Meet Shield: Your Skin’s Personal Bodyguard
Shield is your final moisture step. A lightweight face oil packed with essential fatty acids, oil-soluble Vitamin C, and plant-based Bakuchiol to seal in hydration, smooth texture, and restore skin barrier function, without clogging pores or causing irritation.
EFAs (essential fatty acids) are non-negotiable for skin health. If your skin’s dry, reactive, or constantly flaking, there’s a good chance you’re EFA-deficient. That disrupts keratinocyte turnover and leads to barrier breakdown. Shield replenishes what your skin can’t make on its own, so it holds hydration and heals itself faster.
Why You’ll Love It
-
Bakuchiol Boost: Plant-based retinol alternative that supports collagen production, reduces fine lines, and smooths texture—all the brilliance, none of the irritation.
-
Vitamin C Power: Oil-stable Vitamin C brightens skin, evens tone, and fights free radicals without oxidizing.
-
Cloudberry & Rosehip Oil: Antioxidant-packed duo that targets hyperpigmentation and defends against environmental stressors.
-
Squalane Seal: Lightweight emollient that locks in moisture, leaving skin plump and radiant without the greasy feel.
-
Overnight Radiance: Wake up with brighter, nourished skin—glowing like you actually slept eight hours.
Why Shield Stands Out
Everything in this formula serves a purpose, and that purpose is skin that holds up.
Not just to dryness or stress, but to everything you layer before and after. Shield was built to close the loop: reinforcing your barrier, locking in hydration, and amplifying the effects of the rest of your routine.
It’s not designed to do it all. It’s designed to make what you’re already doing actually work. That’s the difference.
You’ll feel it immediately—skin that’s calmer, smoother, more resilient by morning. Over time, you’ll need less to get more. That’s the power of a well-calibrated finish.
✔️ For best results, use it as the top layer in a two-part complete moisture system with Quench hydrating serum.

Let customers speak for us
from 48 reviewsI have been using the Trio since they all first came out and I don’t ever want to use anything else on my skin. It is a perfect and complete regimen. Angela is a skin wizard.✨
This stuff makes me think about washing my face in a longing way, like, ooooh I can’t wait to wash my face later. On my third reorder so you know its real.
I have been using Cult of Reason products since Grit first appeared on the market. I love this natural 'scrub'. Adding Quench and Shield to my daily routine has changed the texture of my skin. I'm 73 and my skin looks like that of a 30 year old....
Shield, Quench, Hydrating Face Masks or any Cult of Reason product seem to not only help my skin and face glow and thrive — they leave me feeling calmer and ready to face the changes in life. True! Barbara
I've recently started using these products and I LOVE Quench! It lives up to it's name and makes my skin feel - and look - great. I'm a mid 50s something woman who was looking for something to freshen and liven up my skin. I've found it. I started off with The Duo product set
The products are phenomenal. Angela is a perfectionist. She has created a product that works for all skin types. Cult of Reason has become my go to product.
Amazing product. More than worth the price. Smells and feels amazing; hydrates better than any lotion I’ve tried.
I have been using Cult of Reason products for several years and highly recommend them. I particularly love Grit but I also love Quench & shield. Definitely a good value for the high quality!
The quench product is the absolute favorite preference by my wife. This year we purchased two as the product and delivery surpasses expectations! We will visit Cult of Reason again in the future.
Grit has changed my whole routine. From helping with my acne prone skin to essentially healing the KP on my legs, i will be a customer for life. This line of product is amazing.
Why it works
Jojoba oil naturally balances oil production. Packed with Vitamin C and E, Cloudberry Seed and Rosehip Oil neutralize free radicals and fight hyperpigmentation. Bakuchiol, a natural retinol, improves tone and texture. Lavender, turmeric, and chamomile calm and soothe.

Shield will make dry winter hands soft again. Try it!
Incredible product. I saw a difference is the smoothness and glow in my skin after just a few uses. I will always have this product as part of my skincare routine.
I love the product and it's effect on my face. It's not greasy or oily and makes my skin feel smooth and look fresh.
