Begin with the kind of care you would like to create. Choose a handcrafted cream, balm or oil for simple daily use, a botanical bath tea for a complete bathing ritual, or individual flowers and herbs if you enjoy preparing your own botanical baths, facial steams and compresses.

Our handcrafted formulations are prepared in small batches and are ready to use according to the instructions on their product pages. Single botanicals are individual flowers, herbs, roots or resins that can be used to create your own teas, infusions and home-apothecary rituals.

Dried flowers and herbs can be placed inside a reusable cotton or muslin bag and added to warm bathwater. Keeping the botanicals inside a bag allows them to infuse while making cleanup easier. Always read the individual botanical’s product information before use.

Some flowers and herbs can be used in gentle facial steams. Allow freshly boiled water to cool slightly, keep your face a comfortable distance from the steam and limit the ritual to a few minutes. Facial steaming may not suit very sensitive, irritated or heat-reactive skin.

Many products can be enjoyed together as part of a layered ritual—for example, a botanical bath followed by a handcrafted balm or body oil. Always follow the directions for each individual product and introduce new products one at a time if your skin is sensitive.

Botanical ingredients can still cause sensitivities. We recommend checking the full ingredient list and performing a small patch test before wider use. Stop using the product if irritation occurs. Avoid applying products to broken or severely irritated skin unless the individual product directions state otherwise.
