The Radiant Glow of Perfect Health Hair, Skin, and Beard Oil
Inspired by (but not explicitly enchanted to!) the Goddess Aegle — daughter of Asclepius and Lampetia, granddaughter to Helios and Apollo, whose name means “brightness”, “dazzling light” and/ or “splendor” — as in, the beautiful glow which results from perfect health.
Sphere + Sundry’s proprietary TCM-inspired herbal mix for Beauty and Hair, with additions of organic Son of Apollo blend, propolis, white lotus, 13 essential oils, and 24k gold, infused in 100% organic golden jojoba, argan, and emu oils.
A few drops brings shine and radiance to the hair unlike any other (without giving a greasy look or weighing it down!), while application to the skin brightens, smooths, and softens. Use directly or as an addition to lotion, moisturizer, or other hair care products.
Offered in a 1 oz glass dropper bottle with 24k gold.

Genuinely radiant. I use this mostly on my face in the morning if I need an energetic boost. Brightens my spirit and my skin. I've loved all the beauty oils and this one is no different. I like the smell a lot, it fits.
I actually added this into the blank slate conditioner from this site. It has a really warm botanical scent that’s not too feminine, which I like. It gives my hair a soft natural healthy glow, which is great because it was looking really brittle and dry from the winter cold. Unassuming but attractive, which is actually a hard look to obtain through effort.
Not sure if it’s related but since I’ve been using I’ve shed a few pounds and noticed in the mirror the other day “damn, I look good.”
I used this beauty oil layered with other materia to massage my sick mom's face, gently applying and massaging her cheek/nose/overall face, 11's and temples to support lymphatic drainage and help clear her sinuses. Afterward, she felt a lot better, and felt the congestion start to clear. A little of this oil definitely goes a long way (as I used about 2x more than I needed to for full coverage!) I've only used this on myself once so far, but I'm excited to use this regularly in my night time skin care routine. I love how it feels, smells and easily glides upon my skin
I love using this with my other hair products when I’m styling with natural curls or a blow out. I put this on first and let it sink in before adding non-magical products. I get a nice glow and my hair always looks great!
This facial oil works wonders on my dry curls during the summer and sad skin during the winter time as described (I like to add it to lotions and leave-in conditioner). If you live in a colder climate, I recommend making this one the last step in the nightly routine before putting on a thin layer of petroleum jelly or a leave-on sleeping mask. I wake up the next day beaming.
In full disclosure, this one does have more of a medicinal scent in comparison to the VAD facial oil, but the smell fades rather nicely when the oil sinks into the skin (if it isn't your jam!). For what it's worth, have a light touch if you are using it on curly hair with high porosity. A little bit goes a long way.
The S+S facial oils are an interesting lot in the span of materia, because they are powerful treatment of the external layer of self though I have found they work even more potently with simultaneous treatment of the inner self with related materia. For example, when I started using the facial oil in combination with adding the Asclepius tincture to nightly water, I noticed my hair texture changing for the better--so much so that my hair stylist commented on how good the grow out looked despite the weeks without a trim.
with this, "nothing happens" without ritual observation, so it goes on my face for overnight incubation or as insulation against the blights of eclipses. will pair fine with other similarly based oils to stretch. scent is: clean, platonically ideal celery.
This has been a great help with my color-damaged hair, making it feel and look revitalized. Mixing a drop or two with other beauty oils gives a look or feeling of being clean and healthy and grounded.
I initially bought this, alongside OTC treatments, to help fade sunspots on my skin. While I have yet to see results from that usage, applying a bit of this oil to the straw-like ends of my color-treated, ageing-person hair has worked better than anything else I’ve tried to make them smooth and soft without any greasiness or heaviness.
I like that this oil is the most energetically versatile—it’s not too calming or energizing; you can wear it anytime. It goes on smoothly, and it makes you slightly more health-conscious throughout the day. I don’t love the herbal, almost smoky scent, but I don’t dislike it.
Great for dealing with persistent skin issues (I found it very helpful for acne). While I tend to use other S+S beauty oils before going out, this feels perfect to apply as part of my bedtime skincare routine to wake up in the morning with a healthy glow. It feels warming and healing and has an earthy, herbal scent.
I've used this oil on mystery pains, bug bites, rashes, hives. It helps alleviate the pain or inflammation every time. It's truly weightless when I use it on my hair. I've stopped using conditioner a long time ago bc my hair is so fine and recently started using this instead. I don't think my hair has ever been this light and soft before. I also like to use it on my face after my serum and moisturizer to seal in deep hydration esp during the winter months. It soaks right in and leaves my face hydrated and supple but never greasy. Very versatile beauty oil and I love the herbaceous smell <3
I wash my face and then apply this after rosewater and before moisturizer, twice a day--my skin has never been so supple, hydrated, and smooth. There can be an initial "purging" as some pores clear themselves but this is easily treated with centella or other acne cream of your choice.
All the beauty oils have been incredible for me and this is no different. I use it each morning and I've noticed a significant difference in how my skin feels more hydrated against the winter cold whilst also being smoothened out and balanced. I love the warm and spicy smell as well, it feels uplifting and healing on an internal level. Helps with being seen.
Though I had a weird skin reaction to this one, the friend I passed it onto has adored it. He said he loves the smell and we talked a lot about his love for "medicinal" smells. To me, it smells sort of like celery. Anyway, he's been enjoying it immensely and has definitely had results. He said to me "I think my face is lookin' tight!" lol.
Also: the customer service for S+S is awesome. I had an issue and they were very quick to get back to me. I was asking about the unlisted ingredients and they told me they couldn't tell me what was in the proprietary blend. Which I understand. But I just would love to know what my skin is reacting to so I can avoid certain herbs/ingredients in the future. They were really helpful and generous, though.
After applying this 2x daily for about a week, a guy said I was “so beautiful” and “looked 22/23”. I’m 37 and haven’t’t lost the baby weight. Also notice myself making healthier choices overall which could contribute to the effect. Gonna need another bottle.
I have found so far, using more product= more healing.
Immediate effects are apparent; hoping for some long-term ones as well.
I rotate this with Venus and Luna oils. It is clarifying, healing and purifying. It gives my skin a bright, healthy glow and feel. It encourages a healthy lifestyle too; overindulgence just doesn’t seem like fun, whereas healthy choices are.
My tear ducts have been clogged because my eyes are watering nonstop. Not sure what to do, I wiped them with a warm, wet washcloth then applied castor oil with several drops of this oil in it. It reduced the tears to a minimum, stopped my lashes from drying together, and prevented the tightening of skin that was happening overnight. My doctor said that surgery is a possibility if the situation doesn't resolve, but it appears I'm on my way back to health!
ps... I take full responsibility for applying around mucus membranes. I experience no contraindications when I do - no stinging, discomfort or anything, etc...
This has not only helped me resolve skin issues I've been having for months (which is unusual since typically skin is fine) but it also helps me tap in to my inner healer. Noticing it's easier for me to slow down to pay more attention to what my body is saying it needs in terms of movement to rest ratio and nourishing food choices for the day. My 1H fire moon is grateful. Love the smell as well!
I had read that working with Asclepius isn't for the lazy, and were they right! In the first week of wearing this, black mold made its appearance on the drywall in our basement. !!! And now I have embarked on a quest to rid my body and home of it, on learning how many mysterious issues I've been dealing with my whole life could be explained by being ill with mold.
So, not for the lazy!
And, as a facial oil, it is really nice and dewy, and it works perfectly with my gua shua stone as well. It doesn't aggravate my rosacea either. Like, it hasn't made it go away, but it has minimized its appearance.
I didn't think I needed another S+S beauty oil, and I was concerned I the scent of this oil would be too strong for me, but I couldnt love this more. I've put it on 3 times already today and cannot get enough of the scent. It's not sweet, but it's so delicoud. Very happy with this purchase, as usual.
I was sent this oil by mistake and the team very kindly allowed me to keep it AND I'M SO GLAD THEY DID! This stuff is AMAZING! It's done wonders for my mature skin - a little goes a very long way and it really does give a healthy glow. One word of warning though - if you're using it at night, watch out for your pillowcases if they're white, or make sure you give your skin plenty of time to absorb the oil before bed as the sunny yellow colour can make its way onto your bedlinen. That said, I anticipate using this oil for as long as S+S keep making it!
This oil is THE best with regular applications and prayers to Asclepius or Apollo. I started applying it to my face daily every morning after having some acne pop up (courtesy of running out of the VAD series face oil which is, needless to say, the queen of pampering products). Not unsurprisingly, my splotches were gone in a week. I felt positively dewey. But the superficial luminance of this particular concoction pales in comparison to what it *actually* does. When I wear it, I breathe more, pause often, think clearer and make decisions that radiate from my heart and mind out through my actions *and* pores. The Radiant Glow of Perfect Health is more like taking a liver tonic that does away with toxins at the root than applying a fancy coverup. The effect is a combo of vitamin-D-full skin whose human remembered aloe can be a delightfully proactive moisturizing friend, because the girl *knew* right when to take to the shade and did not get burnt. Buyer be warned, this is not a product for the lazy of heart; it’s an oil for folx who want to put in the work that helps them be better for themselves in all ways, always. Layers well with almost everything. Depending on pre-existing relationships with Asclepius and Apollo, minor energetic and skin purging may occur with initial use.
i've been using this to heal from an exact saturn returned turned ER visit with laceration and 1+2nd degree burns. after the initial stages of healing (past the possible infection stage), i've been regularly applying this oil mixed with rosehip seed oil over my wound and burn. i credit this oil in the speedy and easeful healing process!
I have never bought a beauty oil before, but my purpose was for skin issues (I have so many skin issues... not the least of which is a persistent giant patch of eczema). That said, I added it to my skincare too. So some observations: about the same effect as using the body butter on my eczema, however, added to my skincare: WOW... the morning after I used this for the first time (a couple drops in my usual facial oil), I woke up with such nice looking skin! It almost couldn't be due to this, could it?? I need to keep seeing the effects, but so far so good. There is a bit of a pungent herbal TCM smell to this - I don't mind the smell, but it is strong, so some people who are sensitive might not like this.
This is a great all-rounder, creates the base and clarifies for anything you put on top. Like good skincare for makeup to look good type of thing. I find it mixes well with all other beauty oils and adding a bit to a larger amount of base oil works well too. Grateful for this series and the beauty oil.
I have been using this oil on my face at night before bed on days when I really need to refresh my energy or days when I need healing. I haven't intentionally been using it for radiant skin - I've really grown to love all of the beauty oils for the way I can attune to their spheres on my face. But! My skin has cleared up a lot since I've been using this oil! I think I'm going to use to regularly for a while and see if it can also help my redness decrease. I have a bit of rosacea. I'll update this review shortly!
The Radiant Glow of Perfect Health / Asclepius IV beauty oil was the perfect facilitator for some (desperate) facial massage I recently attempted to relieve some awful sinus congestion. Outside of sinus woes, this oil has been nourishing and calming for my sensitive skin and the subtle TCM scent is sublime!
I'm a huge fan of using S+ as part of my skincare routine, and have been doing so since the first Venus in Taurus series (prior to skin oils being part of the lineup!) Every series has its own effects, and I find that this skin oil in particular not only improves the radiance of my skin, but directly contributed to me finally pursuing a particular beauty-focused treatment I've wanted for years but could never rationalize doing, with the "side-effect" of improved self-esteem as a result. Praise Asclepius!
This oil has such a healing scent, and when added to my regimen both for skin and hair, it feels deeply nourishing and protective. A little drop or three a night, during seriously depleting periods of time has been a soul-savior.
