Hey there, fellow skincare enthusiasts! 🌟

If you’ve been keeping up with the latest beauty trends, you might feel like you need a degree in skincare. From “skin barrier” to “collagen production,” the skincare industry loves to throw around fancy terms to keep us reaching for our wallets. But what if I told you that effective skincare can be simple, affordable, and herbal? Let’s break down some trendy terms and show that herbal beauty products have it all.

1. Skin Barrier

What it means: The skin barrier is the outermost layer of your skin that protects you from harmful elements. A compromised barrier can lead to dryness and irritation.

Reality Check: Instead of splurging on overpriced products, focus on gentle, nourishing ingredients like Calendula and Beeswax found in our Chaga and H**p Face Cream, which help to strengthen and protect your skin.

2. Collagen Production

What it means: Collagen is a protein that gives skin its elasticity. Many products claim to boost collagen production.

Reality Check: While topical products may not directly increase collagen (despite what the say), nourishing your skin with oils like Sea Buckthorn and Rosehip Oil in our serum can support overall skin health and hydration.

3. Retinol

What it means: A derivative of Vitamin A, retinol is famed for its anti-aging properties.

Reality Check: Instead of retinol, consider natural alternatives like Frankincense and Carrot Seed Oil in our Eye Cream, which promote skin renewal without irritation.

4. Exfoliation

What it means: Exfoliation helps remove dead skin cells, promoting a brighter complexion.

Reality Check: Opt for gentle exfoliants like our Organic Oats and Jojoba Beads in the Exfoliant, which provide a natural way to refresh your skin without harsh chemicals.

5. Toners and Hydration

What it means: Toners are often marketed as essential for balancing skin pH and hydration.

Reality Check: Our Alcohol-Free Witch Hazel and Rose Quartz Toner hydrates and soothes with natural ingredients, leaving your skin refreshed without the alcohol drying effects.

Winter is settling in… slowly, softly, beautifully.

I’ve been quieter here—lots of snow shoveling, fireside reflecting, baking, and making herbal batches from this season’s dried herbs. This stretch before Christmas always feels tender and holy to me.

If you’re feeling the pull to take extra care of yourself, I put together a gentle little offer now through Winter Solstice (Dec 21st):

Buy any of the following tinctures & get the coordinating tea free:

🌙 Peaceful Sleep
💛 Cool & Calm
✨ Radiant Skin

A gift for yourself (yes, please) or someone who could use a moment of restoration.

And don’t forget to love on your skin—our longtime favorite serums + creams and the new Renewal Nectar face balm are all here to keep you glowing through the cold.

More goodness coming soon… including winter class details. 🤍

If you’ve started following me recently, you might think this is a grief page — but it’s not! 🌿

I don’t always talk about grief, but that’s just the season I’ve been in. The past year has brought so much change — a long-term relationship ending, learning to be a single mom, and closing my in-person shop (my dream) so I could simplify and breathe again.

As painful as it’s been, I wouldn’t change it. Grief has drawn me closer to God, helped me deeply appreciate peace, and separated the wheat from the chaff — the people and things no longer meant to stay.

Every time I share openly, so many of you reach out with your own stories, and it reminds me why I keep showing up this way. 💛

Through it all, the herbs have been my steady companions — helping me rest when sleep wouldn’t come, calm my anxious heart, and remind my nervous system that safety still lives in my body. If you’re walking through anxiety, sleeplessness, or heartbreak, these gentle plant allies can help you too. 🌿

✨ Featured here:
💔 Heartbreak Tincture – to mend and soften
🌿 Cool + Collected Tincture – for calm presence
😴 Peaceful Sleep Tincture – for deep rest

All grown beyond organically or lovingly wildcrafted, as always.
