Stratia
4.6
Stratia earns strong reviews as an effective, fragrance‑free, science‑driven skincare brand, with Liquid Gold frequently praised for repairing the skin barrier, layering cleanly, and delivering balanced hydration. Reviews also flag inconsistencies: Rewind can trigger redness for some, Liquid Gold may cause dryness or cystic acne in certain users and doesn’t noticeably fade hyperpigmentation, while Velvet Cleansing Milk’s ultra‑gentle feel can be too mild for those wanting a more robust cleanse.

I’ve been using Liquid Gold and Rewind for about two years (along with their retinol moisturizer, Night Shift) and overall I really like Liquid Gold, but lately my skin has not been loving Rewind (red splotches after using). Liquid Gold is lightweight enough that it doesn’t leave my face shiny or tacky, it still feels very hydrating. Love the lack of fragrance and decent price point. I plan to keep repurchasing.
Liquid gold really is liquid gold! It's a great moisturizer that kinda reminded me of a serum because of how hydrating it is! I love how it has sea buckthorn oil (which means it's like oil and moisturizer in one) and while using this product I can confidently say my skin barrier improved due to the formula which includes ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids. Using this really improved my skin health and I appreciate it being fragrance and essential oil free. The other products from the brand that I tried were solid too but Liquid Gold was the stand-out product that I will 100% will be buying again.

I'm in my mid 60's and I've just been through an 8 month flareup of rosacea and perioral dermatitis at the same time. After 6 months my skin was finally at a place I could begin thoughtfully introducing some products to help moisturize and rebuild my skin barrier. I did some research and found three Stratia products I thought looked good. Rewind a serum, Fortify a face oil, and Liquid Gold a moisturizer. I checked the ingredients on one of the inci websites and all 3 contained fantastic ingredients with nothing that would irritate sensitive skin! I've been using these for 2 months now and my skin isn't itchy anymore, it looks and feels more hydrated and even, and most of the redness is gone! None of these products have any fragrance added. Some people have mentioned they don't like the fragrance of Fortify. Personally I love it, it reminds me of fresh celery! I think it contains borage so that's probably what they smell. In the skincare world where you can spend hundreds of dollars on one small product, these are priced so reasonably for such high quality that it's worth a look if not a try! I'm hooked!

What is Stratia?
Stratia makes a line of simple and effective skincare products.
In their own words
Driven by boundless scientific curiosity to figure out how skin works and what skincare products actually do, our founder Alli Reed obsessively read dermatology journals. After a lot of trial and error, Alli perfected the formula for her moisturizer. She shared this initial formulation on her blog and even shipped leftovers from her personal batches to readers who wanted to try it. After some more research and development, this eventually came to be known as Stratia’s best seller, Liquid Gold. Fast forward to today, Alli is still researching and testing out new product ideas and is committed to Stratia’s mission of creating simple and effective skincare products.
