Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I need to keep this in the fridge?

Our fresh, nutrient-rich formulas are preservative-free, meaning they’re alive and at peak potency when stored in the fridge. Just like fresh food, this keeps the active ingredients stable and maximizes their bioavailability—so your skin gets the most out of every application.

How long do your products last?

Because our formulas are made fresh in small batches, they have a shelf life of three months when stored in the fridge (or up to one year if kept in the freezer). Each jar is designed for regular use within that time, so you can enjoy the full benefits while it's at peak freshness.

What makes Shimmer Chef different from other skincare brands?

We don’t just use superfoods, we treat skincare like nutrition—blending the expertise of a culinary chef and an esthetician to create living formulas that work with your skin, not against it. Our products are handcrafted, zero-waste, and fermented for maximum potency, all without synthetic preservatives or fillers.

What skincare products does this replace?

This isn’t just another step in your routine—it’s a multitasking powerhouse. Our Apple Cider Mignonette Vitamin C Accelerator is designed to replace all skin creams- from your eyelids to your toes, this creams does it all! By simplifying your skincare with one balm that does it all while delivering fresh, nutrient-dense ingredients your skin barrier actually recognizes. Instead of layering multiple synthetic products, this one formula is everything in one—hydrating, exfoliating, balancing, and strengthening your skin barrier in a single step.
