using multiple moisturizing products, try scaling back to one at a time to see what your skin needs most.

  • Transition Period: If you're new to natural skincare, your skin may need time to rebalance oil production—this often resolves within a couple of weeks.

Everyone’s skin is unique, and we're here to help you find the right balance. Feel free to email us at [email protected] and we’d be happy to review your routine or offer custom suggestions based on your skin’s needs.
