Her Majesty, the Herbalist…

HMBQJ, Her Majesty Beautiful Queen Jean. A name my dad lovingly gave me, and a reminder of the Celtic roots that have always inspired my herbal practice.

Honoring the ancient wisdom of Celtic wise women, herbal makers, and the generations who carried plant knowledge before us. This Samhain, I honor my ancestors, my Scottish heritage, and my dad whose love remains part of my magic.

Wishing everyone a beautiful and safe Halloween. 🌙

Come back to your senses. Sensation station!

There is something deeply healing about slowing down enough to smell a handful of herbs, feel their texture, notice their color, and simply be with them.

Our relationship with plants is one of the most beautiful ways to reconnect with nature and with ourselves.

Our sense of smell is intimately connected to the nervous system, memory, emotion, and our stress response. The simple act of breathing in the aromatic compounds of plants can invite us to pause, soften, and become present.

So this New Moon, listen inward.

What does your body need?
What does it want?

Give it what it’s asking for.

The herbs are here.
Nature is here.
And so are you. 🌙

Wishing you a beautiful New Moon.
May you slow down, breathe deeply, and remember your connection to the Earth.

SCAR REPAIR SERUM back in stock.

A concentrated botanical oil created for the care of scars, stretch marks, burns and skin that has been through something.

Beautiful for new and old scars, post-surgery scar care, fine lines, and areas where the skin could use extra nourishment and attention.

This is one of my most concentrated facial and body oils, formulated with an exceptional blend of organic, unrefined oils and powerful botanicals:

Helichrysum essential oil, traditionally treasured for skin that has experienced trauma, helping support the appearance of smooth, healthy-looking skin.

Frankincense essential oil, a deeply restorative botanical traditionally used to support mature, dry, and stressed skin and promote a more even-looking complexion.

Geranium essential oil, balancing and nourishing, with a long history of use in skin care for supporting tone, texture, and the appearance of healthy skin.

Vitamin E, antioxidant-rich and deeply nourishing, helping protect oils and support supple, moisturized skin.

Then comes the specialty oil blend: rosehip, pomegranate, tamanu, apricot, sea buckthorn, red raspberry seed, and baobab oils, chosen for their rich fatty acids, antioxidants, vitamins, and skin-loving compounds.

Together, they create a beautifully concentrated serum designed to nourish, soften, moisturize, and support the appearance of smoother, more even-looking skin.

A little goes a long way.

Fourth year at the Capitola Art & W**e Festival, always during my birthday week. Thank you so much for all of the birthday love and wishes.

This festival is especially meaningful to me because Santa Cruz is where I spent so many years building Earth Cura, traveling to markets, setting up my little apothecary, and connecting with so many wonderful people.

Over the years, my vision has naturally evolved. I never initially imagined having a storefront, but three years ago Earth Cura found its home in Carmel by the Sea. Now I’m more rooted and established, while still getting to return to Capitola once a year and reconnect with the community that has been part of my journey.

I truly love setting up shop and sharing Earth Cura in different places, and there is something really special about seeing familiar customers come back year after year.

It’s a beautiful reminder of how much this business has grown and how many chapters have brought me here.

I’m so grateful for this living apothecary, this little piece of art, and the home Earth Cura has become.

And I’m also very grateful that my shop gets to stay set up every day.

Here’s to growth, full circles, and another beautiful year at Capitola. Capitola Art & W**e Festival

PALO SANTO BLESSING SPRAY IS BACK
One of my favorite ways to shift the energy of a space without lighting anything.
Our Palo Santo Blessing Spray is a smokeless alternative to traditional Palo Santo burning, made with pure Palo Santo essential oil, witch hazel, and distilled water. Each bottle also comes with a couple of Palo Santo sticks, sustainably harvested from a farm in Ecuador.
Palo Santo, meaning “Holy Wood,” has been traditionally used for centuries in spiritual practices, cleansing rituals, meditation, and ceremony. Its warm, grounding, woodsy aroma is known for creating a sense of peace, clarity, and connection.
Use it to:
Cleanse and refresh the energy in your home
Spray around yourself before meditation or yoga
Mist your bedroom, linens, pillows, or sacred space
Use before journaling, breathwork, or a ritual
Refresh your car or workspace
Spray after guests leave or whenever your space simply needs a reset
Carry it with you for grounding and energetic support throughout the day
I personally love using it at the end of the day, walking through the house and misting each room as a little ritual to release the energy of the day and welcome in peace.
Pure. Clean. Simple. Smokeless.
Made in small batches with love and reverence for this sacred tree.
Now restocked at Earth Cura Apothecary and online.

VITAL ROOTS

Hair + Beard Herbal Oil

One of the most beautiful ancient self-care rituals is hair oiling. For generations, women around the world have practiced the art of massaging nourishing botanical oils into their scalp and hair, believing that consistency, ritual, and deep nourishment are the foundation of healthy, beautiful hair.

Vital Roots was created as a weekly treatment to love your scalp and deeply condition your hair from root to tip.

Massage into the scalp once or twice a week, allowing the botanicals and nourishing oils to support a healthy scalp while softening and conditioning the lengths of your hair.

My formula begins with a slow infusion of:

Horsetail, naturally rich in silica and antioxidants

Rosemary, celebrated for supporting healthy scalp and hair

Fenugreek, traditionally used to condition and nourish hair

Nettles and oatstraw, mineral-rich herbs loved for their strengthening properties

Chamomile, gentle and soothing for the scalp

Infused into a blend of jojoba, castor, and olive oils, then enriched with argan, sea buckthorn, h**p seed oil, and rosemary extract.

Finished with essential oils of rosemary, cypress, geranium, peppermint, and eucalyptus for a fresh, invigorating botanical ritual.

This isn’t about overnight miracles.

It’s about consistency.
It’s about ritual.
It’s about nourishing the roots.

Also beautiful for beards.

Available in 1 oz and 2 oz bottles.

RAPID RECOVERY IS RESTOCKED

A fresh batch of our beloved herbal all-purpose first aid salve is here.

Salves are one of my favorite forms of herbal medicine. By slowly infusing whole herbs into nourishing oils, we capture the plant’s beneficial properties in a concentrated, skin-loving preparation that can be applied exactly where it’s needed.

Rapid Recovery is made to be the jar you reach for again and again.

For cuts, scrapes, minor burns, bites, bruises, dry and cracked skin, irritated patches, dermatitis, chapped lips, tattoos and everyday skin support. It can be used as an intensive balm for hands and feet, dabbed onto dry areas of the face, or kept in your bag as a little botanical first aid kit.

Inside each jar is a blend of organic herbs traditionally used to support the skin:

St. John’s Wort, known for its soothing and comforting properties

Yarrow, traditionally used to support skin recovery and calm inflammation

Calendula, beloved for soothing sensitive, dry, and irritated skin

Lavender, gentle, calming, and supportive for irritated skin

Plantain, a beautiful herb traditionally used for bites, stings, and minor skin irritations

A little comfrey, rich in compounds traditionally used to support skin renewal

Chamomile, deeply calming and gentle for sensitive skin

Burdock root, traditionally used to support healthy, balanced skin

These herbs are slowly infused into organic, unrefined olive and sunflower oils, creating a rich base full of naturally occurring fatty acids and antioxidants to soften and nourish the skin.

We also add organic apricot seed oil for its lightweight, silky feel, vitamin E for antioxidant support, and a beautiful aromatic blend of lavender, cedarwood, and copaiba essential oils.

Everything is made with organic, thoughtfully sourced ingredients and crafted in small batches with intention.

Available now in little 10 mL jars and full-size 1 oz jars.

Your herbal first aid companion, made from the plants.

Check it out in the shop and online.

Freshly rebatched and back in stock: Rose Radiance Facial Toner. Thank you all so much for your patience while I worked on restocking this beloved favorite.

A beautiful blend of rose hydrosol, witch hazel, rose hip oil, vitamin E, and essential oils of frankincense, Hawaiian sandalwood, lavender, myrrh, helichrysum, and rose. Truly, it smells and feels like stepping into a rose garden.

In a natural skincare ritual, toner is that nourishing step after cleansing that helps refresh and hydrate the skin, gently remove any remaining impurities, and prepare the complexion for your serums and moisturizers. This botanical blend brings together ingredients traditionally loved for their soothing, balancing, and skin-loving properties, leaving your skin feeling soft, refreshed, and radiant.

One of our most popular facial care offerings is finally back and available in 1 oz, 2 oz, and 4 oz sizes, both online and in the shop.
