The natural alcohol used in some Janesce products is sourced from fermented grapes. It is used at incredibly low levels (less than 1%) to aid the penetration of plant actives into the skin. It has no negative effects on the skin.
Ethylhexylglycerine is a preservative that is used in very low concentrations in some Janesce skincare products. It were chosen because it scores very favourably on the EWG (Environmental Working Group) Cosmetic Ingredient Safety Database.

How to Increase Intensity
As a general rule, it’s best to apply a Janesce concentrate after misting, as the mist provides a hydrating buffer for the skin. This helps to prevent any over-stimulation that might occur from the powerful plant actives. However, if you think your skin is strong enough, you will receive even more therapeutic benefits if you apply the concentrate prior to misting.
Passion Over Profit
Janesce concentrates are powerful herbal medicines for the skin. Why? Because the plant extractions are highly concentrated and matured for years in the Janesce lab like a fine wine. Other ranges simply cannot match the concentration of Janesce extracts. Jan’s processes are not driven by profit. Instead, they are driven by passion for the potency of the product and compassion for the people who will use them. There are a thousand ways she could cut corners, but she never does. The results speak for themselves.
How to use
Soak your skin with a warm damp cloth (See how to skin soak below)
Start with a fine mist to hydrate your face, creating the perfect base for application.
Add two to three drops of serum to the palm of one hand and mix. Apply serum. The whole face can be treated or just areas of excessive pigmentation
Gently massage into the skin. Immediately follow with moisturiser to seal the hydrating plant extracts into the skin.
Tips
Use twice daily. In the morning, follow with Shade of Pale Perfecting Lotion

Our skin has a natural barrier. It protects the deeper layers of skin from environmental irritants. In the beauty industry today, this skin barrier is often stripped away through over-cleansing, exfoliation and harsh peels.
At Janesce we have the upmost respect for the skin barrier. We believe it is vital to work in harmony with the skin’s defences, not against them. Our skincare philosophy works to strengthen this layer and foster a healthy, natural glow.

In Janesce, we place a high priority on strengthening the skin barrier – the uppermost layers of skin that protect the vulnerable layers beneath. Over-cleansing can undermine the skin barrier. This is one of the biggest causes of skin problems, even for oily skin! This is why we recommend you cleanse in the evening only.
In the morning, simply wipe the skin with a damp cloth and move onto The Janesce Skin Soaking Routine. This will remove any excess oil or perspiration without compromising the skin barrier.
HOW TO SKIN SOAK
In the morning fill your sink with warm water, add a few soaking drops to the water and take several deep breaths, enjoying the therapeutic fragrance.
In the evening, begin by cleansing your skin of makeup, sunblock chemicals and pollutants that can build up during the day. Follow with the soaking ritual (as above).
Immerse your Janesce Soaking Cloth in the warm water, wring out the excess and press the damp cloth to your face and neck area. Take five slow, deep breaths and enjoy the process.
Repeat this step at least three times to ensure your skin is fully hydrated.
Immediately after soaking, apply a Janesce mist and/or serum.
Do not dry your face or let the moisture evaporate as this will undermine the benefits of skin soaking. Apply a Janesce moisturiser or facial oil to seal in all that botanically-enriched hydration.
