I didn’t start ROSE + RITUAL Botanicals because I wanted to sell products.
I started it because I wanted something better for my family.
For years, I worked long hours in the restaurant industry, constantly busy, constantly missing time I will never get back. Moments that actually mattered and parts of my life I actually wanted to be present for. To say I was burnt out and lost is an understatement.
Over time, I started paying more attention to what we were using in our home, the ingredients in everyday products, the things we put on our skin and in our bodies without even thinking twice.
That’s when everything shifted.
I began learning, experimenting, and creating simple products using ingredients I could actually trust. What started in my kitchen — making things like elderberry syrup, garlic honey, and herbal-infused oils — slowly turned into something more.
ROSE + RITUAL Botanicals was built from that place. A desire to share what I’ve learned (and still learning every day), and to create products that feel safe, honest, and thoughtfully made.
Every formula comes from hours of research, late nights, and testing. Every ingredient has a purpose. And everything I make is something I would use on myself and my own family. Being transparent transparent doesn't seem to be a thing these days so I hope to bring transparency back. This is what we do, what we use, and who we are.
This space — From the Apothecary — is where I’ll share more about the ingredients, the process, and the why behind everything I create. I hope along the way we can build a beautiful community and I can call you all friends. 🧡
