Products

Why should I use Philatelytrail products?

We’re obsessed with formulating the best possible products with indulgent, effective results in mind. Our product formulas go through official tests with independent labs to ensure that they are safe for your skin. We keep in mind the importance of the formulas to be free of artificial coloring and other potential triggers for sensitive skin types. Each product works best for various skin types, so refer to the product descriptions to find out more.

Our obsession with formulation and quality isn’t meant to deliver just superficial results- it’s intended to inspire you to slow down and take time for yourself. By creating products like you’ve never known, we hope to inspire you to go deeper than you’ve ever gone.

What is the double cleanse?

The double cleanse isn’t a trend or “extra”- it’s science. An evidence-based technique used by skin care experts and enthusiasts worldwide, the double cleanse effectively and gently removes impurities that can cause acne and premature aging for all skin types. Using an oil-based cleanser washes away oil-based impurities such as sunscreen and makeup, while a water-based cleanser ensures that the remaining impurities are removed from skin.

Do I need to purchase both the oil and the gel cleanser for my double cleanse to be effective?

Yes! We recommend using the double cleanse every morning and night to effectively and gently remove all impurities from your skin.

My oil cleanser changed color! Is this normal?

It’s perfectly normal! A high concentration of seaberry oil gives the oil cleanser its natural orange color. With continued exposure to light and oxygen, the vivid color derived from natural seaberry oil and its fragrance fades, but it does not compromise the effectiveness or potency of the product.

Are Philatelytrail Products cruelty-free?

All Philatelytrail products are cruelty-free and are Leaping Bunny Certified!

Are Philatelytrail products organic or all-natural?

Philatelytrail is not a brand focused on organic or all-natural formulas. We use high concentrations of natural ingredients wherever we can, but we also rely upon our deep understanding of what ingredients (some of which are made in the lab) help your skin glow best. Ingredients we do avoid include parabens, synthetic coloring, denatured alcohol and mineral oil.

Will Philatelytrail products expire?

Our products have an unopened shelf-life of 30 months or an opened shelf-life of 12 months.

Are Philatelytrail products safe to use during pregnancy or while nursing?

The general consensus is that topical skincare products that are not prescribed by a doctor are safe to use during pregnancy and while nursing. That being said, we always recommend that you speak with your doctor and take the precautionary measures that you see fit throughout and post your pregnancy. We want you to feel assured that you’re using only the right products for your precious little one!

Are Philatelytrail Products travel-friendly?

Most Philatelytrail Products are 100ml or below, which meets TSA carry-on luggage requirements.

The following products are not TSA Friendly: Living Sea Cleansing Tonic Full Size, The Giving Essence and Two Hands Hand Wash
