wildcraft
Wildcraft is a Canadian skincare line built around plant actives — cold-pressed oils, botanical extracts, vitamin C and a bio-retinol — across a range that covers a whole routine rather than one hero product.
Everything here is grouped by step: cleansers and makeup remover, toners, face and eye serums, creams, and body cream and oil.
More about wildcraft
How do I build a Wildcraft routine?
Wildcraft names its products by what they do rather than by line, so the routine reads in order once you know the steps. Thinnest textures go on first, richest last.
| Step | Products |
|---|---|
| 1. Cleanse | WASH gel, WASH oil, WASH cream, CLEANSE makeup remover |
| 2. Tone | BALANCE, CLARIFY |
| 3. Treat | BRIGHTEN, REFINE, REGENERATE, REVIVE |
| 4. Moisturise | CLARIFY cream, CALM, RESTORE |
| 5. Eyes | RENEW eye serum, PURE RADIANCE eye cream |
Each step is set out in full, with the products that belong to it, on the Wildcraft routine page.
Which cleanser suits my skin?
There are three, and they are genuinely different rather than three scents of the same thing. The gel cleanser with yuzu and white tea is the brightening one and the most standard starting point. The oil cleanser with tea tree and marshmallow suits congested or breakout-prone skin and removes makeup as it goes. The cream cleanser with chamomile and kaolin is the gentlest, for dry or reactive skin.
The separate CLEANSE makeup remover is for eye makeup and anything stubborn, used before whichever cleanser you settle on.
Which serum does what?
- BRIGHTEN — vitamin C, for dullness and uneven tone
- REVIVE — bio-retinol, the one for texture and fine lines
- REGENERATE and REFINE — daily treatment serums
- RENEW — the eye version, for the thinner skin around the eye
Can I use vitamin C and retinol together?
You can use both, but not in the same application. The usual approach is vitamin C in the morning and the bio-retinol at night, which keeps them apart and puts the antioxidant where daylight makes it most useful.
Introduce a retinol slowly — two or three nights a week to begin with, building up if your skin stays comfortable. If you are pregnant, or using prescription retinoids or acne treatment, check with your doctor or dermatologist before adding one.
Beyond the face
The range carries into body care as well: ILLUMINATE body cream in frankincense and geranium or lemongrass and sunflower, the LUXE body oil with camellia and evening primrose, and two natural deodorants.
