"I've been using facial oils my whole life. The Youth Dew was the culmination of blending the most powerful and incredible active ingredients I'd tried in other oils and that had worked for my skin," May Lindstrom reveals about the origin of this formula, which was part of the first four products created by the brand (even before The Blue Cocoon!).
Rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and composed of 21 of the most regenerating and balancing botanical oils, The Youth Dew was designed to treat skin that has suffered burns or injuries to the dermis, hence its main function is to restore its natural balance.
Its formula is so regenerating and balancing that it's especially beneficial for oily or acne-prone skin, as well as for congested, stressed, or dull skin. But it doesn't stop there. The Youth Dew hydrates, plumps, protects, and brightens all skin types, even the most sensitive, from young to mature skin.
But how and when should it be used?
Don't be fooled by its oily texture, as The Youth Dew works like a serum on the different layers of the skin without greasing, clogging pores, or leaving unnecessary shine. Quite the opposite. It's a product designed to be applied immediately after cleansing and on still-damp skin. According to its creator, “ The best way to use The Youth Dew is to massage 2-3 doses onto wet skin, this will facilitate penetration and activate all the water-based nutrients.”
It is precisely these nutrients—which include vitamin C, coenzyme Q10, and omega 7—that regulate sebum production in the skin and protect it from external factors that cause aging.
For all these reasons, The Youth Dew is the most suitable facial oil to help balance the skin and combat or reduce the signs of aging at any age.
THE YOUTH DEW VS. THE BLUE COCOON
"I love mixing The Youth Dew and The Blue Cocoon." May Lindstrom is quite clear on this, but how can we combine them to maximize their effectiveness?
The main difference between the two products is their texture. The Youth Dew is an oil, while The Blue Cocoon is a semi- solid balm . In terms of formulation, The Youth Dew is ideal for when your skin feels dull, stressed, or unbalanced, while The Blue Cocoon is the best remedy for soothing inflammation and other skin discomforts.
Both products can be used together daily. They can be layered. — first The Blue Cocoon and then The Youth Dew — or by mixing both products in the palm of your hand together with The Jasmine Garden to facilitate penetration into the skin.
In both cases, the recommended amounts are a pinch of The Blue Cocoon — equivalent to the tip of your finger Index — and between 2-3 servings of The Youth Dew.
KEY INGREDIENTS
“ The 21 ingredients in The Youth Dew are incredibly exceptional, but for me These three are the ones that make the difference ,” says its creator.
- Sea buckthorn berries or Hippophae: Originating in ancient Greece, these berries are the highest plant source of vitamin C, vitamin E, and unsaturated fatty acids like omega-7. They have great antioxidant and antibacterial properties and slow aging through collagen production. They also give The Youth Dew its vibrant orange color. “It’s one of my favorite ingredients,” Lindstrom adds.
- Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10): An antioxidant naturally created by the body for proper cell function. CoQ10 protects the epidermis at all layers from free radicals that cause damage and oxidative stress. —causing premature aging— . CoQ10 production declines after the age of twenty, so any external intake is of great benefit. Furthermore, the CoQ10 used by May Lindstrom is plant-based, obtained through a bacterial fermentation process, and suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
- Tamanu Oil: traditionally used to heal skin conditions — such as rosacea, eczema, or acne — The oil extracted from the Tamanu tree promotes and accelerates cell regeneration. Its distillation requires a meticulous process that can take more than two months and can only be done twice a year, which is why it is considered a "sacred oil" and the most prized natural anti-inflammatory.
