As a product developer, my goal is always to create foundational products, ones that unravel the core issues behind universal skin challenges.
The Sea Soak unravels the sludge that builds up and weighs us down in our modern lives; the Sea Serum unravels the dehydration and oxidation behind dull, irritated skin; the Sea Retinal unravels the sun damage that’s the primary cause of aging; and the Eye Serum unravels the oxidation paired with lymphatic sluggishness that lead to puffy, tired-looking eyes.
Relax Infusion unravels the big one: the stress and sleep challenges underlying all of it. They’re directly linked to skin that lacks the hydration, smoothness, and elasticity we all want, negatively impacting skin’s barrier and microbiome and accelerating the aging process (which also leads to the sagging that no one wants to see).
After learning how many of you struggle with stress and sleep, I thought we all needed something that could profoundly calm the nervous, digestive, and immune systems for a deeper sense of peace and a better night’s rest.
The wonderful people at La Ferme Saint Sylvain worked with me to define the perfect blend of medicinal herbs that would address the variables with the greatest impact on sleep and stress—without the typical side effects. Every plant in this special mixture (angelica, tulsi, sage, and calendula) is organically grown on their pristine farm in central France, on land that’s been in their family since 1640. After harvest, the herbs are cut and dried with meticulous attention to detail that I was lucky enough to see firsthand when I visited the farm this past summer.
I find Relax Infusion (which you can think of as a caffeine-free tea, but it’s so much more than that) to be so remarkably relaxing that I couldn’t even fathom taking it during the day. After half a cup, I get the same feeling I do on a snowy night, when everything is covered with a cozy white blanket that somehow makes the air feel still and quiet. And once I’ve finished it—because it is really, really tasty—I'm fully ready to go to bed.
The best part: I wake up refreshed and rested the next day. And I’m sensitive to side effects; if I take a melatonin gummy designed for kids, for example, I’ll feel as though I’d been hit with an elephant tranquilizer the next day. This product has been a complete game-changer for me, cutting my lengthy de-stressing bedtime routine down to the time it takes to enjoy a cup of tisane with a few deep breaths (essential for a healthy lymphatic system!). I hope it’ll be a game-changer for you, too.
Read all about it and pick up one of the first beautiful jars, designed by my wonderful and talented friends at Office.
