So excited for the new creams! 😍🌸🌼

Creating a truly natural cream is more complicated than you might think. At its simplest, a cream is a blend of water based ingredients and oil soluble ingredients , but as we know, oil and water don’t mix!

That’s where an emulsifier and a natural preservative comes in. Finding the right natural emulsifier is key to creating a beautiful cream with a silky texture that absorbs well into the skin, without leaving an unwanted residue or feeling heavy.

The feedback has been great so far and I am so excited for these new formulations. 🤩🥰

They’re made to nourish, hydrate and support healthy-looking skin, with ingredients chosen for their unique properties.

🌼 Bakuchiol, a plant-derived ingredient often used as a retinol alternative.
🏵 Hyaluronic acid to help hydrate the skin.
🏵100% pure essential oils and botanical essences.
And some other amazing ingredients and extracts!

Natural skincare, multi thoughtfully created 👩‍🔬

Very excited for

One of the most adulterated (faked) essential oils, alongside Neroli, Sandalwood & Oud, is Rose.🌹

TWO THOUSAND rose petals for ONE DROP! 😳

My friend tried to help a farm grow Damask Roses in the Western Cape, but with no success. The roses were only able to produce Rose Water and no essential oil.

The conditions for Rose Damask roses to produce a sufficient amount of aromatic compounds has to be just right.😍👌

This is a secret way, no one really knows about, to test whether your Distilled Rose Oil is 100% pure....

Maybe your summer reset doesn't need to be complicated.
Maybe it's opening the windows.
Taking a long walk.
Clearing out what you've been carrying.
Breathing a little deeper.
Moving your body.
Clearing the air.

Or simply adding a few drops of essential oil to your diffuser and letting the aroma shift the feeling of your space.

🌿 What does your summer reset need?

I never thought a sculpture garden could feel like a living work of art. 🌿

The garden is so unique. Imagine being able to move through an artwork, exploring every little part of it, with every turn revealing something new.

And the best part? It changes with every season. I would love to experience it at different times of the year and see how the garden transforms.

This was definitely my nature & art highlight of the season. 🤍

There is nothing like a box full of natural skincare and essential oils. I love seeing what people choose, it always reminds how unique every persons sense of smell is. It is really an expression of our personalities and our inner desires.

Best part! Aromatherapy can beautifully be part your natural skincare routine, because when it comes to self-care, we can never have too much of either. ✨💆‍♀️🧖‍♀️🌸

My yearly tea stock-up at Carmién Rooibos Tea shop 🍵🫖🤍

My husband knows this will be happening when we go to Citrusdal. Each year, there are a few new things to experience and taste. 🛒🛍😋

This year, I not only filled up my tea bag and loose-leaf supply, but I also tried the cold brews. 🍹 It is definitely going to feature this summer holiday. Not sure I got enough 😂

And then there’s the one I let get away last year: Green Rooibos! 💚 I mean, it’s essential for research and development 😉 I can't wait to try my Green Rooibos 🌱 extract I am experimenting with for skincare benefits.

Green Rooibos is an excellent choice for higher antioxidant properties, as it is not fermented.

We are so lucky to be so abundantly blessed with people and companies passionate, and commited to producing quality natural products.

It's in the details 🌱

Did you know two bottles labelled "Rosemary" can be completely different?

As an example Rosemary Verbenone,which is the one you will find in the shop, is the variety you want for skin-regenerative, anti-acne, and hair-stimulating properties, compared to other rosemary types.

An uplifting Lime or Lemon🍹🍸?
A warming Cinnamon or Ginger 🍵🫚?
A relaxing Lavender or Chamomile 🪻🌼?
A romantic Rose or Ylang Ylang🌹😍?

A special request, a hybrid between the Star 🌟 of Bethlehem and the Flores de Amor🌹

The energetics and the aromatic of the Rose Geranium infused favorite with the GOLD of the 🌟

What a lovely combo ❤️

And the aroma possibly not available for much longer in the foreseeable future.👃

Did you know???

Over the past few years, severe droughts have dramatically reduced the availability of genuine Rose Geranium essential oil.

Traditional producing regions such as Egypt, South Africa and Madagascar experienced exceptionally poor harvests, leaving the global market with very limited supplies.

In South Africa, only a small quantity became available around October last year—and at a significantly higher price.
As the supply of authentic Rose Geranium declined, lower-cost synthetic fragrance alternatives became increasingly common in the marketplace.

At Ylang Leanne the stock is getting a bit low, but I remain committed to only using 100% pure, authentic Rose Geranium Essential oil from trusted growers.

Especially the specific specie you know to have the full especially rosy aroma, so you can experience the therapeutic qualities you know and trust 🌸

Or should I say oil of the year? 🐪🐫

I am always amazed by the many different ways my clients use Frankincense from brain fog and headaches to skincare, respiratory support, and helping improve the appearance of acne and scars.

It is definitely an oil that deserves a place in every natural skincare kit.

I always have Franki in my facial skincare oil and in my hydrator. Personally I like pairing it with Myrrh (double resin power) and then I alternate between Rose, Blue Tansy (redness relief), Immortelle (L'Octaiine secret) and Chamomile.

My next blend I want to mix it up a bit with the new Food Grade Vanilla absolute, Frankincense Carterri and Ylang Ylang 😋🍦🐫

Which one do you prefer: Frankincense Serrata or Frankincense Carterii, and what do you like to pair it with?
