How Should I Store ( plated )® Skin Science Exosome Serums for Maximum Shelf Life?
Learn how to store your ( plated )® Skin Science exosome serums to maintain quality. From room-temperature guidelines to travel tips, here’s everything you need to know to keep your serum performing at its best.
How should I store ( plated )® Skin Science exosome serums to maintain quality?
( plated )® Skin Science exosome serums maintain their best quality when stored at room temperature — 59°F–77°F (15°C–25°C) — in a place out of direct sunlight. A bathroom counter or drawer is an ideal location. ( plated )® does not recommend storing products where they will be exposed to temperatures below 10°C (50°F) or above 35°C (95°F) for extended periods, as this may affect stability.
What if my serum is exposed to heat or cold?
It is best to store ( plated )® exosome serums at room temperature. However, all ( plated )® exosome serums undergo rigorous stability testing at the dedicated manufacturing and innovation center in Rochester, MN. This includes exposure to extreme heat and cold to confirm that the formulas remain stable under a variety of conditions.
How are ( plated )® Skin Science exosome serums made?
( plated )® serums are manufactured in small batches, formulated in-house by scientists. Each formula combines HPE (Human Platelet Extract) — aka platelet-derived exosomes — with carefully selected carrier and base ingredients, such as soothing humectants, to support hydration and skin comfort. This approach ensures consistent quality, stability, and performance from every batch.
Where do the platelet-derived exosomes come from?
( plated )® Skin Science works exclusively with FDA-compliant donation banks. ( plated )® acquires these platelets and applies a proprietary, patented process to gently isolate and purify the platelet-derived exosomes for cosmetic use.
What makes ( plated )® Skin Science serums stable?
( plated )® Skin Science serums contain platelet-derived exosomes processed with proprietary, patented Renewosome™ stabilization technology. This process helps ensure the exosomes remain intact and stable at variable temperatures, giving confidence that the product will maintain quality when stored properly.
Is refrigeration necessary for ( plated )® Skin Science exosome serums?
No, refrigeration is not necessary. Thanks to proprietary Renewosome™ technology, ( plated )® Skin Science exosome serums are specially stabilized to ensure that platelet-derived exosomes remain intact when stored at room temperature. This unique process allows advanced science to be delivered in a shelf-stable cosmetic product — no refrigeration required.
How long do ( plated )® Skin Science exosome serums last once opened?
( plated )® Skin Science serums are shelf-stable, meaning they will last for a significant period of time when stored at room temperature and ambient light. ( plated )® does not recommend storing products in direct sunlight or at temperatures below 10°C (50°F) or above 35°C (95°F) for extended periods of time.
For best results, ( plated )® serums are at their most optimal stability within 12 months of opening.
Can I travel with ( plated )® Skin Science exosome serums?
Yes! ( plated )® serums do not require any special storage considerations for travel. Most packaging is TSA-friendly in size, making it easy to bring along in your carry-on bag. Many users appreciate that a single ( plated )® serum offers multiple benefits, allowing them to simplify their travel skincare routine down to just one serum and a gentle cleanser.
Do INTENSE Serum, DAILY Serum, and EYE Serums need different storage?
No. All ( plated )® exosome serums — INTENSE Serum, DAILY Serum, and EYE Serum — should be stored under the same room temperature conditions.
How do I use the refillable feature for ( plated )® INTENSE Serum and DAILY Serums?
When your serum is empty, unscrew the bottom of the bottle and keep the small grey ring inside the pump — it’s needed for the refill. Insert a refill of the same product, secure the pump, and twist closed.
Refills are available from your ( plated )® Skin Science provider or online. For a quick demo, visit the ( plated )® YouTube channel here.
