Odaja Alchemy

Odaja for dark skin tones, is an intensely nourishing, brightening, and hydrating formula loaded with highly active plants and raw superfoods. Shea Nut, Cocoa, and Coconut Butters keep skin plump and dewy along with skin-replenishing Manjistha and Marshmallow root. Formulated with a focus on brightening and repairing, this performance driven formula is infused with an Antioxidant Complex of Chai Tea, Moringa, Amla, and Chaga Mushroom expertly combined with an Anti-inflammatory Elixir of Plantain, Ashwaganda, and Suma root.

Usage/Application

Eyes for Odaja, is an intensely nourishing and hydrating whipped cream serum. Take a pea sized portion of the concentrate and melt between finger tips. Apply to the entire eye area by massaging in circular motions for a few minutes. Massaging the eye area encourages lymphatic drainage, blood flow, circulation, and cellular oxygenation which minimizes puffiness, wrinkles, fine lines, and dark shadows. This is not your typical eye cream, and we do not believe in the 'dab-and-tap' methodology. Our Eye formula was designed to be massaged into the skin. No need to worry about getting too close to the eyes with this rich cream, since it is formulated with premium food-grade ingredients. It will NOT sting if it gets in your eyes, like other formulas.

Use morning and night. Eyes offers an anti-pollution barrier and contains natural sun protection. This all-in-one product can also be used as an intensive night therapy moisture mask on the entire face, neck, and lips.

Eyes will offer on average 90-120 applications.

Benefits

Formulated to offer performance driven results, PH balanced and oxygenated, this superior hydrating formula offers a pollution barrier and natural sun protection to inhibit oxidative stress and environmental damage. Improves skins elasticity, reduces the appearance of dark shadows and fine lines, visibly evens skin tone, reduces puffiness, hyperpigmentation and inflammation.

Fortified with multi-layered antioxidants, vitamins, and vital nutrients. The Odaja superfood complex is designed to stimulate cell renewal, combat free radical damage, inhibit oxidative stress, and reenergize and awaken tired, aging skin.

Odaja Skin Personality

Dark skin tones contain larger and more numerous fibroblasts, smaller collagen fibre bundles, and more macrophages. The dermis is thicker and more compact in dark skin with the thickness being proportional to the degree of pigmentation. The photo-protective effects of melanin and a thicker and more compact dermis in dark skin tones, minimizes severity of the signs of aging such as formation of crow's feet and wrinkles.

Since inflammation and hyperpigmentation are the main concerns of darker skin, ODAJA is formulated with a focus on brightening and anti-inflammatory ingredients.

Though dark skin has a stronger barrier it has lower ceramide levels, so we have added skin-replenishing ingredients to ODAJA to keep dark skin healthy and prevent moisture loss.

This cream felt luxurious from the moment I opened it!

The packaging is beautiful and unique, and it was just like opening a gift. The matte shades of charcoal give off a chic natural vibe, and the jar itself is carved stone and very heavy with a magnetic lid. This jar is sleek, sexy, earthy, and totally worthy of display. The cream itself is thick and looks textured, and if I look closely, I can see tiny specks, which made me nervous. I rubbed a bit between my fingers, and couldn't feel anything, so I went for it. The cream isn't gritty or textured in the least, and it feels fabulous. It's more the texture of whipped butter than a lotion or serum. A tiny amount is all it takes, and I love that it's made to rub in instead of patting, because I feel the massage really gets the blood flowing and adds a soothing element to my skincare routine. So far, I haven't seen a profound lightening of my dark circles, but I do see some lightening in the darkest area near my tear ducts, so I feel it is promising with continued use.

Odaja has been a breath of fresh air!

Virginia Stone's Odaja for eyes, has been a breath of fresh air for my tired dark circles, and fatigued eyes! My eyes are in their fifties, not old by any means, just a little tired, pollution weary, and could use a little help. Virginia Stone comes out with a line of eye cream for different skin tones that helps with all that. Since using Odaja my skin around my eyes is brighter, softer, they look less tired, they feel less tired, the skin looks plumper, the fine lines seem like they are dissipating, and the dark circles are lightening. I feel better every time I look in the mirror now! It smells great too. I use it on my whole face now, why should my eyes have all the fun?

This is a great product!

It's light and doesn't have a thick clumpy feel. Since I've been using it, I've noticed a big difference in my complexion around my eyes. Would definitely recommend to others.
