Cold-Preserved Skincare

Most Skincare Lives Warm.
Ours Lives Cold

Warm warehouses and room-temperature shelves are the industry's default. We chose cold instead, 4°C from the first ingredient to the finished bottle.

Care for the ingredients you came for

When you choose a serum for its vitamin C or a cream for its peptides, those ingredients matter. So does the care they receive before you open the bottle.

We hold our ingredients and finished skincare at about 4°C in the studio. Cold preservation is part of the formula’s journey from the start, alongside small batches and careful ingredient selection.

A beauty fridge at home begins at the end of that journey. Our focus starts much earlier.

Mila Busch, founder and formulator of Wild Ice Botanicals
Thoughtful formulas, made by our founder

Freshness belongs in the formula.

Mila chooses the ingredients and makes the skincare in our own studio. Cold storage supports that hands-on approach, keeping freshness part of the work before a bottle ever leaves us.

Our Essentials Routine brings together a gentle cleanse, a refreshing toner, an oil-based vitamin C serum, and a peptide and ceramide cream. Each step has a clear job in caring for your skin.

Explore each product’s full ingredients and directions in the kit below.

Nourish With Nature's Nutrients

Botanical oils and extracts are central to Wild Ice. We pair them with carefully chosen ingredients such as peptides, ceramides and ferments, according to each formula’s purpose.

The routine is made in small weekly batches and kept refrigerated until dispatch. Shipping itself is not refrigerated. The cold care begins with the ingredients and continues through storage in our studio.

Freshness shapes the whole process: what we make, how much we make, and how we care for it before it reaches you.

"Life Changing"
I wanted to take a moment to say Thank you! Thank you for making beautiful products and thank you for not compromising your products just to get yourself in a store. Your products have transformed my skin! My skin has never looked better. To get me away from my products that I have been using for 15 years is BIG!

Morning and evening

Cleanse, tone, correct, and seal. Each step feeds the next, so the order matters more than the effort.

Dampen skin and massage 2 to 3 pumps in small circles for 60 seconds. Rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry.

Cool, not tight. This is the step that lifts the day off without stripping.

Mist 3 to 5 sprays over face and neck from 6 to 8 inches away. Let it air-dry for 30 seconds.

A refreshing layer between your cleanser and serum, with a light feel and a soft rose scent.

Shake gently, dispense 2 to 3 pumps, then press and smooth over face and neck. Allow 60 seconds to absorb.

Apply after Gaea’s Gala, before your moisturizer.

Smooth 2 to 3 pumps over face, neck, and décolletage with light upward strokes, patting gently around the eyes and lips.

The moisturizing finish to your daily routine.

Tip: the whole routine takes about three minutes. Short on time in the morning? The two steps that matter most are Cryo-C and D.B.T. Baba Yaga (steps 3 and 4).

The vitamin C step. An oil-based serum with lipid-soluble vitamin C (ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate), sea buckthorn, rosehip and plant squalane. Cryo-C helps brighten the look of uneven tone and dark spots while leaving skin soft and smooth.

The rich amber color comes from sea buckthorn. Use it after toner and before your moisturizer for a nourishing daily step.

The cleanse step. A cooling gel cleanser with niacinamide, gentle glucoside cleansers, glycerin and aloe. B-Meltee washes away the day and leaves skin feeling clean and refreshed.

Wintergreen and peppermint bring the cooling sensation. Massage onto damp skin, rinse with lukewarm water, then move on to your toner.

“my face has genuinely never felt so clean after washing”

★★★★★  Mary M.

50 ml / 1.7 fl oz  ·  pump  ·  lasts 8 to 10 weeks

The moisturizing step. A peptide and ceramide face cream for a soft, well-moisturized feel and smoother-looking fine lines. D.B.T. Baba Yaga combines peptides with Ceramide NP, AP and EOP, phytosphingosine and cholesterol.

Rose damascena distillate, Abyssinian oil and murumuru butter give this daily cream its nourishing character. Apply after your serum to finish the routine.

“the first cream that has felt hydrating without feeling heavy”

★★★★★  Sami J., verified buyer

50 ml / 1.7 fl oz  ·  pump  ·  lasts 8 to 10 weeks

The tone step. A light, refreshing mist with six ingredients: galactomyces ferment filtrate, rose damascena distillate, niacinamide, glycerin, lactic acid and lactobacillus ferment.

Gaea’s Gala refreshes skin after cleansing and adds a light layer of hydration before serum and cream. Its fine mist fits easily into both your morning and evening routine.

Frequently asked questions

No beauty fridge is needed for daily use. Aim to finish within about 90 days at room temperature, away from direct sunlight. Storage tips.

Questions about storing a particular bottle? Get in touch and we’ll help.

Our skincare stays refrigerated until dispatch and travels without refrigeration. Bring your package indoors when you can and follow the storage directions for each product.

If your order arrives damaged or you’re concerned about a bottle, contact us. Our shipping and returns page explains what to do next.

Freshness is a priority in how we make skincare. We keep ingredients and finished formulas refrigerated in our studio, and make small batches each week.

Customer experiences vary. Read the reviews and routine photos on this page to see what customers have shared, then give your own routine consistent use.

Follow each product’s directions, and use the How to use Wild Ice guide for the daily steps.

Yes. From your own portal you can pause, skip an order, change the frequency, reschedule the next delivery, or cancel, all in about a tap.

You can preview that portal from the offer above before you commit to anything. And when you want to explore more of the line, you can move to a custom box and watch the discount tier follow its value.

Because we tried. We were invited to pilot the brand at a major retail chain, before we were Wild Ice and under a different name, and we already chilled everything.

Our line was approved, we asked to showcase it in a chilled display at our own expense, and after management checked, the answer was a firm no. We decided not to compromise the products just to scale faster, and that was when we rebranded as Wild Ice, so cold would be permanently inseparable from the name.

If a product isn’t right for you, see our shipping and returns policy for the return window, refund amount and exclusions. You can also pause or cancel your subscription from your portal.

We sell direct, so there are no warehouses, no distributors, and no retail markup stacked onto the bottle. That money goes into ingredients and cold storage instead of shelf time. A high price is not a feature, a truism we’ve coined as a core part of our company culture. We hope you’ll agree.

Open “Your routine, step by step” in the offer section above. All four steps are there, with timing and the two-step short version for busy mornings.

I like the vitamin C but I can't say much for the other products I bought. A bit pricey for something that's not impressive

K
Karen W. (Pittsburgh, PA)
Smooth and creamy

Feels so good on my 70 year old skin . It wasn’t the kind of moisturizer scent I was used to , but now I like it very much . I do recommend this for how it makes my skin feel

Love this!!

I really love this lotion! I have had issues with breakouts on my face, and D.B.T Baba Yaga has helped. It makes my skin feel really soft and moisturized and it doesn’t leave me feeling oily or like it’s too heavy. I do wish the bottles were a little more helpful when it comes to taking the last bit off the bottom, if I was able to take the lid off or if the design was a little better, it would be perfect! That’s my only complaint.

Love this item

I love how this smells and feels on my face I cleans my face without stripping my skin. I would say try it for yourself and find out.

I love this stuff everything works for me from wild Ice. I wish the toner would come in a bigger bottle for this set. I love how soft my face feels with this paired with 7 winters. :)

I have very sensitive skin and I had zero adverse reaction. Very nice fine mist and my serum absorbed nicely after using. Ive been looking for a toner that wouldn't cause a reaction with my rosacea and this is it. Beautiful packaging. I will be a return customer and look forward to trying more products.

I don’t want give this 5stars because…

All the products I have tried here truly deserve 5stars but that just sometimes seems unrealistic. The reality it deserves it. This ‘moisturizer’ is outside of the norm for moisturizers. I find the texture to be the luxury of a serum and the finish like a spa mask. It delivers a layer of skin that melts without the disappearing act. My skin can literally live off this line. This moisturizer is beautiful on wet or dry skin. Amazing for my sensitive skin.

Tina Z. (West Hartford, CT)
Like no other. Why? Read on.

The truths that this brand enlightens us to in regard that products on a shelf or sold through 3rd party must meet heating requirements. The brilliance behind the making of this line is exceptional. So have been my results.
