We always recommend massaging fresh, nourishing plant oils and butters directly into freshly cleansed, still-wet skin to allow for the deepest possible absorption and assimilation of both fat-soluble and water-soluble nutrients. Start by splashing at the sink until you feel your skin soften under your fingertips, or rinse in a steamy shower before feeding the trio directly into your steam-softened skin for the very best results. 

Of course, both our moisturizers are gorgeous on dry skin if desired, too, and The Blue Cocoon is our favorite for supporting the delicate eye area and lips.

Yes! On most days I personally use both, layering or blending together for the ultimate nutritive cocktail. 

I let The Youth Dew lead for daytime and The Blue Cocoon for the evening, adjusting ratios of both to suit my skin’s evolving needs each day.

The Youth Dew is wonderful for graceful aging protection, balancing oil production, and loading up on antioxidants and vitamins. It delivers immediate brightness and a serious glow boost.

The Blue Cocoon is my first choice for softening and soothing sensitive skin, bringing palpable relief to dry, depleted, and irritated complexions. It’s especially calming and cooling—wonderful for stressed, heated, and redness-prone skin.  

Both The Blue Cocoon and The Youth Dew are stars all on their own and either can be used as a primary moisturizer for all skin types. Together, their impact is amplified, making this duo a foundational staple in our ritual. 

The Jasmine Garden works as a penetration enhancer for The Youth Dew and The Blue Cocoon, amplifying their results and allowing for the assimilation of both fat and water-soluble nutrients.

Pharmaceutical-grade colloidal silver from Spain and organic rose cellular water from Bulgaria marry with two varieties of jasmine to deliver cooling, soothing, ultra-hydrating relief to acne-prone, sensitive, and easily irritated skin.

The Jasmine Garden’s unique formula adds just a touch of light moisture while infusing skin with antioxidant protection, restoring elasticity and soothing heat, redness, and dry conditions. It’s also fabulous for oily and imbalanced complexions.

The Hydration Hero Trio can replace all other serums, creams, lotions, balms, and oils or be layered together with other favorites. For personalized guidance, connect with us anytime atcare@maylindstrom.com.

Unlike occlusive, wax-based balms, The Blue Cocoon’s fresh formula is designed to feed directly into wet skin morning and night, immediately following cleansing (skipping a towel completely) — actively addressing dryness, heat, redness, sensitivity, and discomfort. This is where it can really do its best work, unhindered by anything else between it and your precious organ.

Of course, it’s gorgeous as a last step if desired, too, and this is all I reach for for the eye area and lips. Send us a note to care@maylindstrom.com if we can help you shape the most resonant routine for your unique skin.

You really can’t mess it up.

 My rule of thumb is to start with whatever your skin is actively needing most:

Feeling red, sensitive, dehydrated?
Go with The Blue Cocoon.

Feeling oily, congested, imbalanced, breaking out,
or noticing more prominent lines today?
Make The Youth Dew your star.

You can use one or the other, together or separately, layered or blended.

I keep my sensitive skin ritual streamlined with just these two (plus The Jasmine Garden), but we play nice with any other skin favorites you personally love, too.
