Jenni has always been a routine person. It’s part of our philosophy here at Oak—beauty as ritual—and it was also part of the inspiration behind our all-new Refining Mask. Scroll for Jenni's thoughts on the mask, plus the exact steps she takes to start her day with intention.

“I usually opt for a guided meditation. Initially, I did this sporadically, but it’s so grounding that it’s integrated into my routine really naturally these last few years. It’s nice to start the day with intention.” 

This mask is also part of my mental ritual for the day. The pillowy, whipped texture feels amazing, and I love the Blue Tansy scent—it’s one of our signatures. As I smooth it on, I try to really enjoy the moment. Everything we make at Oak is designed to give you a moment of pause, and this mask is no exception.” 

“My good friend Sarah Wragge makes an Alkalize Powder that I drink every morning. I mix it with three ounces of water, and it helps balance my blood sugar and reduce the acidity in my body.” 

“I always look forward to this little moment of connection with my kids. And it’s the perfect way to make the most of the 10 minutes that Refining Mask is on my skin.”  

“Taking the mask off with a warm washcloth is the best feeling. Your pores feel detoxed, any texture is smoothed away, and you're left with even, refreshed skin.

“My next step (if I have time) is always Firming Plant Peptide Serum. It has this incredible fine-line-filling effect, and together, these two products really prep my skin for going bare."
