It was a brisk, winters day walk to the bus yesterday but this darling Sweet Violet was there to greet me.

I adore all of the purple variety that are currently blooming wildly throughout my garden at the moment, but this gorgeous little white cultivar struck my attention and kicked the brain cogs into action!

For centuries Sweet Violets have been utilised for their medicinal and skin care benefits. Viola Odorata extract provides powerful calming, hydrating and clarifying properties...so it's time to hit the lab, I have ideas! 🤓🤔

Rosemary & Olive Leaf Hair Rocks and solid Conditioner Bars are here! 🌿

Say hello to hair care the way it should be, no bottles, no fillers, just concentrated plant power in a solid bar form that lasts for months. 

Based around a trio of nourishing plant oils: 

🌱 Organic Jojoba Oil - mimics your scalp's natural oils for lightweight, non-greasy moisture.

🌱 Organic Castor Oil - rich and strengthening, known for sealing in hydration and reducing breakage.

🌱 Pumpkin Seed Oil - packed with vitamins and fatty acids that add shine and support a healthy scalp. 

Together, they detangle, hydrate, and soothe — without ever weighing hair down or leaving it greasy.

Why Rosemary?
A staple of traditional plant medicine for centuries, Rosemary has been used to support a healthy scalp and encourage circulation.

Rosemary is well known for its clarifying and balancing properties, it's great for oilier scalps and hair roots.

Uplifting, herbaceous aroma with grounding, aromatherapy-style benefits.

Why Olive Leaf?
Rich in natural antioxidants, traditionally valued in Mediterranean plant medicine for protecting against environmental stressors. It's soothing, calming properties & gentle on sensitive scalps.

Traditionally used to support healthy-looking, resilient hair and is a source of naturally occurring nutrients from the olive plant.

No unnecessary packaging, no nasties — just real botanicals and essential oils doing what they do best; nourishing your hair and scalp the way nature intended.

Awesome for travellers; grab one of our new Elementary storage tins for plastic-free storage.

After a rather spectacular Rosemary explosion in the lab over the weekend...Rosemary round 2 has just gone into the dehydrators! 🤞🏼

Despite best efforts, sometimes things just don't go to plan...and I've had to start my Rosemary infusion project again.

Those of you waiting on the new Rosemary & Olive Leaf hair range, sorry peeps...it's gonna be a little bit longer!

I shall remember this time not to pour cold water in the infusion baths and explode all my glass vessels! 🤦🏼‍♀️🙄

These gorgeous guys have to be one of my favourite visitors to the garden this time of year! ❤️
They only come through winter and the cooler months and they are so chill, just chewing berries and muttering away. They are very social, don't scare easily and love to chatter and check us out.
We are blessed to have a lot of beautiful birds that come to visit, but my beautiful Gang Gang Cockatoos will always be a very special treat!

Had a little chuckle at my own expense recently...caught myself actually w**ding my w**d patch! 👩🏼‍🌾

My beautiful dandelions bring me much joy, they've earned my respect as one of my gardens great survivors and one of its greatest producers.

The medicinal benefits of this little beauty has a long history across many cultures. I eat its leaves & flowers, pickle the flower buds, use it in my tea and infuse it into my skin care.

Dandelion leaf is a potent skincare ingredient well documented for its anti-inflammatory, detoxifying and strong antioxidant properties.

Packed with vitamins A, C and E it can help neutralize free radicals, is excellent for combating premature aging and acts as a shield from environmental stressors.

Dandelion contains antibacterial and mildly astringent properties, helping to clear pores, regulate excess sebum production and can help to prevent breakouts.

What's not to love about this darling little plant, it's not just beautiful...it's a survivor with a lot to offer us!

Of late it has been my mission to go back to the drawing board on some of our earliest formulations and revitalise them with some new energy!

Our classic Bloom Rose & Vanilla body lotion is back...and it's better than ever!

Now infused with Dandelion Leaf, it's a powerhouse of vitamins and antioxidants. Dandelion is known to soothe inflammatory conditions, combat acne with natural antibacterial properties, protects against UV damage and promotes brighter, firmer skin.

Combine this with Organic Avocado oil to support collagen metabolism and Rose Otto hydrosol for lightweight, but deep skin hydration and you've got the perfect combo to support your skin's natural vitality.
