13. My product has changed in consistency; why did that happen?

There are times when the consistency of product changes, but it does not mean the product has expired or gone bad. This is the expected behaviour of a natural product. 

As the products are crafted with skin-loving natural essential oils, preservative free natural ingredients, they may show a change in color or consistency when exposed to heat or fluctuation in temperature. Another point to note is that, it is formulated in Bangalore where it is nice and pleasant all-year long. But the product remains just as potent and effective as it was when you brought it.

If artificial or chemical stabilisers are added, the consistency does not change with change in ambient temperature, but we avoid using any preservative or chemical in our range of products.

Not just that, even if you order the same product again, you might find there is difference in texture, colour, consistency and may be the fragrance, because it’s all natural ingredients and they may vary from one batch to another.

If the product is within the expiration date it is mostly fine to use it. However, make sure that the product is stored in a cool dry place. Still if you have doubt, take up a patch test.

 14. How do I perform a patch test?

Usually patch tests are done to test a new product. But you can certainly test anything, as it’s very simple method. Take a small sample of the product in your palm and apply it on the inside of your wrists or inner arm (these areas have skin texture bit similar to facial skin) and leave it there for up to 24 hrs. If there is any irritation or redness or any roughness on skin, please do not use the product. However, if there is no reaction, you can safely use the product. 

15. What is the shelf life of any Satliva product?

Satliva believes in producing small batches of their product, fresh-on-order to ensure a consistent freshness and quality. This idea behind is to retain the properties of all the active ingredients in order to get desired performance.

Since products are preservative free and using all natural ingredients, they have small shelf life. Hence they are packed in small packaging with guidelines on how to use. It is mentioned on all products, for maximum benefits and freshness of all natural and organic products, they should be kept in a cool, dry place and used within 6 months of purchase. 

Please note that there are ways to improve shelf life by keeping products away from direct sunlight, at a stable room temperature, with caps and lids tightly closed, and by using clean fingers to apply. 

Refrigeration is not mandatory but it definitely helps to extend the life span of a product.

16. I don’t see Vitamin E as an ingredient in your products, Why?

Vitamin E is a wonderful antioxidant that reduces the possibility of oxidation and keep the natural products fresh. At Satliva, instead of adding vitamin E separately, we include a “whole ingredient” approach. Here we choose base oils that are naturally high in vitamin E (like argan oil and other plant oils). Therefore, they contribute to the overall vitamin E content of the blend while adding on other benefits.

17. Do I need to store Satliva products in the fridge? 

No, our products are stable to an ambient temperature of 30-35⁰ C. However, we do recommend that the products should not be exposed to direct sunlight or excessive heat.

Most of our serums are specifically formulated with stable oils, high in natural vitamin E and an ideal blend of essential fatty acids to protect the formula from oxidation and any damage, for at least 12-18 months. 

18. My product smells a bit different from last time, Why?

It is not possible to regulate the aroma of natural skin care products without the use of synthetic fragrances. There will be a slight change in smell from batch to batch or over time, but this is only a good news. It is a sign of reassurance that your product is truly natural. Natural ingredients are affected by varied farming practices, amount of sunshine, rains, growth and harvest etc. 

You notice a change in aroma mainly because the essential oil blends do change after a few months, but it does not mean that they are spoiled. That’s completely normal with chemical free product. 

19. What if I am not satisfied with my product or feel that it isn’t working for me?
