Describe your daily skincare routine
It’s simple and almost the same AM to PM. I cleanse with something creamy and gentle, then apply Active Treatment Essence followed by Active Botanical Serum using our Push/Press Method from the neck up, including around my eyes. For day I finish with sunscreen. At night I do a 1-minute face massage. Those two simple steps give my skin everything it needs—hydration, moisture, antioxidants, hyaluronic, Vitamin C, probiotics, stem cells, micro exfoliation, nutrition, phytoceramides and more.
What does clean beauty mean to you?
It’s so much greater than non-toxic ingredients. Consumers should feel empowered to consider the overall ethos of brands and hold them accountable. We exist to not only impact your skin, but to have a positive impact on the world. Social and environmental responsibility are infused into our business, from ethical sourcing and recyclable/biodegradable packaging to carbon credits, green certifications and donating to charity.
Where should people start when transitioning to Vintner’s Daughter?
I don't believe you need a 15-step routine. Two products that are truly worth every cent because of their results and the quality they adhere to are better for your skin (and the planet) than a drawer full of ineffective products filled with synthetics and toxins. The world is waking up to the true costs of consumption, and there is nothing more sustainable than less.
Can you share the process of formulating your products?
To make the very best of anything takes time. This is the foundation upon which we are built, and it’s what drives the performance of our formulations. We say that we move at the Speed of Quality. Our formulation is a study in the methodical attention to detail and adherence to the highest levels of quality. We begin with whole plants sourced from conscious growers. They are amongst the world’s most nutrient-dense botanicals and have been revered since ancient times for their transformative, healing properties. Next, we create our signature Phyto Radiance Infusion™; a 3-week long, temperature-controlled process that gently extracts the full spectrum of our whole plants’ nutrition. The process captures complete skin nutrition while protecting nature’s powerful synergies. Skin immediately recognizes our plant actives, and puts them to work. And just as your body never grows tired of optimal nutrition, neither will your skin.
What makes your brand unique?
At the heart of every formulation is our proprietary Phyto Radiance Infusion™. It’s the engine of our advanced technologies and award-winning performance. No other skincare is made like this and as a result, our formulas can communicate with the skin at a deeper, more foundational, level. All-in-all, for a product to wear a Vintner’s Daughter label it must be game-changing, category-defining and truly deliver results. These are high standards that take years to achieve. That’s why we focus on fewer (better) products that our customers marry, for life.
