If you’ve been here for a while, you already know we’re obsessed with the desert.

There’s something poetic about how desert plants survive. They don’t just find water - they engineer it, store it, and protect it. And the same philosophy has quietly shaped some of our favorite skincare. These are formulas inspired by cactus, aloe, and other desert botanicals - products that thrive where nothing should, and somehow leave you glowing.

Here’s what’s currently living on our “Desert Shelf.”

760 SKIN - Dew or Dry Moisturizer

We couldn’t start anywhere else. Dew or Dry is our version of desert logic in a jar - barrier-repairing, glow-giving, and endlessly balancing. It’s the kind of moisturizer that just knows what your skin needs.
Somehow it’s rich enough for dry heat but light enough for everyday wear. It’s the perfect desert multitasker!

The formula was built to mimic how desert plants adapt - holding hydration when it’s scarce, releasing it when needed. It’s basically skincare’s version of a cactus.

760 SKIN - Sunkiss Desert Butter Balm

This one lives in every bag, every pocket, every bathroom counter. Sunkiss is a buttery balm that hydrates, seals, and softens lips.

It’s the ultimate little desert companion: nourishing, glossy, and made to protect against dry air, wind, or any element your day throws at you.

Glow Recipe - Prickly Pear Peptide Mucin Moisturizer

We love when a formula manages to be both fun and serious - this one does exactly that. It’s powered by prickly pear cactus, which can hold up to 90% of its weight in water. Pair that with peptides and mucin, and you get skin that feels dewy and elastic, even in desert-level dryness. The texture of it is also addicting!

Youth to the People - Triple Peptide + Cactus Oasis Serum

We’ve always said cactus deserves more credit - and this serum proves it. It uses cactus extract (alongside peptides) to help your skin build its own hydration network, kind of like the plant’s self-watering system. It feels light, sinks in fast, and somehow keeps your face plump all day.

Dae - Cactus Fruit 3-in-1 Styling Cream

This lightweight cream is infused with desert-derived botanicals to help you create whatever look you’re going for - smooth, shiny, and effortless. It works on all hair types, taming frizz, adding gloss, and perfecting the finish without heaviness.

The formula includes prickly pear seed oil, one of the most nutrient-dense desert ingredients, known for keeping strands silky, strong, and healthy. Especially love this for slick back buns!

In the End…

The desert has always been our best teacher - calm, tough, beautiful. Everything that grows there has mastered balance: how to protect itself without closing off, how to glow without overdoing it.

That’s what great skincare does too.

So whether you’re in Palm Springs, New York, or somewhere between - here’s to products that thrive where nothing should, and glow because of it.
