Chartreuse Daily C Serum and Radiance Face Cream on a wooden table with rose petals and a lemon
Small batch · Washington State

Skincare made to order.

Vitamin C serums, a face cream, a body oil and a sugar scrub, made slowly, in small batches, by hand, on our land in Washington State. Nothing sits on a shelf for months.

Why fresh matters

Most skincare sits in a warehouse for months. Yours hasn't been made yet.

Vitamin C is at its best fresh. Dr. Frances makes each serum, cream and scrub by hand after your order comes in, in small batches, and sends it straight to you.

Made after you order

Every jar is mixed by hand once your order arrives, not pulled from a stockroom.

Ships within 5 days

USPS Priority Mail from our land in Washington State. Most orders arrive about three days after they ship.

No fillers

Every ingredient is essential to the final product, and every one is listed on the product page.

Questions

Why is it made to order?

Fresh is the point. Dr. Frances makes your products by hand after you order, so they reach you fresh instead of after months in a warehouse.

How long does shipping take?

Orders ship within 5 business days by USPS Priority Mail, and usually arrive about three days after they ship.

When do I use Goddess C Serum?

At night, after cleansing. Smooth 3–4 drops over face, neck and décolletage. In the morning, use Daily C Serum and Radiance Face Cream, which sits well under foundation.

Are the ingredients organic?

We use organic ingredients and cold-pressed oils, with no fillers. Each product page lists every ingredient.

I have sensitive skin. Can I use these?

Check the full ingredient list first, and try a small amount on your inner arm before using a new product on your face. Some products contain tree nut oils (almond, hazelnut) and essential oils.

How do subscriptions work?

Choose a plan on any product page. Monthly is 10% off and charged each month; skip, pause or cancel anytime before your next order. The 6-month plan is 20% off, paid upfront every 6 months, and still made and sent fresh each month; it renews automatically until you cancel, and you can cancel anytime before your renewal date.
