OUR 3-STEP ROUTINE
Freshly batched skincare -
My favorite routine is a natural and minimal one.
I've spent many years formulating my products, and while all are special to me, these 3 items I can't live without. I use it everday, twice daily- before the day begins and as I close my book for the night.
Step 1.
Cleanse your face with our All-Day Everyday Bar. This bar is 15% superfatted with Coconut oil and held together mostly with Sea Salt. It's a unique formula I created and quite different from your average bar of soap.
Step 2.
Now it's time to hydrate! 2 spritzes into the palm of your hand, these flower water serums is infused with non-gmo hyaluronic acid. Water-based, this will prep your skin for better absorption of our facial oil (or any oil.)
Step 3.
Apply a few drops of our Summer Face (and body) Oil. This is micro-batched and slowly infused overnight with whole herbs. It absorbs immediately into your skin and leaves a healthy glow.

HOLD UP! LET'S BE REAL FOR A SEC...
Let's Act Against Gun Violence!
Getting a gun to translate one's own aggression towards innocent lives is just such a lazy way to working on what's truly underneath the surface of one's own personal anguish and suffering.
Growing up in Singapore, feeling safe was taken for granted and while our laws can be problematic and somewhat draconian, America's weak gun safety laws allows Americans to kill each other with guns 25x the rate of other high-income countries.
And if for some reason you're one of those who care more about the economy than human lives, FYI- gun violence is estimated to cost your economy at least $229 billion every year. That's your money, OUR money, being contributed towards the 49,000 deaths annually.
This Memorial day weekend marks the start of our fundraiser towards the Giffords law center to end the gun lobby's stranglehold on America's political system. If this post resounds through you in any way, please contribute with us towards stronger gun laws and a safer society.

OUR SOAPS
The Benefits of Clay in Skincare
The clays that beautifully color our soap play an essential role in neutralizing negatively charged ions. Everyday toxins, such as free radicals and heavy metals, are attracted then bound through the clay’s electrical charges before being washed off, leaving our skin purified.
\03\\
CARRIER OILS
Botanical Infusions, Freshly Made
We also submerse our herbs into a variety of skin-loving botanical oils, heating them gently to create a fresh infusion. This traditional process ensures steady extraction of the herb’s medicinal properties, allowing them to diffuse into the oils steadily over time. These infusions are used throughout our entire collection.
