Facial Oil Elixir -The Seer- Patchouli & Rose Geranium - for Wise & Mature Skin

It began around a kitchen table, where a family of artists, plant lovers and a medical herbalist shared a cuppa tea and a simple question: could skincare return to nature? 

When our teen daughters first wandered into the world of expensive skincare bottles and glossy promises, we looked closer at the ingredients and felt a quiet shock. So much of it felt distant from the earth. With the wisdom of Nana Kat, our herbalist grandmother, and the memory of growing up close to the land, we chose a different path — one rooted in folk herbalism, love of the land and old knowledge. 

Today, we craft natural, ethical and mindful skincare by hand in small batches, inspired by folklore and the healing language of plants. 

Each bottle is made with gratitude, as we channel the plant lovers who came before us, the herbalist Nicholas Culpeper, the Celtic mythological healer, Airmid, and yes, perhaps a hint of Luna Lovegood.

NATURAL INGREDIENTS - We work in partnership with nature. Every ingredient in our skincare is natural or carefully derived from plants and botanicals, chosen for both quality and purpose. Many of our ingredients are organic, and each oil, herb and extract is thoughtfully sourced to bring gentle, effective plant magick to your daily ritual.

NO 'NASTIES' - We keep our formulas clean and simple. You will never find parabens, sulphates, silicones, phthalates, petrochemicals or synthetic fragrances in our skincare. We let Mother Nature do the talking, using only naturally derived or nature-identical preservatives that are approved by trusted bodies such as Soil Association and ECOCERT.

NO ANIMAL TESTING - None of our ingredients or products have been tested on animals. However, all of our Skincare products have undergone all required cosmetic safety assessments (CPSR) and are registered with the UK Government Cosmetics Notification Service.

PLANT-BASED -Our skincare is vegan and contains no animal products. We rely on the quiet strength of plants, botanicals and natural minerals — the gifts nature offers in abundance — to nourish and care for your skin.

ECO PACKAGING - We tread as lightly as we can on the earth. Our packaging is recyclable, biodegradable, compostable or reusable, and we avoid single-use plastics wherever possible. Caring for your skin should never come at the cost of caring for the planet.

HAND MADE IN SCOTLAND - We are a small family apothecary based on Scotland’s East Coast, beside the River Tay. Every product is made by hand in small batches, with care, gratitude and intention — a slow, thoughtful process that connects our hands, the land and your daily skincare ritual.
