Are OM Botanical products cruelty-free?

Yes. We’re passionate about animal welfare and firmly oppose animal testing. All our products are 100% cruelty-free and vegan. We also carefully source our ingredients from suppliers who share our strict ethical standards - values upheld by our vegan founder. With us, you can feel good about skincare that’s kind to animals and the planet.

Are OM Botanical products safe for kids?

Absolutely! Our products are made with natural, unprocessed ingredients and are free from harmful chemicals, dyes, fillers, and synthetic fragrances. This makes them gentle and safe for kids' delicate skin. Because we believe skincare should be as kind and nurturing as nature itself, our formulations are perfect for the whole family - little ones included!

Are OM Botanical products microbiome friendly?

Of course. Unlike chemical laden mainstream beauty products that destroy your healthy microbiome and cause chemical induced dysbiosis, OM Botanical products are gentle on your beneficial microbiome and made with plant-based prebiotics for them to flourish in. Healthy microbiome is your first defence against external pathogens and related skin conditions.

Why aren’t OM Botanical products white, like other skin care products?

Most natural ingredients, like unrefined cold-pressed oils, herbs, and botanical extracts, aren’t white. At OM Botanical, we embrace nature’s authentic beauty, which means no chemical processing, bleaching, or artificial additives like dyes, fillers, or perfumes. The natural tints and earthy fragrances of our products reflect the purity and integrity of our ingredients. Celebrate the beauty of skincare that stays true to its roots - naturally vibrant and genuinely effective!

Where are OM Botanical products made?

We proudly make all our products in the USA! Unlike many skin care brands that rely on mass production in overseas factories, we formulate and manufacture everything in our own facility in North Carolina. Each product is hand-crafted in small batches, which means you may notice slight variations from time to time. But rest assured, the quality, purity, and effectiveness of our products remain our top priority.

How long should I use OM Botanical products before I see results?

Because our products are made with natural, full-spectrum botanical ingredients, your skin may need a little time to detox and adjust. With some products, like our One Step Face Cleanser, you’ll notice improvements right away. However, for most of our skincare items, it typically takes about 2–4 weeks of consistent use to see the full benefits. Patience pays off when it comes to truly natural, skin-loving care!

From where do you source your ingredients?

We source our ingredients from all over the world, ensuring we find the very best nature has to offer. For instance, our ayurvedic ingredients come from 3-farm cooperative in Indore, India. This partnership not only supports traditional farming practices but ensures that our ingredients are fresh, potent, and aligned with Ayurvedic principles. We also seek out oils, botanicals, and extracts from regions renowned for their excellence - like unrefined Shea butter from Africa, sake kasu (rice extract) from Asia, and magnesium chloride from the Dead Sea. Every step of our sourcing process reflects our commitment to sustainability, ethical partnerships, and delivering skincare that’s both effective and respectful to the planet.

Best Natural Face Creams for Wrinkles: 6 Top Picks

Wrinkles don’t have to be a permanent sentence. You can smooth lines with clean, plant‑based creams that respect your skin’s natural balance. Below are six natural face creams that actually deliver on the promise of softer, younger‑looking skin.

1. OM Botanical Plant-based Ayurvedic Skincare (Our Top Pick) , Whole‑food, microbiome‑friendly cream

OM Botanical Moisturizer blends whole‑plant extracts, cold‑pressed oils, and a tiny dose of non‑nano zinc oxide for SPF. The formula is food‑grade, so it feels safe enough to eat , a claim backed by the brand’s own ingredient list.

The cream supports the skin’s microbiome by avoiding harsh preservatives and using fermented aloe as a prebiotic. That makes it a rare combo of microbiome‑friendly and Ayurvedic‑focused. It’s especially good for sensitive or mature skin that reacts to synthetic actives.

Because it’s a light, non‑greasy lotion, it layers well under sunscreen or makeup. The only caveat is that the SPF portion is modest (SPF 15), so you’ll still need a dedicated sunscreen for prolonged sun exposure.

Key Takeaway: A food‑grade, microbiome‑friendly cream can smooth lines without compromising skin health.

For a day‑time boost, pair it with Young & Bright Peptide Cream, which adds plant peptides for extra collagen support.

2. Bakuchiol Serum , Plant‑based retinol alternative for smooth lines

Bakuchiol is a plant‑derived cousin of retinol that works without the typical redness or peeling. OM Botanical’s bakuchiol serum draws its actives from Psoralea corylifolia, a herb used in Ayurveda for centuries.

Clinical research shows bakuchiol stimulates collagen similarly to retinol but with far less irritation.

The serum is light enough for daily use, morning and night, and it mixes well with any moisturizer. It does contain a small amount of natural fragrance, which may bother ultra‑sensitive noses.

For a budget‑friendly option, look at the Bakuchiol Serum product page for pricing and refill details.

3. Vitamin C Serum , Antioxidant boost to brighten and firm

Vitamin C fights free radicals, brightens dull skin, and helps the skin make new collagen. This serum combines pure ascorbic acid with ferulic acid and a hint of botanical extracts for stability.

Users report a noticeable glow after two weeks of consistent use. The formula avoids synthetic stabilizers, relying on natural antioxidants to keep the vitamin C active.

One downside is that the serum is slightly acidic (pH 3.5), so it can sting if you have compromised barrier. Follow with a moisturizer that contains soothing aloe or centella.

Check out the Skin Glow page for a complementary brightening routine that pairs well with this serum.

4. Tremella Mushroom Serum , Hydrating powerhouse for plump skin

Tremella mushroom can hold up to 500 times its weight in water, giving more hydration than many synthetic humectants. The serum is lightweight, fast‑absorbing, and packed with probiotics that feed good skin microbes.

Regular use helps fine lines look less deep because the skin stays plump and elastic. It also supplies B vitamins that aid cell turnover.

The only limitation is the faint mushroom scent, which some people find off‑putting.

Pro Tip: Apply a few drops to damp skin, then seal with a cream that contains ceramides for maximum moisture lock‑in.

5. Antioxidant Night Oil , Overnight repair with adaptogenic herbs

This night oil mixes adaptogenic herbs like ashwagandha with antioxidant‑rich oils such as rosehip and squalane. The blend works while you sleep, supporting collagen synthesis and reducing oxidative stress.

The oil feels silky, not greasy, and it absorbs in about a minute. It’s formulated without synthetic fragrance, which keeps the scent natural and mild.

People with very oily skin may find it a bit heavy, so a pea‑size amount is enough for the whole face.

For a quick reference on how night oils support the skin barrier, consult reputable sources on the skin microbiome, which explain why gentle, oil‑based products can be beneficial.

6. Advanced Age Defying Set for 50s+ , Complete routine for mature skin

The set bundles a cleanser, serum, moisturizer, and night oil, all designed for skin over 50. Each product uses whole‑plant extracts and avoids harsh chemicals, creating a cohesive routine.

Key actives include bakuchiol, vitamin C, and tremella mushroom, giving you antioxidant protection, collagen support, and deep hydration in one package.

The set’s price point is higher than buying single items, but the convenience of a matched system can simplify your regimen.

If you prefer to mix and match, start with the Face Moisturizers collection to find a base that fits your texture preference.
