Our gels are made to fit into real life — a morning smoothie, a quiet spoon before work, a cozy mix into evening tea. Here's how to keep yours fresh and get the most out of every jar.
Before you open it
Our gels are vacuum-sealed with no synthetic preservatives. That's a good thing — but it means storage matters.
- Keep it in a cool, dry place (a pantry shelf is perfect)
- Shelf-stable for up to 12 months unopened
- Expiration date is printed on the lid
- The button on the lid should be fully down before you open it — that means the seal is intact
💡 When you open the jar for the first time, you should hear a pop. That's the vacuum seal releasing — exactly what you want to hear.
After you open it
- Refrigerate right away
- Enjoy within 3–4 weeks
- Keep it cold at all times once the seal is broken
- Use a clean, dry spoon each time — dipping a used or wet spoon back in can introduce bacteria and shorten its life
❄️ Think of it like fresh food, not a shelf-stable pill. Once it's open, the fridge is its home.
Arrived warm or looking liquid?
Totally normal — and totally safe. Because there are no synthetic thickeners, the gel can loosen when it warms up in transit.
The fix: pop the unopened jar in the fridge for 3–6 hours. It'll firm right back up to its smooth, scoopable texture. → More on this here
How to use it
More versatile than you'd think:
- 🥄 Straight from the spoon — 2 tablespoons, 1–3 times daily with a meal
- 🥤 Blended into smoothies, juices, or shakes — tasteless when mixed with fruit
- 🥣 Stirred into oatmeal, yogurt, or soup — it melts right in
- ☕ Mixed into herbal tea — a calm evening moment
- 🧖 As a face or hair mask — a few customers swear by it
💡 Take it with food rather than on an empty stomach — it's gentler on your stomach and helps your body absorb the fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K).
