Founded by sisters. One with a skincare problem, and one determined to find a solution.
Driven by my sister Jenny's struggle with sensitive skin, I studied to become a certified Cosmetic Chemist while balancing a full-time job.
Together, we delved into the wonders of natural ingredients, dedicating our nights and weekends to research. After extensive experimentation, we crafted 8 specialized oil blends: clarifying, calming, anti-aging face oils, a body oil, and a hair oil.
The outcome was remarkable. Jenny's skin was transformed! Gone were the days of irritation and discomfort. Now, her skin is glowing and radiant as ever. - Joyce
Whether you're seeking the missing link to complete your skincare routine or the essential one-step solution for simplicity, Velvette has crafted the ideal oil blends for your skin type, that gives you the perfect finished look.
Forming a protective shield against moisture loss, Velvette‘s oils preserve your skin's natural moisture and amplify the benefits of other skincare ingredients, ensuring your skin stays healthy and radiant all day long.
Jenny's super-sensitive, reactive skin inspired Joyce to study to become a fully certified Cosmetic Chemist, leading us to create specialized plant oil blends that transformed her skin from irritated to glowing.
Nearly 7 years later, our all-natural oil blends have become a staple in thousands of skincare routines. Curious about our journey? Click below to learn more.
Thank you for creating these amazing products! I love them on their own or as a compliment with other moisturizer. I get many compliments on my skin and at 60 I am often told I am in my forties!! Bonus!!! Highly recommend!
This kit is a must for fussy skin that tends to oily. I also use it on my special needs son's bacne. I find it calming on rosacea too even though there's another oil called Calming. I've had many gua sha from massage therapists who bring them from China, and this one is very impressive. You feel it working even with the lightest pressure as the stone has strong energy. The video is a good accompaniment as it's paced slowly. I wish I could say more but I lost it after the first use 😕.
It's hard to order online and be disappointed with a new product, so this is a perfect way to spend a week or so sampling the different oils. The Velvette young woman on the chat box was very helpful with answering questions and helped me choose. The oils are EXQUISITE. I usually mix my own oils, but I thought I'd try a cosmetic scientist's creation this time.
If you like high end skin care and are wary of fillers, emollients and silicones, try this and you'll have calm and happy skin that gets brighter and smoother over time. And don't miss out on the hair oil, which doesn't weight even fine hair down.
This oil is amazing. My skin soaks it up. After 3 weeks using this oil my skin is noticeably smoother and velvet soft. I will be re ordering this product.
Love this oil. It is very light and absorbs so quickly. After two weeks I have noticed the redness from my rosacea lessening. Definitely will purchase again.
I really like this oil, it has worked well for my 51 year old hormonal skin. I wanted a more natural approach to my skin care and I can honestly say I have noticed a distinct overall improvement in tone and texture since I switched from a retinol based product. I do think it is a little expensive, but I have taken advantage of the sales offered which makes it more affordable. I am on my third bottle and don’t see myself switching back. Keep up the great work Joyce & Jenny.
What a great idea to try all these oils first. I have dry skin and was so impressed with the day and night oil for aging skin that I bought the large bottles. LOVE them, and the service is amazing - one very happy customer here.... Thank you,
Lately, my face has started to itch.
Possibly due to dehydration caused by some meds.
I added a few drops of your wonderful Calming oil to my usual skincare.
What a relief!
My skin is not oily.
It's getting velvety.
I bought a kit for my sister overseas.
Thank you for a wonderful product
Yesterday was hair washing day so I tested the Premium Hair OIl. I applied the Hair Oil as a mask and left it on while I vacuumed before washing my hair. It absorbed easily. Then I applied the oil after washing as a conditioner. My hair feels so nice today!!! It’s really soft and I have less wild flyaways. It doesn't leave an oily feel. I might be crazy, but I almost think I see a little bit of shine added here and there. My extremely dry, unruly, curly, frizzled hair doesn’t know the meaning of shine, so maybe I really am crazy. My white hair streak is looking glowy. Just think what repeated use will yield! I should also mention that I get reactions to most products on the market, and I had no problem with the Premium Hair Oil. Your oils have such a luxurious feel. I love them all! I'm pleased to purchase from these two female founders who provide exceptional customer support and high-quality, effective products that don't irritate. I'm so glad I took a chance and tried their products.
I have been using Velvette face oil for almost 4 years now, it’s smells amazing, and absorbs right into the skin. Gives your skin the youthful beautiful glow.
I loved the sample kit. It gave me a chance to feel and smell the products and decide which ones I preferred. I have since purchased the Body Oil and a Night oil for my face. I am sensitive to smells, but the light scent of the various oils is not bothersome at all. I was also surprised/pleased at how little oil it takes once it warms up on your skin.
Bought these with curiosity and wanted see if I can like them. As mentioned in other comments, the quantity is not enough to see a big difference, but enough to know that I love the sensation on my skin and already feel my skin less dry or sensitive. I have ordered the anti-aging in travel size for my travel and feel confident that I will probably order also the others in a near future.
Their customers service is incredible! The owners make all their possible to meet and exceed the expectations of their clients. This is a value really important currently for company.
J'ai acheté ces produits avec curiosité et pour vérifier si j’étais pour les aimer. Comme déjà mentionné dans d'autres commentaires, la quantité n'est pas suffisante pour voir une grande différence, mais j'ai aimé la sensation sur ma peau et déjà ressenti que ma peau est moins sèche. J'ai commandé les formats d'anti-âge en format voyage pour mon plus récent voyage et je vais probablement aussi commander les autres produits dans un avenir proche.
Leur service à la clientèle est incroyable. Les propriétaires font tout en leur possible pour répondre aux besoins de leurs clients et même les dépasser. C’est une valeur très importante de nos jours.

Not at all. At Velvette, we researched, analyzed, and tested over 200 different plant oils to find perfect combinations that absorbed quickly and left the skin feeling velvety soft.
One drop of oil is just as, or even more moisturizing, than one pump of cream! Think of how much you'd save on your skincare if you switched to oils instead!
Creams typically consist of 60-70% water, 5-10% oils, and numerous other ingredients in trace amounts. Your skin produces oil for moisture and wants more of the right oil. Why are you giving it 40 ingredients in your face cream instead?
Because creams are mostly water, the water content delivered by the cream initially would have provided some hydration to the skin, but evaporates quickly, which is why you'd have to reapply cream over and over throughout the day. However, oils don't need to be reapplied as frequently since they resist evaporation, and will act as a breathable film to help seal in moisture, and protect your skin from the elements!

We have three different types of face oils: Clarifying, Calming & Anti-Aging.
Clarifying: For oily or combination skin types looking to balance and regulate their sebum production.
Calming: For dry or sensitive skin types to soothe inflammation, irritation and skin dryness.
Anti-Aging: For dehydrated skin types showing signs of aging, our richest, youth preserving series aims to nourish and protect the skin free free radicals.
When designing Velvette's face oils, we made sure to only use ingredients that were low on the comedogenic scale - Meaning they are unlikely to clog your pores! In fact, our Clarifying Face Oil series contain ingredients known to regulate and balance your skin's sebum, and were created specifically for those with oily, blemish prone skin.
Your skin produces different levels of oil (sebum) throughout the day, with sebum levels peaking during the mid-day. Your skin cells also regenerate (cell mitosis) at different rates throughout the day, with the peak around nighttime during sleep.
We have optimized our oils to match your differing sebum levels by creating a lighter formula for the daytime, and a richer formula at night. During the day, we've created an oil that blends well with your existing sebum, whereas at night, an oil that works to replenish lost sebum!
Our daytime oil contains ingredients that provide more barrier functions to help protect your skin from the effects of the elements, whereas our nighttime oil contains powerful and effective extracts and ingredients that take advantage of your skin's peak repair and recovery period at night.
Our all-natural oil blends contain only pure, luxurious, premium-grade plant oils, vitamin E, and trace essential oils. There are no synthetic perfumes, drying alcohols, harsh ingredients, or known irritants used in any of our products.
Our gentle oils have been the favorites of many customers with sensitive skin!
All of our oils are formulated only using natural or naturally derived ingredients! Our flagship oil blends are made of only the most luxurious, premium organic plant oils in high ratios not found in most other skincare products on the market. Our ingredients all comply with ECOCERT's standard on natural ingredients.
Our oils feature subtle scents that are not overpowering or artificial smelling.
We do not use any synthetic fragrances in our products. We use small quantities of essential oils in our formulations, which provide both therapeutic benefits and a pleasant aroma. Each oil blend has been formulated by a certified Cosmetic Chemist, and all essential oils used are within safety limits. If you have any known sensitivities, please review our ingredients list and perform a patch test before use.
Our oils absorbs quickly, and only a small amount is needed per application! As long as you apply just enough for your skin or hair and let it absorb properly, the oil should not stain your clothes or bedding.
All of our face, body and hair oils are proudly made in Canada. Our beauty tools, such as our Gua Sha for Facial Massage, are sourced from China.
Meticulously Designed: Through extensive research and testing of over 200 different plant oils, Co-founders Joyce, a certified Cosmetic Chemist, and her sister Jenny have created powerful blends of face oils that leave your skin healthy and glowing.
Non-Greasy & Quick-Absorbing: Unlike other oils on the market which feel greasy and sticky, ours leaves you feeling velvety soft! Try and feel the difference for yourself!
Customized & Specialized: Through a deep understanding of each plant oil's unique properties and textures, we've created six different blends of oils for the face, one for the body, and one for hair! Each of our oil blends features distinctly different plant oils, and works together to deliver effective results!
