SERUM OF THE MONTH {PRE-ORDER}

Welcome to the Serum of the Month!

Every month, we create an exclusive facial serum available only by pre-order and subscription!* These unique and creative combinations are specially formulated to correspond with each month since our skin's needs change throughout the year. Formulated and handcrafted by Irene (Fawn Lily Botanica's owner + maker). This is a perfect (and fun!) way to try new ingredients, formulas, and receive a serum custom-made for this season at your doorstep. Pre-orders close on the 10th of each month, then are made fresh and shipped the following week.

February's special serum will be a luxurious and decadent blend featuring three of everyone's favorite ingredients: cacao, rose, and vanilla!

We won't be using the synthetic fragrances of chocolate, roses, and vanilla that you see in most products... we're using real Bulgarian rose absolute, cacao, and vanilla beans! These exquisite aromas will be nestled within a blend of luscious botanical oils including kukui nut oil, cherry kernel oil, pomegranate seed oil, passion fruit seed oil, marula oil, and shea nut oil.

This blend feels silky, nourishing, and soaks into skin effortlessly, leaving skin feeling incredibly soft and smooth. This formula is really incredible, not only for the intoxicating aroma, but also because it is so amazing for the skin.

Curious why most products contain fragrance oils of cocoa, vanilla, and rose instead of the real deal? It's because these are three of the most expensive ingredients to source and can also be difficult to formulate with. Their synthetic alternatives are readily available, inexpensive, simple to use, and very strongly scented. For example. did you know that it takes 60 roses (5 dozen roses!) to make a single drop of rose essential oil? That's why it's so costly to purchase true rose oil, and why most rose-scented products contain synthetic fragrances!

The essential oils of these plants are more delicately scented than synthetics, so expect a light and natural aroma from this facial serum with subtle and lovely notes of chocolate, roses, and vanilla - it will not be a strong "in your face" scent because we're utilizing real and natural ingredients instead of synthetic fragrances.
