WHOLE FOODS ✨

Shimmer Chef is a San Francisco-based fresh neurocosmetic beauty brand created by Chef + Esthetician Jennifer Sanford. It is built around the belief that caring for our skin, hair & scalp through whole foods can lift our spirits through aroma, touch, texture, temperature and shimmering results.✨

Neurocosmetics bridge the connection between skin and spirit. At Shimmer Chef we use fresh, organic, fermented ingredients, Perfectly Cold-Preserved™ to create formulas that make you feel as beautiful as the shimmering results look.

Something golden is almost here. 🍊✨
Months ago, we began with baskets of fresh, sun-ripened loquats, harvested by hand at the height of their season.

Followed by 45 days of slow-crafted formulation in the Shimmer Chef culinary atelier, working with the fruit, peels and flesh to create something entirely new.
Now, after months of harvesting, Shimmer C Infusion™, macerating, blending and refining, our much-anticipated Golden Loquat Collection is almost ready to meet you.

Three fresh, seasonal formulas for skin, hair, scalp & spirit created in the Shimmer Chef tradition of whole ingredients, thoughtful formulation and Perfectly Cold Preserved™ .

Golden. Fresh. Unexpected.
Coming very soon. 💛

Is your skin looking dull? Are you feeling stressed? ROSEHIP OIL to the rescue. Shimmer Chef’s Bergamot Beurre Evening Face & Body Balm and our Sweet Almond Rosehip Brine Face & Body Polish contain organic rosehip oil. Here’s how this superpower nutrient wields its magic:

ROSEHIP OIL From the wild rose shrubs of the Andes to traditional European apothecaries, has long been revered as a restorative treasure. Harvested from the tiny, ruby-toned fruits left behind after rose petals fall, this golden oil was once pressed into remedies to heal wounds, fade scars, and revive weary complexions. Its reputation as a source of renewal made it a coveted beauty secret, passed through generations as a natural tonic for radiance and vitality. 

FOR SKIN: In Shimmer Chef’s Bergamot Beurre Evening Face & Body Balm and Shimmer Chef’s Sweet Almond Rosehip Brine Face & Body Polish, rosehip oil softens and restores the complexion with a silky veil of nourishment while refining texture, brightening tone, and leaving the body wrapped in a luminous shimmer.

Celebrated as a skincare superhero, rosehip oil is abundant in vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, C, E, and K, along with potent antioxidants and essential fatty acids. This nutrient density fuels its dramatic restorative powers: it stimulates collagen formation, minimizes fine lines, and supports elasticity, helping skin appear firmer and more healthy. Its anti-inflammatory activity soothes redness and irritation, and promotes a more even-toned, radiant complexion. Rosehip shields skin from environmental stressors that can compromise its natural vitality. As a go-to for acute hydration, rosehip oil replenishes moisture, leaving skin soft, supple, and resilient.

FOR SPIRIT: Each application becomes more than care, becoming a sensory ritual that calms the nervous system through touch, sending signals of comfort and renewal to the brain. This neurocosmetic harmony reinforces confidence and emotional well-being, uniting outer vitality with inner serenity.
