Your Skin Has a New Rhythm
And It Deserves Care That Fits
As time passes, your skin’s needs naturally shift.
Moisture doesn’t last as long.
Creams that once melted in now sit on the surface.
Comfort becomes harder to find.
Not because anything is wrong —
but because your skin simply produces fewer lipids than it once did.
That’s why Velvette exists.
Founded by a cosmetic chemist, our oils are centered on one principle:
replenishing the essential lipids your skin naturally makes less of over the years.
The result?
Silky, velvety nourishment that brings back that feeling of balance, comfort, and glow.
The Oils Women 45+ Keep Coming Back For
Many have reordered 10-12 times — because once their skin feels nourished and comfortable again, they don’t want anything else.

Our promise to you
Why I Created Velvette
As a chemical engineer turned cosmetic chemist, I became fascinated with what makes skincare truly effective — and why so many products stop working as our skin changes over time.
After studying more than 200 plant oils, one thing became clear:
Skin that’s changing needs richer, more intentional nourishment.
So I created Velvette — skincare built with purpose, using only nutrient-dense, carefully selected oils your skin can actually recognize and use.
Today, women in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond tell us:
“My skin finally feels comfortable again.”
“This brings back that feeling my skin used to have.”
“This is the first product that makes sense for me now.”
And that’s exactly why Velvette exists:
To bring back that feeling of balance, comfort, and glow —
beautifully, thoughtfully, and without compromise.
Frequently asked questions
Will Velvette oils make my skin feel greasy?
Not at all. Each formula was carefully designed by our cosmetic chemist founder to absorb quickly, leaving skin soft and velvety — never heavy. Our customers often say, “My skin just drinks it in.”
Why oils instead of creams?
Oils deliver moisture differently than creams. While creams are mostly water (which evaporates quickly), oils act as a breathable layer that helps lock in hydration and support your skin barrier. A few drops go a long way, making oils a simple, effective way to keep mature skin nourished and comfortable.
Can I use the oils on their own?
Yes. Many women use our oils as their only moisturizer. If you enjoy layering skincare, simply apply water-based products first, then seal it all in with the oil.
If I only start with one, should it be Day or Night?
Why a Day Face Oil and a Night Face Oil?
Your skin’s needs change throughout the day.
- In the day, skin produces more oil and faces environmental stress. Golden Glow is lighter, with antioxidants and barrier support to keep skin resilient.
- At night, oil levels drop and skin shifts into repair mode. Lunar Renewal is richer, designed to replenish and restore while you sleep.
Used together, they give your skin around-the-clock care.
Should I still wear sunscreen?
Yes — always. Our oils support your skin barrier and defend against environmental stress, but they are not a replacement for sunscreen. Apply oil first, sunscreen second, and makeup (if you wear it) last.
Are the oils scented?
Our oils have a subtle, natural aroma from the plant oils and essential oils themselves. No heavy perfumes, no synthetic fragrance. Just a gentle, uplifting scent that fades softly after application.
Will the oils stain my clothes or bedding?
Most absorb quickly and leave no trace. The only exception is our Night Face Oil, which has a natural orange hue from sea buckthorn. To be safe, allow it to absorb before your head hits the pillow.
How long do the products last?
Our oils last 12 months after opening (24 months unopened). Vitamin E and the amber glass bottles helps keep them fresh for longer, but for best results, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct light.
How does shipping work?
Yes. Most orders ship from Calgary, Alberta, Canada within 2–3 business days. You’ll receive tracking information once your order is on the way. For more information, please visit Shipping.
