Safety Information
For external use only. Avoid direct contact with the eyes and rinse thoroughly with water if the oil gets into them. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Close the bottle after use, keep it away from heat and direct sunlight so the oils stay fresh, and store out of reach of children.
Not recommended for:
- Anyone with a known sensitivity to bee-derived ingredients such as honey, propolis or royal jelly.
- Anyone with a known nut sensitivity — the formula contains sweet almond oil.
- Broken, irritated or sunburned skin — wait until the skin has settled.
- Use around the eye contour, which has its own formula in this collection.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where does an oil sit in the routine?
A few drops after your serum and before your cream, morning and/or evening, massaged gently into the face and neck.
Will it feel greasy?
No. It is formulated to absorb quickly and settle into a comfortable, non-oily finish, which is why it can go under a cream rather than only on top.
Can oily skin use a face oil?
Valmont recommends it for all skin types, including oily. Two or three drops are enough; oilier skin usually prefers it in the evening only.
Can I mix it with foundation?
Yes. One drop stirred into a liquid foundation gives a silkier, more luminous finish.
How is it different from the other L’Elixir des Glaciers steps?
It is the only pure oil in the collection — no water phase, no emulsifiers — so it works as a nourishing add-on to any routine rather than replacing a serum or a cream.
