Star Seed

There is so much happening with the business at the moment. This summer has been very rewarding, abundant and also wild. We’ve won 3 new awards, toured Europe with the brand doing facials in heatwaves and popups in the Swiss mountains.

All the while, I’m growing a little Star Seed baby in my belly. Now at 27 weeks pregnant it’s becoming increasingly challenging to do long travels/journeys. And I feel this strong urge to nest, prepare the nursery, slow down and rest. The seasons are changing too, hopefully we’ve moved past the last intense heatwave into more palatable pregnancy weather.

But we’ve got our business to grow, and because things are going well we are even more motivated to double down and follow the growth. I’m super excited for the Autumn with everything that it will bring.

Shout out to any female founder who have chosen business and motherhood side by side and somehow managed to pull it off, I feel ya ♥️

For years, my rosacea seemed to flare up at exactly the wrong moment. It would be before an important meeting, a big event, or a social moment I’d been looking forward to.

It affected my confidence far more than I probably admitted at the time.

My own skin became one of the reasons Emilie and I became so interested in creating skincare differently. We wanted pure, concentrated, gentle botanical formulations that could nourish and support sensitive, redness-prone skin, without relying on water as the base.

Forest Cream became the product I kept coming back to. Over time, I saw a real difference in the redness, inflammation and overall tone of my skin. More importantly, I stopped constantly wondering whether my skin was about to flare up.

It’s still the product I’d recommend first to someone struggling with dry, sensitive or redness-prone skin.

The Forest Cream is unisex, because everyone deserves calm, rested skin.

Sarah is pregnant with her third, has two little ones, and it is the summer holidays.

She says skincare is the last thing she has energy for, and then explains why she does it anyway.

Five minutes at each end of the day. Not a routine, in her words. Showing up for herself when everything else is chaos.

She coaches women through exactly these seasons, the ones where everything gets louder and the body starts sending the bill. Her whole practice is about settling rather than pushing. So when she talks about her skin, she is really talking about attention, and where the last of it goes.

Two products. Waterless, so a few drops is genuinely a few drops. Nothing that needs a second thing to undo what the first one did.

Small, but completely hers.
