What Is Climate Adaptive Skincare?

As the seasons transition from summer to fall, humidity levels drop, the air gets drier, and subsequently our skin requires extra hydration. But while the weather is still in a state of flux, you'll need something to keep skin balanced during the heat of the day, yet still comforted during the cool, crisp evenings and early mornings. Meet the moisturizer that adapts accordingly.

Our climate adaptive Velvet Botanical Moisturizer senses the level of humidity in the environment and delivers just the right amount of moisturization to give skin exactly what it needs, when it needs it.

What Is Climate Adaptive Skincare?

Our secret to perfectly hydrated skin - it's what makes our new moisturizer so versatile. The climate adaptive formula senses a change in humidity levels to keep skin perfectly comfortable and balanced.

Formulated with an ultra-hydrating base of organic Aloe Leaf Juice (comprised of mainly water) and cold-pressed organic Jojoba Seed Oil, the certified organic formula contains high-tech, natural emulsifiers which have been scientifically developed to neutralize the effects of humidity on our skin.

Our one-of-a-kind moisturizer ensures comfortable wear for all skin types in any climate and has been rigorously tested to feel the same way on skin, regardless of the level of humidity or dryness in the air.


The Best Moisturizer for Humid Climates

Our skin strives to be perfectly balanced and maintain the same levels of water and oil at all times. In humid climates, there is more water in the atmosphere which tricks your skin into thinking it needs to produce more oil than usual.

The key to re-balancing oily skin is not skipping out on added hydration (or using an oil-free product) but opting for a climate adaptive moisturizer that will restore and replenish water content in the skin.

The Velvet Botanical Moisturizer is formulated with added Jojoba Oil Esters and Oil to help balance oil production and promote the look of natural repair, while not clogging pores or leaving behind a greasy residue. This lightweight formula has a slightly mattifying effect, ideal for wearing under makeup.

The moisturizer is also rich in ultra-hydrating micro Hylauronic Acid (low molecular weight), a humectant that attracts water molecules and helps the skin hold on to moisture, keeping hydration locked in.


The Best Moisturizer for Dry Climates

A drier climate means less water and moisture in the air, so our skin naturally produces less oils, leading to dry, flaky and dull skin. Our moisturizer is infused with Jojoba Oil, a liquid wax that is very similar to the natural oils of our skin, which helps restore and lock in hydration to prevent further moisture loss.

Keep in mind, spending time in air conditioned environments throughout the summer (which suck out moisture from the air) can also effect the skin's natural oil production and lead to dehydration.

To help fight feelings of dry, tight skin, we recommend using a spritz of our Luminous Botanical Face Mist for an added hydration boost throughout the day. Infused with active moisturizer and natural skin barrier enhancer, Meadowsweet Flower - it's the perfect antidote to parched skin.


No matter the season, the Velvet Botanical Moisturizer is equipped to take on any type of climate or weather.

Try our Velvet Botanical Moisturizer and stay glowing all day long with perfectly balanced, hydrated skin.
