Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What makes Liven oils different from other oils on the market?

Our oils are made using seasonal, freshly harvested seeds, nuts, and herbs grown in Cyprus. We blend according to nature’s rhythm so each batch reflects the freshest ingredients available. We also use advanced extraction methods to retain the full potency of each raw material, without over-processing or dilution.

Are your oils organic?

While not all of our ingredients are certified organic, we work with local growers who use low-intervention and sustainable farming practices. Many of our ingredients come from wild or traditionally cultivated sources, where certification isn't common but quality and purity are exceptional.

Do you use any additives or preservatives?

No. All of our products are free from synthetic additives, preservatives, fillers, or artificial fragrances. What you get is pure plant power—nothing more, nothing less.

What is upcycled material, and why do you use it?

Upcycled materials are high-quality ingredients that are typically discarded during food production (like seeds from juice pressing). We rescue these overlooked components and give them new life, transforming waste into rich, nourishing oils. It’s good for your skin—and for the planet.

Can I eat your oils, or are they just for skincare?

Most of our oils are food-grade and suitable for both culinary and cosmetic use. If a product is edible, it will be clearly labeled. Please always read the label or product description to know how each oil is intended to be used.

Why does the oil’s color or scent vary from batch to batch?

Because we follow a seasonal approach and never standardize or chemically alter our products, natural variations in color, aroma, and texture are part of the experience. These changes reflect nature’s cycles and the unique character of each harvest.

How should I store your oils?

Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Some of our oils are more delicate and benefit from refrigeration after opening—check the label for specific storage advice.

Are your products vegan and cruelty-free?

Most of our products are 100% vegan and cruelty-free. We never test on animals. The only non vegan product is the beeswax Ointmen.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes, we currently ship worldwide. Shipping costs and delivery times vary depending on your location. Check our Shipping & Returns page for more details.
