Meet Wild Chickw**d (Stellaria media) 🌱

Often overlooked as a garden w**d, this delicate star-flowered plant has a long history in traditional herbal skin care for its soothing, calming effects when used on the skin.

I love this little plant and I let it grow wild across my garden, not only for use in my skin care but I eat it regularly as a beneficial (and delicious) green in salads and veggie dishes.

Chickw**d glycerite (a herbal extract made by drawing out the plant's goodness into glycerine) now features in our H**p Seed + Green Clay Solid Shaving Bar.

Its glycerine rich conditioning soap lather helps the razor glide and looks after skin that's prone to irritation.

We've also added it to our Wild Chickw**d Day Cream. It sits beautifully alongside the other botanical extracts in the formula to leave skin feeling soft, calm and nourished.

Simple, plant-powered care, made in small batches, packaged thoughtfully and Aussie made 🇦🇺

Which one would you try first; the Day Cream or the Shaving Bar? 👇

Meet our Bamboo Avocado Oil Cleanser, available in two convenient sizes to fit your routine.

It was a brisk, winters day walk to the bus yesterday but this darling Sweet Violet was there to greet me.

I adore all of the purple variety that are currently blooming wildly throughout my garden at the moment, but this gorgeous little white cultivar struck my attention and kicked the brain cogs into action!

For centuries Sweet Violets have been utilised for their medicinal and skin care benefits. Viola Odorata extract provides powerful calming, hydrating and clarifying properties...so it's time to hit the lab, I have ideas! 🤓🤔

Rosemary & Olive Leaf Hair Rocks and solid Conditioner Bars are here! 🌿

Say hello to hair care the way it should be, no bottles, no fillers, just concentrated plant power in a solid bar form that lasts for months. 

Based around a trio of nourishing plant oils: 

🌱 Organic Jojoba Oil - mimics your scalp's natural oils for lightweight, non-greasy moisture.

🌱 Organic Castor Oil - rich and strengthening, known for sealing in hydration and reducing breakage.

🌱 Pumpkin Seed Oil - packed with vitamins and fatty acids that add shine and support a healthy scalp. 

Together, they detangle, hydrate, and soothe — without ever weighing hair down or leaving it greasy.

Why Rosemary?
A staple of traditional plant medicine for centuries, Rosemary has been used to support a healthy scalp and encourage circulation.

Rosemary is well known for its clarifying and balancing properties, it's great for oilier scalps and hair roots.

Uplifting, herbaceous aroma with grounding, aromatherapy-style benefits.

Why Olive Leaf?
Rich in natural antioxidants, traditionally valued in Mediterranean plant medicine for protecting against environmental stressors. It's soothing, calming properties & gentle on sensitive scalps.

Traditionally used to support healthy-looking, resilient hair and is a source of naturally occurring nutrients from the olive plant.

No unnecessary packaging, no nasties — just real botanicals and essential oils doing what they do best; nourishing your hair and scalp the way nature intended.

Awesome for travellers; grab one of our new Elementary storage tins for plastic-free storage.

After a rather spectacular Rosemary explosion in the lab over the weekend...Rosemary round 2 has just gone into the dehydrators! 🤞🏼

Despite best efforts, sometimes things just don't go to plan...and I've had to start my Rosemary infusion project again.

Those of you waiting on the new Rosemary & Olive Leaf hair range, sorry peeps...it's gonna be a little bit longer!

I shall remember this time not to pour cold water in the infusion baths and explode all my glass vessels! 🤦🏼‍♀️🙄

These gorgeous guys have to be one of my favourite visitors to the garden this time of year! ❤️
They only come through winter and the cooler months and they are so chill, just chewing berries and muttering away. They are very social, don't scare easily and love to chatter and check us out.
We are blessed to have a lot of beautiful birds that come to visit, but my beautiful Gang Gang Cockatoos will always be a very special treat!
