Why choose skincare preserved with cold?

- It's simple -

You keep your healthiest foods here...

...because cold keeps natural ingredients fresh.

HOW IT WORKS

Cold preserves by gently inhibiting all three types of breakdown:

  • REDOX REACTIONS: The transfer of electrons between molecules.

    #1 Redox Reactions

    The transfer of electrons between two or more atoms

  • ENZYMATIC ACTIVITY: The molecular breakdown catalyzed by natural enzymes present in plant oils.

    #2 Enzymatic Activity

    Molecular breakdown catalyzed by natural enzymes from plant oils

  • BACTERIAL DIGESTION: When bacteria “eat” ingredients and produce waste.

    #3 Bacterial Digestion

    When bacteria “eat” ingredients and produce waste

Beauty industry preservatives inhibit only #3: Bacterial Digestion

It's why we chill.

✔ Avoid harsh chemical preservatives

✔ Prevent new compounds from forming into sensitizers

✔ Preserve delicate actives such as peptides and ceramides from decay

✔ Keep anti-oxidants from oxidizing

Fresh produce is healthy produce -- the same holds true for skincare.

Mini-fridge for skin-care products.

It's also why others are selling these.

Beauty fridges for skincare collections are all the rage.

They validate what we all already know: that there is no fresh without cold. And there is no potency without fresh.

As ingredients break down they degrade and form unintended compounds, including harmful sensitizers.

A clean formula not chilled isn’t clean for long.

But while mini-fridges are cool, they can't undo decomposition. Most product breakdown occurs in:

  • RETAIL: Products sit on shelving at room temp (or worse), decomposing for months to years.

    Retail

    Products sit on display at room temperature (or warmer), decomposing for months, and often years.

  • WARE HOUSING

    Warehousing

    Example: Fulfillment by Amazon requires sellers agree that products may sit in 155°F heat indefinitely.

  • FREIGHT: Shipping containers commonly used to cross-level inventory reach temps 30 °F over ambient.

    Freight

    Shipping containers and truck beds can reach temps well over 30°F hotter than the outdoor air.

We're chilled. From start to finish.

Little monuments to adorn your vanity -

In a world of generic round glass or leeching plastic containers, we dare to do different.

Common Questions

  • Stylized thermometer icon.

    Do I need to refrigerate?

    Only if you won't begin using your products when they arrive. Used as described, Wild Ice products will run out after about 90 days of use. Damaging decomposition takes longer.

  • Stylized airplane icon.

    Yes! Whether you discover Wild Ice while home or away, we hope you will take us with you on your journey. All of our products are within the TSA's boarding limit for carry-on liquids.
