What's inside
The oils that do the work
Kalahari Melon Seed Oil

From the seeds of the wild Kalahari melon, a desert fruit of southern Africa.
Baobab Seed Oil

Rich in fatty acids that cushion and soften dry skin.
From the seeds of the baobab, the “tree of life” of the African savanna.
Mongongo Oil
Schinziophyton Rautanenii Kernel Oil

How to use
- Cleanse Cleanse and pat dry. Apply toner if you use one.
- Warm drops Warm 4–6 drops between your fingertips.
- Press in Press gently into face and neck.
- Finish Follow with moisturizer if your skin is dry. In the daytime, finish with sunscreen.
- Press rather than rub, so the oils settle without dragging skin.
- Water-based layers go first; the serum is an oil, so it goes after them.
Good to know No added fragrance. It contains nut-derived oils (mongongo, tamanu, coconut), so patch test first if you have a tree-nut allergy.

The story behind
Made by hand, in small batches, by a mother and son in Brooklyn
Marianella spent her childhood in her grandmother's kitchen in Venezuela, making soap and beauty products by hand, and years later the memory of those oils led her to Kalahari melon, which grows wild in the sands of southern Africa. She built our signature serum around it, adding baobab, camellia, passion fruit and tamanu, and her son David gave it the look it wears today.
We blend every bottle by hand in our Williamsburg workshop, in batches of 50 to 100, so each one is fresh. No harsh chemicals, no animal testing, and as little waste as we can manage. This is the formula People named Best Facial Care Product.
The perfect partner
Gel goes on after toner; the serum's oils follow and seal the water-based gel in.
Serum on face and neck, roller around the eyes and on the lips: they share nearly the same oils.
Serum by day, the Potion as your last evening step; both hold vitamin C.
Vitamin C serum first, since it is water-based; the Kalahari oils press over it.
