NOV-JSB-SAM
NOVA DELUXE SAMPLE
MAIN BENEFITS
MEDIUM WEIGHT HYDRATION
Heavier than our everyday hero, BLOOM, NOVA lasts and prevents the notorious "retinol peeling" with rich pomegranate and a balanced dose of phytoceramides.
WITHOUT THE DRAWBACKS
Momma to be? Sensitive skin? Commonly outside? Don't want to skin cycle or encounter redness? NOVA was made for you. She is plant powered, safe, and because the response mimics retinol but isn't harsh or overpowering the balance of skin.
DEEP WRINKLES & SMOOTHING
Plumps from the inside out with intense collagen boosting and hydration. Deep wrinkles and fine lines are filled in by the renewal effect. With daily use it will reveal a noticeably smoother surface within 15 days.
ACNE
Prevents pore clogging by basal rejuvenation. NOVA accelerates turnover to help prevent dull skin from blocking and creating blemishes.
HYPERPIGMENTATION
Reservoirs of melanin are released, and anti-inflammation actives prevent common stressors for new melanin production. Spots and area of dark tone are normalized to reduce the appearance of dark spots.
CUSTOMIZE YOUR REGIME
Best applied after LUCID clean and dry skin. Easily pairs with BLOOM or OASIS. Apply prior to OASIS or after BLOOM to add anti-aging benefits with the power of phytoretinols.
Different functions and benefits and also NOVA is a bit more coating to the skin to help prevent the normal flaking or drying effect that can happen when using retinol.
HOW TO USE
UNWRAP
Remove from veggie paper carton. Carton is often torn when opening and not developed for long term use and will not protect from crushing when in use.
JUICIEST DEW APPLICATION
On clean dry skin swipe directly holding the bar lightly with 2 fingers. Avoid heavy pressing as it may cause breakage and is unnecessary. Serum deposits by skin absorption and not by heat. Place bar in container then massage all over.
HOT TIP: Cover lips and areas under eyes with OASIS or BLOOM for calming protection as these are areas of thinner skin and don’t need retinol rejuvenation.
STORE DRY
Our permanent metal cylinder ensures it remains dry and protected. Paper refills are for shipping and is best when used only a short time.
MORE DETAILED APPLICATION DIRECTIONS HEREREFILL
Make sure permanent container is clean and dry. Unwrap NOVA bar from veggie paper carton and place into container. A smaller bar at 20% size usually can coexist with a new refill if a larger jelly is desired for daily continued use.
CONTAINER CLEANING
Spritz with alcohol or alcohol-based sanitizer and wipe container dry between refills. Bar can also be sanitized this way if needed.

SUSTAINABILITY
WATER FREE & FUNCTIONAL
Most serums or water-based products contain 85%+ water. The others that are waterless tend to use caprylic esters and cheaper caprylates that feel nice but don’t improve skin health. They temporarily hydrate and give a nice aesthetic but makes your skin crave more in a short amount of time. We provide long lasting skin healthy benefits in a single application.
We take the top 10% of traditional beauty product actives and use them as our entire product. That means 100% pure ingredients sans water, no water in any step of our creation, and no extra weight to your packages! This cuts down emissions and carbon footprint by over 95% while also conserving precious resources and delivering a highly functional skincare product.
PERMANENT CONTAINER - NOT INCLUDED IN THIS PURCHASE
We chose plated steel for our jelly bars because it weighs 95% less than glass, it easily refills, it’s endlessly recyclable, and is leakproof while traveling. There was no other plastic free material that could refill as easily without issues of breakage or needing plastic wrapping or pieces, so this was a no brainer for us.
REFILLS
Refillable packaging can reduce energy consumption around 60–70% per product compared to single-use packaging. Our paper refill uses plant inks, is FSC certified, and created for home composting or curbside recycling. Weighing in at only a few grams it is the easiest and lightest way to ship product before it is filled into its permanent container.
SPECIAL NOTE: Paper tubes were tested and not compatible with our innovative creation due to non-compostable linings (often silicone and plastic) and the inability to protect from crushing and squishing during its life. A free form bar in a square was our best option for our skincare.
STRIVING PLASTIC FREE & ZERO WASTE
Plastic is a problem. Once created it merely breaks into smaller particles and we are now learning it has a detrimental impact to our health, environment, and never truly integrates back into our planet (ugh the forever chemicals!). Recycling plastic is a myth and it’s made from petroleum (yuck the gas and oil industry). We think it’s totally unnecessary in beauty, so we made it obsolete.
CARBON OFFSET
We not only ship all orders Carbon Neutral we also offset our company activities each year based on a calculated footprint. C02 matters but we also want to make it clear that this is a term large corporate companies created to seem greener. We prevent instead of clean up and feel this is that standard that is most important to consider.
