Our Approach
SLOW FARMED SKINCARE FROM OUR HOME TO YOURS.
We grow strategic botanicals and herbs and use them to make plant-based skincare at our barnstead in Ohio. This means that we have complete control over how they are grown and stored to ensure you receive fresh skincare products.
It would be a ton less work to simply source all of our ingredients from large supply companies and growers but we truly find joy in watching each product come to fruition from seed to bloom to bottle. Meanwhile, we are also reducing our environmental footprint with the need for less ingredient shipping.
After harvesting our plants, they are dried and then infused into organic cold pressed oils using a slow cold infusion method to gently extract the beneficial therapeutics of each plant. By not exposing the oil and plant to heat during the infusion process, we are able to retain their maximum beneficial properties. Our botanicals and herbs are slow infused for a minimum of 4 weeks up to 6 weeks for the most potent oil possible.
We then use these botanically concentrated oils as the base for formulating the majority of our products: oils, serums, salves, balms, body butter, soap, and more.
Our plants are grown without any pesticides, herbicides, or chemicals and our products are:
- Handmade in Small Batches
- Plant-Based
- Free from Artificial Colors & Fragrances
- Free from Fillers
- SLS and Paraben Free
- Phthalate Free
- Petroleum Free
- Cruelty Free
- Contain Minimal Essential Oils (1% or less in each formulation)
We believe that self-care is important and hope that our products will be a gentle reminder to slow down and take time to feed your skin and soul with gifts from Mother Nature.
