FORMULATION FACT 01

We innovate facial oils that offer superior skin benefits, with ingredient safety as our top priority. Naturally-derived oils are typically more concentrated than their extract counterpart, requiring especially meticulous scrutiny. For example, we diligently limit furocoumarins—naturally-derived citrus oil components known to cause skin irritation in the presence of UV light.

FORMULATION FACT 02

Understanding that "natural" isn't always synonymous with "safe," we undertake a comprehensive evaluation of every naturally-derived oil and extract integrated into our formulas. Our process includes paying precise attention to the total product presence of potential irritants, sensitizers, and photoactive compounds. This diligent assessment is crucial to ensure that our products not only harness the inherent benefits of nature but also maintain our rigorous standards of safety and skin compatibility for our users.

FORMULATION FACT 03

We avoid harmful naturally-derived ingredients Commiphora Mukul Resin Extract, an endocrine active ingredient with evidence of thyroid function interference.

      She Brightened, She Moisturized, She Glowed

      I love that hydrated, healthy glow, and I’m a huge fan of a facial oil experience. I’ve never really liked lotions or creams, but oil is completely different. This Counter product feels so luxurious on the skin. It’s like liquid gold, smells amazing, and gives my skin that fresh, radiant look I love. I also feel really good about the ingredients Counter uses, which makes me even more excited to use it. Honestly, I'm about to reapply right now because I need that glow!

      The Best Brightening Vitamin C oil

      I love this product beyond any other. My face glows and the scent is heavenly (not overly perfuming and just the right kind of fresh citrus)! This is a must have for older skin or young skin (my daughter and I fight over who should use it more).

      Cherry on top!

      Add a drop of facial oil with your moisturizer every morning and night and thank me later. The citrus subtle scent is so refreshing.

      My Face Loves this Facial Oil

      Counter Brightening Facial Oil is one of my favorite Counter products. The light scent is perfect. Coverage is great, so I only need to use a little bit over my moisturizer each night.
