Hi There, Gorgeous!

My name is Karen Scott-Sassadeck, Owner and Founder of

Trace of Essence, LLC

I want to take a few minutes to share my lovely story

Little did I know the Trace of Essence anti-aging face oil journey was set to begin on August 7, 2020. I had been making this intoxicating oil for myself, family, and friends for many years. It was the only moisturizer I used-day and night. To give a bit of history, a few months earlier, in June 2020, I took a little brown bottle of magic with me on a trip to North Carolina. I left it behind for someone who had told me how much they loved the smell. Some time passed, and while I was back in Idaho, we were talking one evening. On that fateful day in August, they said, "Karen, I love the smell of your oil-you really need to sell it." Their words strongly encouraged me to bring my oil to market. I replied, "Well, I guess we need a name." There was a long pause, then a deep breath, and finally, the words: Trace of Essence. It was music to my ears.

My mind's eye immediately started processing the design, imagery, product logistics, and everything in between. And then, something crazy happened-within two weeks, the first bottle of Trace of Essence anti-aging face oil was delivered. It was a surreal moment, realizing I had actually pulled it off! The oil's soothing scent became a signature, bringing comfort and relaxation. That moment set everything in motion, leading to the official launch of Trace of Essence-a product created with love, intention, and a deep passion for skincare. Trace of Essence was truly born from a moment of inspiration-one that transformed a personal passion into a premium skincare line that I am now sharing with you. What started as an intoxicating anti-aging face oil has grown into something much bigger: a dream realized, almost serendipitously, and now brought to the marketplace for everyone to experience.

It also harnesses the benefits of argan oil, rose absolute, cypress, rose geranium, and skin-smoothing neroli. To further enhance hydration and elasticity, we've included avocado, apricot, and almond oils-each chosen for its ability to support healthy, youthful skin.
