Science
What is in it, and how we talk about it.
Short answers, and an honest note where the evidence is not settled.
Ingredients
Coconut Oil for Skin is a cold-pressed, refined coconut oil selected for facial use — light enough to melt on contact, stable enough not to turn. The full INCI list is printed on every bottle and will be published here in full once the final production batch is confirmed.
Full INCI list, sourcing origin and batch testing: pending from the brand.
Method
The ritual combines three things that work differently: skincare on the surface, Gua Sha on circulation and touch, and Face Yoga on muscle use and habit. We teach them together because that is how they were practised before they were sold separately.
Standards
We publish a claim only when we can point to something behind it. Where we have not tested something ourselves, we say so rather than borrowing someone else's number.
- No before-and-after images unless shot at the same angle, light and expression, with consent and a date.
- No percentages without study design, sample size and duration.
- No press logos without real coverage we can link to.
- No ratings we cannot trace to a real, consenting customer.
Frequently asked
Will Face Yoga replace injectables or surgery?
No. It is a self-care practice for muscle use, circulation and everyday tension. It is not a medical treatment and it does not do what a procedure does.
How often should I practise?
Most people do better with five to ten minutes daily than with a long session once a week. Consistency matters more than intensity.
Can I use the Gua Sha without oil?
No. Without slip the tool drags the skin. Always apply oil first, and add more if the tool catches.
Is coconut oil suitable for acne-prone skin?
It suits many people and not everyone. Coconut oil is comedogenic for some skin. Patch test along the jaw for a few days, and stop if you see congestion.
I recently had filler. Can I start?
Ask the practitioner who treated you first. Massage and pressure over recently placed product is not something we can advise on remotely.
How long until I see something?
Puffiness and tension often respond the same morning. Anything to do with tone and habit is measured in months, not days, and it varies from person to person.
