Botanicals & Infusions

We love working with botanicals and herbs to create powerful, healing blends! Infusing herbs into oil is an ancient practice and time-honored tradition of harmonizing the plant and oil. By doing this, the carrier oil becomes infused with the medicinal herb, and the remaining oil can be used directly on the skin. This is a simple, effective way to extract the healing powers of plants in blends for skincare or to ease physical discomfort.
