Blissoma Holistic Skincare

Blissoma Holistic Skincare Get ready to love your skin. www.blissoma.com What makes Blissoma special? By not changing the botanicals Blissoma offers a big change for your skin.

Blissoma makes clinically proven, whole plant skincare for people who want to end skin problems like acne, rosacea, and eczema. 17+ years of expertise, 20+ awards, and thousands of happy customers. Blissoma formulations faithfully offer the best medicinal compounds from plants that are research-proven to have healing superpowers for the human body. Ingredients are fresh, stored and combined at op

timal temperatures, and blended with skill to offer a final product that is uniquely effective, pleasant to use, and a direct experience with plants as nature created them. Generally the ingredients are just 1 step away from the original plant material from which they came. Many are cold-processed and raw so that no damage is done to heat-sensitive vitamins and other valuable compounds. An initial feel of the products demonstrates the difference as the texture, color, and smell all distinctly tell the story of the nutritive ingredients contained therein. Making Problem Skin Pretty Again

When founder Julie Longyear set out to design skincare recipes she approached the task from the mindset of a true beginner. No rules or conventions from mass market skincare were used. Every emulsion system, preservative, and herbal ingredient was tested by hand to ensure complete understanding of what each offered to a final formulation. Instead of using tea tree oil for acne like so many natural product lines use Longyear created a recipe based on rose oil, providing an answer for difficult acne combined with mature skin types. Herbs are potent, but extracts commonly available to the cosmetics industry are often watered-down and generate no results. Longyear also devised her own extraction processes and make sure demanding skin types were getting the supplemental herbal nutrition they need to regenerate. Like the rest of our bodies our skin is often deficient in certain nutrients, each of us a little different from another. By providing these vitamins, essential fatty acids, and other nutrients our skin craves it is like fitting a piece in a puzzle. The skin can maintain itself properly again with targeted nutrition.

Ever wondered why brands change products you love and depend on?
We have 17 years of experience seeing what happens behind-the-scenes in the beauty industry and it’s not always pretty. 😱
Fortunately we have a solution. 🙌🏼

We’re getting our science on! 🔬
This month we committed to a new clinical trial to show our plant-based skincare can help acne prone skin. The thing is, we already know it works from 15+ years of happy customers! 🤓
Here’s the routine:
Step 1 - Free Rejuvenating Herbal Gel Cleanser
Step 2 - Smooth A+ Correcting Serum
Step 3 - Flawless Clear Condition Facial Oil

The hypothesis? That our participants with adult acne will see a reduction in the number of comedones on their skin, the skin moisture levels and barrier strength will improve, and, most excitingly, that the microbiome will be more robust and diverse.

Want to see how they work for you? Get started today and your results could be just weeks away…

So good, we mix it twice. 💪🏼💛
Lavish Loving Recovery Beta-glucan Mask has a creamy, rich texture that develops partly as a result of a second mixing. The full thickness doesn’t develop until we patiently wait for it to cool and for the Cupuacu butter to crystallize. Then we mix it again to smooth it out and transform it into the luxurious texture you experience in the jar.
Lavish is sometimes thought of as a winter skincare product but it’s super handy for dehydration and irritation from chlorinated pool water and too much time in the sun.
Can you feel the soothing through the screen? 😎🙌🏼🌱
(Side note, the Cupuacu butter for this batch smells particularly chocolatey floral - YUM!)

The doggie in the window is for display, not for sale. 😉 Our front windows have been spruced up with some new plants to make things feel more tended again, and it feels a little nostalgic remembering all the work it took to open up to the public here back in 2015. Do you have any nice memories of visiting us here?
Thanks to Maypop & The Marshall House and Garden Heights Nursery for the lovely plants and the new pots I got, and thanks to my mom for the hand-me-downs. Pots are worth a small fortune and you made me rich! 😄

Would you go on TV with no foundation on? I just did! 😎

Being on camera is one of the situations where makeup can be really useful to make skin look more even. 📸🎥

That said, I still prefer a really minimal approach that lets the skin show vs covering. That’s mainly possible because of good daily care and Photonic’s lovely skin perfecting effects.

Now, if you know of a natural hair product that can truly fight the St Louis summer humidity please let me know. So far I haven’t found anything that is truly frizz proof and not heavily synthetic.

Big gratitude to Studio STL, Missouri Botanical Garden, Missouri Botanical Garden’s EarthWays Center, and Brittany Kyles for helping spread the word about our 100% independent, healthy, natural, sensitive skin friendly, sustainable, ultimate mineral sunscreen, Photonic SPF 30.

See you on 7/11 at the Green Living Festival! Come get a free Photonic sample from me and experience what it’s like to finally LOVE your sunscreen. 😃

Rest allows your body to truly recover, and absolutely speeds skin healing. 😌
As a culture we generally emphasize “doing” over “being”. There is value in taking action toward the results you want, but you need to see the process as a partnership between you and your body. Your body is trying to do its part all the time. Sometimes what we do gets in the way of its repair activities.
When we rest we allow our bodies the space to clear debris, grow new cells, and do things it literally cannot do while we are up and active.
No skincare product can replace the benefits of rest.
Make sure you make space for deep, prolonged recovery and you’ll make it possible for your 37.2 trillion cells to be their best.

Are worries about choosing the right sunscreen living rent free in your head? 🫠

Will it leave a white cast? Are the ingredients truly safe for long term health? Will it make skin feel greasy? Will it run into eyes? Will it cause a bunch of pimples? Will it trigger redness, stinging, and flaking skin? Are there hidden ingredients? Why can’t someone just make this easier?!?!? 😩

Before your summer fun, be sure of what’s in your “mineral” sunscreen. 🫣

A 2025 analysis of the 150 top selling sunscreens on Amazon determined that nearly half of those labeled “mineral only” contained sunscreen “doping” compounds like butyloctyl salicylate.

We’re calling bullsh*t on this practice. It’s an industry-wide problem that is affecting UVA protection levels, creating skin irritation, deceiving consumers, and potentially creating long term health risks that people are actively trying to avoid. 🛑

People’s trust in cosmetic companies is low because of issues exactly like this. 🫠

Butyloctyl salicylate is structurally and actively similar to octisalate, yet it’s not regulated for use in your sunscreens in the USA, even as an “inactive” ingredient.

How much is used? You’ll never know. 😑
(It’s limited to 5% in the EU and Australia but not in Canada, South Korea, or the USA)

People buy mineral sunscreens because they’re trying to choose something safer and gentler. Instead they’re getting a whole bunch of loopholes, guesswork, and excuses by brands.

Not here. 💚 There’s no butyloctyl salicylate in our formula and we’ve proven our UVA defense using in vivo testing like they do in Asia. Plus Photonic(TM) has had extensive dermatologist patch testing specifically on sensitive skin.

👉🏼 Read up, save, and send to a friend who wants to make sure to use safe sunscreen.
