There is a reason I chose real Frankincense resin for You’re Golden.

Frankincense resin contains naturally occurring compounds called boswellic acids, compounds found in the resin rather than the distilled essential oil.

And this is where things get particularly interesting for mature skin.

Research into topical boswellic acids on photoaged skin has reported improvements in the appearance of fine lines and tactile roughness, along with measured improvements in skin elasticity.

WHY THE RESIN?

Frankincense essential oil brings its own beautiful aromatic character.

The resin gives me the boswellic-acid story I specifically wanted for You’re Golden.

So I slowly infuse the Frankincense resin directly into the grass-fed tallow, allowing the resin to become part of the botanical foundation of the balm.

For skin carrying the visible signs of age, years outdoors, roughness and environmental exposure, that makes Frankincense resin a particularly exciting ingredient to build a mature-skin formula around.

And then there is the experience.

That unmistakable Frankie aroma.

Deep. Warm. Resinous. Ancient.

If you're a Frankincense lover like I am, you'll understand exactly why this ingredient became the heart of You’re Golden.

Real resin. Remarkable botanical chemistry. One very golden jar.

You’re Golden was formulated for mature skin carrying a lifetime of stories.

Sunshine. Weather. Dryness. Roughness. Visible scars. Changing texture.

Every ingredient was chosen with that skin in mind.

FRANKINCENSE RESIN

The star of You’re Golden.

Beyond its extraordinary resinous aroma, Frankincense resin contains boswellic acids, botanical compounds that have attracted research interest in photoaged skin, including the appearance of fine lines and roughness and measures of elasticity.

The real resin is slowly infused directly into the tallow, forming the botanical heart of the balm.

MYRRH RESIN

Rich, earthy Myrrh has been treasured in traditional skin preparations for centuries.

Its resin contains a complex mixture of naturally occurring plant compounds and brings another layer of botanical richness to a formula created for dry, rough, weather-exposed and mature skin.

And that deep, resinous aroma beneath the Frankincense?

That's Myrrh making herself known.

ROSEHIPS

Rosehips are beautiful companions for mature and weather-exposed skin.

Naturally rich in carotenoids, fatty acids and antioxidant plant compounds, they bring another dimension to the care of skin showing the visible effects of time and environmental exposure.

They also give You’re Golden that subtle, slightly tart, almost tea-like note hiding beneath the resins.

CASTOR OIL

Castor oil gives You’re Golden some of her unmistakable richness.

Naturally high in ricinoleic acid, this wonderfully substantial oil helps soften and condition dry skin while contributing to the balm's heavier, protective-feeling finish.

It also gives the formula beautiful slip for slowly massaging across areas of roughness and visible scarring.

GRASS-FED TALLOW + JOJOBA

Grass-fed tallow provides the rich emollient foundation, helping soften skin and reduce moisture loss.

Jojoba adds glide and conditioning while helping this resin-rich balm spread beautifully with only a tiny amount.

FRANKINCENSE RESIN + FRANKINCENSE SERRATA ESSENTIAL OIL
Frankincense is the unmistakable heart of You’re Golden.
The real Frankincense resin is slowly infused into the tallow, bringing the naturally occurring boswellic acids we explored above.
Frankincense serrata essential oil then builds upon that botanical foundation, bringing its distinctive warm, resinous aroma and completing the unmistakable Frankie character of this balm.

MYRRH RESIN + MYRRH ESSENTIAL OIL
Rich, earthy Myrrh has been treasured in traditional skin preparations for centuries.
The Myrrh resin infusion brings another layer of botanical richness to a formula created for dry, rough, weather-exposed and mature skin.
Myrrh essential oil deepens that character further, adding its warm, earthy resinous aroma beneath the Frankincense.
Together, the resin and essential oil give Myrrh a beautiful presence throughout the formula.

FOR SKIN WITH A STORY TO TELL

Together, these ingredients create one of CVO's richest balms.

Created especially for skin experiencing dryness, rough texture, weather exposure, visible scarring and the changes that come with its golden years.

Rich. Resinous. Restorative-feeling. Unmistakably You’re Golden.

You’re Golden begins long before the finished balm reaches the jar.

Frankincense resin, Myrrh resin and Rosehips are slowly infused into grass-fed Australian tallow, creating the rich botanical foundation that gives this balm its distinctive character.

This is where the magic happens.

The Frankincense and Myrrh bring their ancient resinous complexity, while Rosehips add another layer of botanical richness to the infusion.

Once the infusion is ready, I build the finished balm with jojoba and castor oil, then add Frankincense serrata and Myrrh essential oils to deepen that unmistakable resinous aroma.

A touch of golden mica completes the ritual.

The result is a balm that feels distinctly different from the rest of the CVO range.

Richer. Denser. More substantial on the skin.

Warm a tiny amount between your fingertips and it begins to soften, creating a beautifully rich layer that massages slowly across mature, dry, rough and weather-beaten skin.

And the scent tells you exactly what went into it.

Frankincense first.
Myrrh underneath.
That subtle Rosehip note lingering behind them.

Ancient resins, slowly infused into golden tallow.

That's the alchemy behind You’re Golden.

You’re Golden was created to give mature, dry, rough and weather-beaten skin the richness it craves.

This dense, resin-infused balm helps:

• Deeply nourish dry and depleted-feeling skin
• Soften rough, coarse and weathered texture
• Reduce moisture loss and support a supple, conditioned skin barrier
• Improve the feel of skin that has become drier with age
• Smooth and soften the appearance of fine, dry surface lines
• Comfort skin exposed to years of sun, wind and weather
• Condition areas of visible scarring and uneven-feeling texture
• Leave mature skin feeling softer, more supple and beautifully cared for
• Create a rich protective-feeling layer when your skin needs extra support

PARTICULARLY GLORIOUS OVERNIGHT

You’re Golden can be used morning, night or whenever your skin calls for her.

Her slightly heavier texture makes her especially beautiful as the final step in your evening skincare routine.

Massage a small amount slowly into your face, neck, décolletage or areas of rough, weathered or visibly scarred skin.

Let that rich combination of resin-infused tallow, castor oil and jojoba sit comfortably against the skin overnight.

By morning, skin feels soft, supple, conditioned and deeply nourished.

YOUR GOLDEN YEARS DESERVE GOLDEN SKINCARE

Skin changes.

Its needs change with it.

You’re Golden was created to meet mature skin with richness, nourishment and care.

Because your golden years deserve to feel every bit as glorious as they sound.

You’re Golden.

You’re Golden is rich, dense and beautifully concentrated.

Start with less than you think you need.

FOR YOUR FACE

Warm a pea-sized amount or less between your fingertips until the balm softens.

Massage slowly over your face, neck and décolletage, preferably while your skin is still slightly damp.

Give the balm a moment to settle into your skin before applying makeup or heading into your day.

BUILD YOUR GOLDEN RITUAL

You’re Golden is beautiful on her own, and women also love teaming her with Restorative Elixir and Bright Eyes for a complete CVO mature-skin ritual.

1. RESTORATIVE ELIXIR

Begin with Restorative Elixir on slightly damp skin.

Press a small amount across your face, neck and décolletage for a silky layer of botanical nourishment.

2. BRIGHT EYES

Follow with Bright Eyes around the delicate eye area.

Use a tiny amount and gently tap or smooth it around the orbital area.

3. YOU’RE GOLDEN

Finish by warming a tiny amount of You’re Golden between your fingertips and gently pressing or massaging it across your skin.

The rich resin-infused tallow becomes your final golden layer, helping seal in moisture and leaving mature skin feeling beautifully nourished and conditioned.

Restorative Elixir → Bright Eyes → You’re Golden.

Three formulas. Three different jobs.

One beautifully golden skincare ritual.

FOR ROUGH, WEATHERED OR VISIBLY SCARRED SKIN

Warm a small amount between your fingers and massage slowly into areas craving extra nourishment and conditioning.

Hands. Arms. Chest. Décolletage. Dry patches. Areas carrying visible scars or years of exposure to the elements.

Use whenever your skin asks for her.

FOR A RICH OVERNIGHT RITUAL

Apply You’re Golden as the final step in your evening skincare routine.

Warm a small amount between your fingertips and massage slowly across the skin.

Take your time.

Breathe in the Frankincense.

Find the deeper Myrrh beneath it.

Notice that faint, tart little Rosehip note lingering underneath.

Allow the richer resin-infused balm and castor oil to leave a substantial, protective-feeling layer across your skin overnight.

By morning, skin feels soft, supple, deeply conditioned and beautifully nourished.

REMEMBER: A LITTLE GOES A LONG WAY

If You’re Golden feels heavy or greasy, you've simply used too much.

Start tiny. Warm her well. Add more only where your skin needs it.

Morning. Night. Face. Body.

Your skin will tell you when it's time for a little more gold.

You’re Golden was created especially for mature skin and skin carrying the visible stories of life.

• Your skin has become drier, rougher or more demanding with age

THE SHORT VERSION?

Mature. Dry. Rough. Weathered. Visibly scarred. Frankie obsessed.

You're Golden was made with you in mind.

Your golden years deserve golden skincare.

I created You’re Golden because I wanted something truly special for skin entering its golden years.

As we age, our skin carries our story.

The sunshine we've lived in.
The weather we've worked through.
The scars we've collected.
The years we've laughed, travelled, worked, raised families and lived our lives.

I wanted to create a balm that celebrated that skin and gave it rich, concentrated, devoted care.

And I knew Frankincense had to be at the heart of it.

I've always been a Frankie lover.

That unmistakable ancient, resinous aroma gets me every time.

Once I began exploring the Frankincense resin itself and the fascinating boswellic acids held within it, I knew I wanted the real resin infused into the tallow.

Then came Myrrh.

Rosehips.

Castor oil.

Jojoba.

And those beautiful Frankincense serrata and Myrrh essential oils that make opening the jar such an experience.

The result became one of my richest balms.

Dense. Resinous. Golden.

Made for mature skin, rough skin, weather-beaten skin and skin carrying visible scars and stories.

You’re Golden is my celebration of growing older beautifully.

Of caring deeply for the skin you're living in now.

Of stepping into your golden years and treating them accordingly.

Because these years deserve to be golden.

And so does your skin.

• Always use clean, dry fingers when dipping into the jar
• Avoid leaving your balm somewhere excessively hot, such as inside a car
• During particularly hot or humid weather, you can keep You’re Golden in the fridge if you prefer a firmer texture

EXPECT A NATURAL BALM TO BEHAVE NATURALLY

You’re Golden may become softer in warm weather and firmer when temperatures drop.

The resin infusion and castor oil also give this balm a naturally richer, denser feel than many of the other CVO tallow balms.

Because each batch is handcrafted using botanical-infused tallow, you may notice subtle variations in colour, aroma or texture between batches.

That's part of the character of working with real resins, botanicals and natural fats.

Keep her cool. Keep her dry. Use her generously enough to love, sparingly enough to last.

Stay Golden.
