Why We Made It
A concentrated facial oil serum for dry, sensitive skin in pregnancy, postpartum and beyond, with no essential oils and no added fragrance. Its mild warmth comes from natural vanilla bean.
Tender Skin Serum was made for the times when your skin needs more, but your senses may want less.
Pregnancy, postpartum and other seasons of change can leave skin feeling drier, tighter or more sensitive than usual. Tender Skin is a concentrated, water-free facial serum made to soften, condition and help replenish the skin’s moisture barrier without essential oils or added perfume.
Its scent comes from the ingredients themselves. Botanical oils carry their own quiet aroma, while slices of vanilla bean slowly infuse the formula with a very mild warmth. Nothing is added simply to make the serum smell a certain way, and the natural scent is never covered with masking fragrance.
The texture matters just as much. Tender Skin spreads easily and sinks in beautifully, leaving the skin soft and silky rather than heavy or greasy. A few drops give enough slip for slow facial touch before disappearing into the skin.
This serum was created during motherhood, but it does not belong only to pregnancy or postpartum. It is also made for skin that is easily reactive, redness-prone or simply feels better with fewer aromatic ingredients. People living with rosacea often look for skincare without added fragrance because fragrance can be a source of irritation, though every person’s skin responds differently.
This is a quieter form of neurosomatic skincare. There is no strong aromatic anchor asking for your attention. The silky texture, the touch of your own hands and the familiar rhythm of applying it become the sensory experience instead.
Made fresh in small batches and formulated by a former nurse and certified aromatherapist.
More about this formula
- THE DETAILS
Tender Skin was created for times when your skin needs rich care but your senses may want less. There are no essential oils or added fragrance in the formula. The very mild scent comes naturally from the botanical oils themselves and from vanilla bean slowly infused into the serum. Nothing is added simply to make it smell a certain way or to cover the natural aroma of the ingredients. Here, the sensory experience comes mainly through the silky texture, the touch of your own hands and the familiar rhythm of applying it.
No. Pregnancy and postpartum were part of why I created it, but Tender Skin can stay with you long after that season. It is made for dry, sensitive and easily reactive skin, including skin that becomes red easily or simply feels better with fewer aromatic ingredients. It is also a beautiful choice for anyone who prefers facial skincare without essential oils or added fragrance. Tender Skin is the serum I reach for when the skin wants nourishment and the sensory experience needs to stay quiet.
Because the ritual begins before the serum reaches your skin. Tender Skin does not rely on a strong aromatic experience, so touch becomes even more important. Feeling the velvet, opening the pouch and taking out the bottle gives your hands the same familiar sensory cue each time. With repetition, the pouch, the bottle, the silky serum and the touch of your hands become one familiar sequence of care.
