Lotions and Creams

Luxuriant on the skin, all lotions are made from simple ingredients that are good for the earth: infused olive oil, beewax, and water…sometimes a bit of coconut oil.

 

Jennifer is always experimenting with new lotion mixes.  People often make custom requests for a cream to meet a specific need, and those blends have become favorites.  Some favorites that Jennifer often has on hand are:

*Rosemary with a hint of mint

*Rose Petal

*Breast Massage Lotion with Dandelion flower and Lavender



Love Notes:
"I love Jennifer's skin lotions. They keep my skin moisturized; I
know they nurture all layers of my skin with the best possible herbs & oils.
I'm also a wise woman herbalist, but I don't have time to make lotions or
soaps. Thank you Jennifer!" -Julene

Love Notes:
"The bug spray I bought from you at the Gaia's Temple Faire worked beautifully in discouraging a bunch of ants that had invaded one of the offices here.  It's a massage therapist's office so we couldn't use anything toxic or strong smelling and the the cedar/yarrow mix worked beautifully!  And it smells really good.  Just thought I'd let you know."

Hand Crafted Herbal Products

 

Jennifer offers songs of love and gratitude as she hand harvests each plant at the peak of their potency.  Herbal preparations with various menstrums (pure olive oil, 50% alcohol, and/or apple cider vinegar) are made at the harvest site while the plants are still fresh and vibrant from harvesting.  Jennifer believes that holding the intention of gratitude while harvesting, coupled with on site preparations with the freshest plant material possible allow a strong plant spirit medicine to imbue each hand crafted item.  Plant preparations are all cold steeped in their menstrums for at least 6 weeks before decanting.

Please inquire for availability and pricing.




Soaps

Soaps are all hand crafted in Jennifer’s kitchen from a combination of vegetable oils: olive, coconut, palm, palm kernel, castor, avocado, and others.

-          Jennifer does not use any essential oil extracts, so there is no overpowering scent which can be irritating to some people.  Any scents come from natural plant infused olive oil.

-          Jennifer does not use any artificial coloring in her soaps.  All colors are naturally derived from the plants.

-          Jennifer uses recycled materials for soap molds, including milk cartons, water bottles, and plastic containers left over from purchasing oils.  Because of variety of molds, each bar of soap has a unique shape.

These soaps are very gentle to the skin, and feel luxuriantly slippery in the shower.  Shampoo bars produce a rich lather that rinses cleanly.  Jennifer always has a variety of soap on hand. 

 

Some favorites are:

*Fennel soap – with ground fine fennel seeds from Jennifer’s garden.  Great exfollient with a licorice scent

*Oatmeal Honey

*Dandelion Flower – bright yellow bar, excellent for oily skin

*Cinnamon Honey
*Nettle Shampoo bar

*Tropical oil Shampoo bar
