Copaiba Oleoresin - Sustainably harvested from the Copaifera Paupera tree in the Peruvian Amazon. Using non deforestation techniques, the tree’s remain and offer regular income and habitat for local wildlife year round.
Copaiba is one of nature's potent anti-inflammatory resins and contains large amounts of beta-caryophyllene, which interacts with our cannabinoid receptors and ignites our happiness hormones.
Indigenous communities use Copaiba oleoresin for its antibacterial, anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory properties. It can also offer relief from diaper rash, psoriasis and dermatitis. - Local beeswax from Nova Scotia. Beeswax forms a protective, non-pore blocking, barrier to the skin.

I ordered the Deliquesce balm, LaLumiere face oil and the Ophelia Illuminating balm. All 3 are fantastic! I struggle with very dry skin and using these products has made my skin feel so soft and hydrated. The scents of the balm and oil are lovely and the Ophelia balm is very moisturizing and has a nice little shimmer to it. Definitely will purchase these again!
So pretty and feels so nice on. Love the scent and that hint of sparkle.
I really love ophelia. It's like my shimmery security blanket. I throw it in my bag and reach for it to give me a little lift whenever I need a boost. Cheekbone, browbone, cupid's bow, lips. It's great everywhere. (Even tame an unruly brow with what's left on your finger.) It makes my thirsty, perimenopausal skin, happy. (And my soul happy, of course, because shimmer!)
I recently had a small day surgery and my lips were so cracked and chapped from the hospital and this balm softened them up overnight. Highly recommend
This product is not only hydrating but feels light on the face and leaves me glowing. It also smells great. Most days I don’t even wear makeup. I just use this highlighter and go! I feel good knowing it’s nourishing my skin as well.
