FAQ

What is Céleste du Vide?

Céleste du Vide is a luxury oil blend crafted for skin that reacts, glows, and breathes. Made from 100% natural, non-synthetic, endocrine-safe botanicals, it nourishes the skin barrier without parabens, phthalates, silicones, or synthetic fragrance.

Is Céleste a tanning oil or a body oil?

Both. Céleste was formulated as a skin-enhancing oil ideal for pre- and post-sun rituals, but it’s also a daily luxury. It glides like silk, absorbs like a serum, and leaves behind a luminous, bronzed sheen—without clogging pores or relying on artificial shimmer.

Is it safe for autoimmune or sensitive skin?

Yes. Céleste was born from necessity—by a woman with autoimmune disease and highly reactive skin. Every ingredient was chosen for compatibility with sensitive and immune-prone systems. While individual reactions vary, there are no synthetic fragrances, no drying alcohols, and no endocrine-disruptive compounds in our formula.

Does Céleste contain SPF or sun protection?

No. While some of our oils are traditionally used in sun care (like raspberry seed, buriti, and carrot seed oils), Céleste does not contain FDA-approved sunscreen agents. We do not make any SPF or sun protection claims. Please pair it with your preferred sunscreen when needed.

Will it stain clothes or swimwear?

Céleste contains deeply pigmented oils like buriti and sea buckthorn that deliver a natural golden tint. Allow the oil to absorb for several minutes before dressing. While staining is unlikely on most fabrics, we recommend avoiding contact with light-colored or delicate garments until fully absorbed.

Can I use Céleste on my face or hair?

Yes. Our formula is multi-use and non-comedogenic for most skin types. Use sparingly as a facial glow oil or run a few drops through damp hair to tame frizz and add subtle shine. Always patch test first if your skin is especially reactive.

What does it smell like?

Céleste’s scent is unlike synthetic perfumes. The scent is creamy, warm, and sunlit. It’s a soft veil of of vanilla, pistachio, and amber melt into the skin, leaving behind a soft trail that’s intimate, not loud. It doesn’t wear like perfume—it lingers like memory.

Is it safe for use in the sun or on the beach?

Céleste was made to complement sun rituals but is not a sunscreen. We avoid phototoxic essential oils and synthetic shimmer that can react in sunlight. Our formula is biodegradable and reef-safe, making it suitable for ocean dips—but always reapply after swimming.

Is Céleste vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes. Céleste is 100% vegan and never tested on animals. We use plant-based oils, natural CO₂ extractions, and biodegradable fragrance molecules sourced responsibly.

Why is it different from other “clean” beauty oils?

“Clean” has become a loophole. Many brands still use synthetic fragrance blends, PEGs, and microplastic-based shimmer. Céleste doesn’t. We disclose every ingredient. We don’t greenwash. And we don’t compromise, ever.
