We call our line “Slow Beauty” not only because it is the antithesis of everything fast and hurried and throw-away but also because there are thousands of years of enchanted history and rich, detailed stories behind how we make our beauty and so many of our ingredients. The use of cork stopped glass apothecary bottles and jewel colored unguentaria date back to ancient societies, there are flowers that royalty wore to confer their elevated status, herbs that were used to heal medieval kings and queens – we mine the past for its rare treasures and create handmade, small batch beauty that is unlike anything else that you can buy. If there are gifts left on your list, consider something truly unique and read the stories behind some of our most mythical and celebrated beauty.
