The Botanical Apothecary: Nature’s Skincare Ingredients, Explained

"She blooms where the sun kisses the earth and her petals whisper healing secrets."

Step into my garden apothecary 🌿

Each of these plants, oils, and natural ingredients has a story — how I grow it, why I chose it, and what it brings to your skin. I infuse, blend, and bottle these botanicals by hand to create products that are as gentle as they are powerful.

✨ Whether you're exploring ingredients or shopping for something soothing, here's a peek into my personal botanical library.

Want the full list?

This is just the beginning! 🌸 Visit the Botanical Ingredient Library for the complete alphabetized collection, including the rare, the seasonal, and the custom-request-only ingredients I keep stocked.

💜 Lavender Soft, floral, calming — I infuse dried lavender into aloe and toners to help calm redness, acne, and irritated skin. ✨ Find it in: Lavender Infused Aloe

Shop Lavender Products

🌹 Rose Petals (Red + Pink) Hand-harvested and air-dried petals rich in vitamin C. Rose supports cell repair, brightens skin tone, and smells divine. 🌸 Also infused into: Pink Rose Aloe

Shop Rose Products

🌿 Thyme A surprisingly powerful acne-fighter. This little herb is antibacterial, balancing, and calming to oily skin. 💧 Blended into: Ultra Hydrating Acne Serum

✨ Carrier Oils: Which oil is best for your skin type?
Dry Skin? → Safflower, Macadamia
Acne-prone? → Grapeseed, Sunflower
Anti-aging? → EVOO, Rosehip, Almond

🌾 Calendula: Bright golden petals with skin-soothing powers. I grow calendula every summer and infuse it into oils for its healing, anti-inflammatory properties. Great for sensitive skin, scars, and post-sugaring care.
✨ Featured in: Natural Orange Calendula Citrus Sugar Body Scrub

Shop Calendula Products

🌼 Chamomile: Small and mighty, chamomile is like a lullaby for your skin. I infuse whole blossoms to calm irritation, ease redness, and support skin recovery. Especially helpful in my under-eye and baby-safe formulas.
✨ Included in: Gentle Toners and Facial Cleansers

Shop Chamomile Products

🍃 Witch Hazel Astringent: clarifying, and refreshing. I only use alcohol-free witch hazel distillate in my products to tone and tighten pores without drying. Perfect for oily or acne-prone skin. ✨ Star of: Adorn Your Garden All-Natural Pre-Sugaring Cleanser and Skin Soothing Solution

Shop Witch Hazel Products

🌻 Sunflower Oil
Lightweight, high in vitamin E, and non-comedogenic—sunflower oil nourishes without clogging pores. It’s my go-to base for infusions, especially for acne-prone or combination skin.
✨ Used in: Infused Serums, Face Oils, and Sugaring Aftercare Blends

Natural beauty comes from nature, not labs and factories.

Just a few thoughts for the day...

Beauty: Natural beauty comes from nature, not labs and factories. There are many over-the-counter, mass produced, personal care products that can be replaced with a few basic ingredients using old-fashioned, proven remedies for personal care.
Facial Care: Natural facial care remedies use organic ingredients that each hold benefits for your skin's health. Finding the right blend, the right herbs or oils or flowers for what one wants to accomplish. That could be soothing redness, treating acne or blemishes, or wrinkles around the eyes.
Skin Care: Natural, organic skin care remedies do a better job of protecting and healing skin than store bought cosmetics.
Here are just a few of the Natural Beauty handmade products (from scratch, in small batches) offered in my shop right now:
♦Absolutely Pure Aloe Gel
♦Lavender and Chamomile Infused Toner
♦Rose infused Witch Hazel Clearing Toner
♦Rose Water Toner
♦Hollyhock Toner
♦Oatmeal Calendula Brown Sugar Bath Soak and Body Polish
♦Oatmeal Chamomile Brown Sugar Bath Soak and Body Polish
♦Hollyhock Facial Mask
♦Lavender Infused Aloe Vera
♦Rose Infused Aloe Vera
♦Ultra Hydrating Anti-Aging Rose and Chamomile Facial Serum
♦Ultra Hydrating Blemish Fighting Thyme Sunflower and Aloe Acne Serum
☺♥

In my coming posts, we will discuss in detail the blends mentioned above and how they benefit your skin. Feel free to invite your friends along for the topics.

Exclusive! How To Use Sugaring Wax Tutorial instructions

The most common question that is asked me about sugaring gel/wax?
"Is it just like waxing in a salon?"
Well...yes and no.
There are similarities, yes. But that's where it ends.
There are so many DIFFERENCES that I can not say that sugaring is
"just like waxing in a salon".
Here's a comparison chart: (Click to Enlarge) SUGARING WAX: Do not confuse sugaring wax with the above-mentioned wax. The charts above include waxes used at salons (hot wax, resin wax, etc). Here's the low down on sugaring wax:

Facts	Sugaring Wax / Gel
Temperature	Just melted
Thickness	Applied very thinly over large area
Application	With a wooden spatula, butter knife Or applicator provided
Direction of Application	Against natural growth direction
Direction of Removal	With the natural growth direction
Method of Removal	With plastic, cloth or paper strips (I provide 2 denim strips)
Hair Thickness	Thin/Dark/Light
Goal	Temporary lasting up to three to four weeks
Hair Length	Trim if longer than 1/4"
Ingredients	Organic cane sugar fresh organic lemon juice Mountain Spring Water No chemicals or resins

How do you do it? Well, it could not be easier!
• Warm your sugaring wax ever so slightly, preferably, in a bowl of hot water until the wax has the consistency of syrup or honey*
Remember it should be somewhat warm, but NEVER hot!
• Always start with clean, exfoliated and dry skin**
• Apply a thin layer of cornstarch provided (or baby powder).
• Using the applicator provided spread a thin layer of the sugaring wax in the OPPOSITE direction of hair growth in the desired area.
• Apply a denim strip.
•While holding the skin taut, rub the denim piece back and forth creating heat friction. This action ensures the sugaring wax can soak into your pores, coating hair follicles.
• QUICKLY remove the strip pulling in the SAME direction of the hair growth.
*Note: You can use a microwave in 10-second intervals not to exceed 30 seconds.
**It is highly recommended that you exfoliate your skin gently before sugaring.
See? Similar to waxing at a salon, but I would say, well for lack of better words, OPPOSITE! AND naturally gentle.

It's time to rebrand JBHomemade's Logo! Give your opinion for a special coupon code!

Well, it's time to reorder my business cards and I thought what better time to take a look at my current logo and see if I can improve upon it! As much as I love the lil me holding the organic pot in the garden, I have been told by a few people that it seems a bit juvenile. So, with that being said, I have made a few collages and am hoping for your honest opinions. Both for the logo itself and for the font. 

Here is the current Business Card (07/2014 - 07/2016):

Update: October 21, 2016

And here is the final design! I am thrilled with the way my new logo and business card design came out and wanted to share it with all of you! 

Logo:

Hollyhocks are near and dear to my heart and an integral ingredient in some of the items in my skincare line. In fact, hollyhocks were the inspiration for me to start my skincare line, extending my offerings to you beyond sugaring for hair removal. We have a beautiful hollyhock garden and I use the petals and root system to make toners, masks and even hair toner.
