For Summer 2026, we are bringing back one of our most beloved seasonal serums of all time: BLUE TANSY + VITAMIN C BOTANICAL FACIAL SERUM

This is one of the most beautiful products that we've ever made and will only be available for a limited time. 2026's formula will be very similar to the versions that we've made in the past, but we've upgraded the ingredients to include the anti-aging and sun-protective oils of Borage Seed Oil, Meadowfoam Oil, and Carrot Root Oil.

This is truly a decadent, luxurious, and powerful blend made from plant-based oils of Grapeseed, Peach, Green Tea Seed (Camellia) Oil, Meadowfoam, Cherry, Borage, Blueberry, Carrot Root, and Kiwi, plus Vitamin E, Vitamin C, and pure high-quality Blue Tansy essential oil. It feels light on the skin, soaks in easily, has a very delicate aroma, and leaves skin feeling extremely soft and smooth.

With a natural blue hue, Blue tansy is revered for benefitting a range of conditions and skin irritations, is known to calm and balance skin, is beneficial for all skin types, and fortifies everything from anti-acne to anti-aging formulas. The blue tansy is nestled within a blend of lightweight and antioxidant rich oils known to repair, smooth, soften, nourish, protect, assist with wrinkles, signs of aging, sun damage, and promote collagen.

Vitamin C is a powerful anti-oxidant, brightens and clarifies skin, evens skin tone, increases natural collagen production (to help diminish fine lines and wrinkles), increases moisture and hydration, and is a beneficial post-sun treatment to lessen the damage of UV exposure.

The Vitamin C in this formula is Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate - the most stable, potent, and effective form of Vitamin C. The type of Vitamin C used in most products, especially water-based serums is L-ascorbic acid, which doesn't penetrate as well, can irritate sensitive skin, and oxidizes extremely quickly (which means that it loses efficacy very readily). In fact, one study showed that Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate penetrates skin 3X better than L-ascorbic acid. Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate can also be used by those with sensitive skin, and is more effective at promoting collagen production. The manufacturer recommends that it be used at concentrations of 0.1%-2% for skin health and visibly benefiting damaged skin. It is approved as a quasi-drug in Korea at 2%, and in Japan at 3% (plus, approved as a functional ingredient for whitening at 2% in Korea). Since our goal is not to whiten your skin, but to give you the benefits of this ingredient, we are using Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate at a rate of 1% within this formula.

This really is a lovely and balancing oil with a delicate floral herbal aroma. Blue tansy is such an exquisite ingredient, and all of the ingredients merge together synergistically in this gorgeous serum.

Here is a little more information about the ingredients packed inside each bottle:

Grapeseed Oil (certified organic): A very popular for skin care because it is naturally high in antioxidants, is non-comedogenic (doesn't clog pores), softens skin, is often used to help with wrinkles and signs of aging, and helps promote collagen repair.

Carrot Root Oil (organic Carrot roots, Daucus Carrot Sativa, macerated and infused into organic Sunflower Oil), (certified organic): Rich in carotenoids, vitamin A, and antioxidants, this powerful oil helps provide natural sun protection, damage caused by sun exposure, and environmental pollutants, and assists with signs of premature aging.

Vitamin C, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate: Vitamin C is a powerful anti-oxidant, brightens and clarifies skin, evens skin tone, increases natural collagen production (to help diminish fine lines and wrinkles), increases moisture and hydration, and is a beneficial post-sun treatment to lessen the damage of UV exposure. The Vitamin C in this formula is Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate - the most stable, potent, and effective form of Vitamin C. The type of Vitamin C used in most products, especially water-based serums is L-ascorbic acid, which doesn't penetrate as well, can irritate sensitive skin, and oxidizes extremely quickly (which means that it loses efficacy very readily). In fact, one study showed that Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate penetrates skin 3X better than L-ascorbic acid.

It is approved as a quasi-drug in Korea at 2%, and in Japan at 3% (plus, approved as a functional ingredient for whitening at 2% in Korea). Since our goal is not to whiten your skin, but to give you the benefits of this ingredient, we are using Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate at a rate of 1% within this formula.

About our Seasonal Serums: Every season, we create an exclusive and limited-edition facial serum. These unique and creative combinations are specially formulated and handcrafted in small batches by Irene (Fawn Lily Botanica's Owner + Maker) to correspond with the season since our skin's needs change throughout the year.

How to use:  First, wash and dry your face with water or a gentle facial wash. Mist with 1-3 spritzes of facial toner and allow to air dry or gently pat dry. Finish by applying 1-2 pumps of facial serum.  Allow to absorb completely into skin before applying makeup or sunscreen. Use twice per day (morning/night) for best results.

To extend the shelf life, store in a dry, cool, and dark area. Direct light and heat will reduce the effectiveness and shelf life of the product.

Note: Some of the oils used in or formulas are very rich in fatty acids, and will naturally solidify in cold conditions. This is perfectly normal for these oils, and will not impact their quality or usage. If you wish to remove any solidified fats in your oil, the best way to do this is to place the entire bottle in a double boiler over low heat and allow the oil to slowly heat up. Once warm, any solidified particles will remelt.

New favorite serum!

I have tried about a dozen or so of Irene's lovely facial serums, and while I enjoy them all, this new spring seasonal serum is one of my absolute favorites! I even like it more than the bakuchiol serum, which I didn't think would be possible! It feels silkier than others, and I love that leaves a soft matte finish - not oily at all. It just melts into my skin and really lasts. And the smell is light, refreshing, and perfect for spring - soft florals mixed with a little earthiness. Please keep this one around!

I love how effectively this serum evokes spring! It feels light and nourishing

I love how effectively this serum evokes spring! It feels light and nourishing. The seasonal serums make thoughtful, synergistic use of what is most vibrant in the moment and it’s a treat to feel this face oil mirroring and connected to everything that’s blooming and bursting with life right now. Your body will notice, and appreciate it! The scent is floral without being overly sweet, and the fruit shines. I really like how all of the Fawn Lily products have complex, natural scents, and are never overpowering. Thanks Irene!

This serum works wonders

This one’s special. I saw results after only a few days of using. My face feels smoother overall. All of my fine lines are definitely more faded. I love the smell of this one and how it feels on my face. The ingredients list is impressive! No wonder my face is improving. I wish this wasn’t just seasonal. Love it!

Sandalwood and Frankincense serum - love it!

I bought this serum based on the ingredient list and have really enjoyed it! I mix it with the Bakuchiol serum - I wouldn't want to miss out on either's benefits. :-) I liked it enough to buy another bottle before it was sold out! I really love what these serums do for my skin.

Can’t live without it!

All of Irene’s serums are absolutely fabulous! I am 58 years old and my skin feels amazing. I used to have dry, flaky skin in the winter but not since using the serums. I thought using serum would be too heavy in the summer months but I don’t notice it at all. My daughter - in her early 20s - started using the serums almost two years ago and said it was a game changer for her. Her skin is so healthy now where she used to have breakouts regularly. Although I don’t like it when Irene announces that she is out of certain products 😱, it makes me appreciate that I’m supporting a small business and I look forward to her emails to announce what is back in stock.

Green Botanical Facial Serum

A dark-hued vial of botanical wizardry has tamed my rebellious combination skin without any revolt. This verdant serum has a balanced texture that sinks into thirsty pores, leaving a luminous calm instead of the expected slickness. Post-application, my complexion glows like morning light filtering through gauze—calm, repaired, impossibly fresh. 
The unfortunate twist is that this is a limited monthly edition with no clear way to repurchase. Here's hoping the creators recognize they’ve made an essential elixir for those with skin that craves both sophistication and substance.

Serum of the month

Love, love, love the monthly serums! I look forward to them each month. My skin has been thoroughly happy. I alternate with them and the bakuchiol serum which I’ve seen unbelievable results with!
I wanted to eat November’s serum(Cardamom)!❤️

Believe the hype

I've been using Fawn Lily's serums ever since she started selling them on Etsy, ages ago. They are all fantastic, my serum of the month subscription is something I will never give up, but never has one made my skin feel as silken soft as a just boiled gnocchi. There is no other word to describe it. I'm in my mid-50s and I think this stuff is too good to be true. Just wow.

Heather, Wow! Thank you so much for writing this beautiful and helpful review for our Serum of the Month and new Bakuchiol Botanical Facial Serum! We especially love your description 'silken soft as a just boiled gnocchi' - so true and such a brilliant description! We're thrilled to hear how well this serum it's working on your skin and how much you're enjoying all of the Serums of the Month. The seasonal serums are such a joy to formulate and create, and we're so glad to know that you enjoy using them. Thank you so much for all of your support over the years, we truly appreciate you! - Irene, Fawn Lily Botanica

Love Serum of the Month!

This was my first time using the "serum of the month" and I'm in love. I'm pretty married to my routines and have used the facial toner and oil for several years. As much as I love them, I'm more in love with this past month's serum. It provides a creamy feeling along with a light scent that makes my skin glow. Now I'm not sure if I'll go back to the oil or not. Thanks for making such wonderful products that I'm willing to break out of my box to try.

Glowing skin for this 55yr old dude feels great!

Some are hits others stink

The serum from December/January that contained jasmine was nice and not overwhelming. The one for February/March (I’m not actually sure what month it is but it seems like it’s every other month, or maybe it was just slow to start?) contains something called benzoin that smells horrible. It’s like cleaning solution. Blah! But after a few minutes, it’s tolerable. The serum itself is fine minus the smell.

Overall, I don’t know if I’ll keep using this stuff because as one other person said, I get better results from commercial products.

...a tropical paradise for your skin

The medley of tropical oils brings the fragrance of guava and passion fruit to your skin. Allow the daily application to whisk you away to a tropical paradise.

Hi Richard Thank you so much for the lovely review! I'm so happy to hear how much you've enjoyed using this facial serum! I agree that the tropical aromas of this serum were extra special, and I absolutely loved creating this blend for you. Thank you so much for your support and for leaving such a wonderful review!
