When you bring a jar of Earth Lab skincare into your home, you are holding something alive with nature’s goodness, the oils, butters, and botanicals blended with care and without synthetic preservatives. Because these products are natural, they thrive when treated with a little mindfulness.
Think of it like bringing home fresh food from a farmers market. The right conditions will keep it at its peak, so you can enjoy every spoonful just as it was meant to be.
Keep Them Cool and Dry
Most of the time, no. Refrigeration can make natural products too firm and harder to use. But during summer or in the middle of a heatwave, it can help to pop them in the fridge for a short while. This stops the products from melting and helps keep their freshness.
Do You Need to Refrigerate?
Most of the time, no. Refrigeration can make natural products too firm and harder to use. But during summer or in the middle of a heatwave, it can help to pop them in the fridge for a short while. This gives them a little reset, bringing the texture back to balance.
Why It Matters
Natural ingredients like shea butter, coconut oil, and cocoa butter are sensitive to heat. Without stabilisers or synthetic fillers, their texture can change with the seasons. Storing them thoughtfully ensures they stay creamy, smooth, and easy to apply.
Final Thought 🌸
A little mindfulness in storage goes a long way. By keeping your products cool and out of the sun, you will enjoy them at their very best, fresh, effective, and just as they were meant to be.
Warmly,
