Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the First Light Ritual best for?
This ritual is ideal for those seeking the complete Aurelian experience — brightening, deep hydration, and overnight renewal in one cohesive system. It suits all skin types, including sensitive skin when introduced gradually.
Can I use all five products together?
Yes — the five products are formulated to work synergistically. Layer them in the order listed above for optimal absorption and results.
How quickly will I see results?
Most customers notice improved hydration and radiance within 1–2 weeks. Brightening and renewal benefits from the Vitamin C and retinoid formulas typically become visible after 4–6 weeks of consistent use.
Is this ritual safe for sensitive skin?
Yes, with a gradual introduction. We recommend starting the Nocturne Renewal Crème 2–3 nights per week and increasing frequency as your skin adjusts to the retinoid complex.
Do I need to use SPF?
Absolutely. The Auric Melt contains Vitamin C and the Nocturne Renewal Crème contains a retinoid complex — both increase photosensitivity. Always apply SPF 30+ every morning as the final step of your daytime ritual.
Can I use the Velvet Body Soufflé on my face?
The Velvet Body Soufflé is formulated for body use. For facial hydration, we recommend the Eternal MycoLume Crème or Cloudweave Hydration Essence.
Is the Founders' Batch a limited edition?
Yes. The Founders' Batch is a limited first release at exclusive founding pricing. Once this batch sells out, pricing will reflect the full retail value.
What is the shelf life of these products?
Each product has a 12-month shelf life after opening. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight for best results.
