Beard Kitten

Meet your beard’s new best friends. Plant-based ingredients will tame whiskers, soften scruff, & encourage fuller beard growth while remaining pH neutral, hypoallergenic & make-out friendly.

WHISKER WASH: The hardy, subtle fragrance works with rugged scruff or a full-grown beard, helping moisturize surface skin & condition follicles. 4 oz of raw vitamins & minerals; ideal as a full-face wash & shave oil. Made with castor oil, grapeseed oil, peppermint & eucalyptus essential oils.

BEARD BALM: Antibacterial nourishment gives beards a stronger hold with maximum cuddle mojo. Smells like Earl Grey tea by a campfire. To tame coarse whiskers, use as a styling pomade. 4 oz should last all winter. Made with coconut oil, unrefined shea butter, beeswax, calendula, evening primrose oil, lavender, cedarwood, bergamot & vitamin E. 

BEST USE: Apply whisker wash, massage into beard & surrounding skin, comb from root to tip. Rinse as needed. Smooth damp whiskers with balm. Done. Beard kissers everywhere, rejoice!


Grave Robber

Soothing, aromatherapeutic vapor balm. In the 15th century, four thieves were charged with robbing the dead & dying victims of the Plague. At trial, the magistrate offered leniency if they would reveal how they avoided contracting infection, despite their close contact. These perfumers & spice traders had rubbed themselves with concentrations of the aromatic herbs mimicked in this balm, disinfecting the air they breathed as well as their skin.

Made with organic virgin coconut oil, mullein leaf & essential oils of clove bud, lemon, eucalyptus, cinnamon bark, & peppermint. Smells like a gingerbread house. Most effective when applied on the soles of the feet, behind the ears & under the armpits (think lymph nodes) at the early onset of symptoms. Tin holds 4 ounces & can be made into a balm if you prefer. Shelf-stable for 1 year.

PLEASE: For external use only. If your symptoms persist, I urge you to consult your physician or health practitioner. This information has not been evaluated by the FDA & is not intended to replace professional medical care.

Refresh Mineral Toothpaste

Kiss morning breath goodbye & remineralize tooth enamel by gently removing plaque while naturally supporting a healthy mouth. This toothpaste will help neutralize acid, remove bacteria-filled organic matter, leach out infection & promote healthy gums. It also gently removes stains that results from drinking tea, coffee & red wine.

Made with bentonite clay, organic cinnamon bark, organic stevia leaf, baking soda & Celtic sea salt. Sugar-free, fluoride-free, glycerin-free & safe to swallow. If you would prefer peppermint, I’m happy to make a custom batch.

Brush once a day with a pea-sized dollop for 2-3 min, focusing on the teeth & tongue but going easy on the gums. Bottle holds 4 ounces & is shelf-stable for 4 months (due to water content.)
PLEASE: Always store bentonite clay products in glass containers.

Elderberry Tincture

Food can be medicine! Concentrated doses of elderberry are useful against several strains of influenza & common winter viruses, colds, flu, hay fever, sinusitis & sore throats. Most effective when applied at the early onset of symptoms. Dissolve 1 tsp. elderberry tincture into 8 oz warm water (letting the alcohol evaporate) or juice; add 1 tsp. raw apple cider vinegar if you have some. Sip or gulp as needed up to 3x daily during illness.

Made with organic, non-GMO elderberries, organic cinnamon bark, 100 proof vodka & infused over a six (6) week period to achieve full strength. Bottle holds 4 ounces & is shelf-stable for 2 years.

PLEASE: If you have serious health issues or think you might be pregnant, I urge you to consult your physician or health practitioner before adding this tincture to your diet. This information has not been evaluated by the FDA & is not intended to replace professional medical care.

Breathe Easy

Soothing, aromatherapeutic vapor balm for congestion & coughs. Anti-bacterial, anti-viral, camphor-free, petroleum-free & friendly to all skin types. Most effective when applied on the soles of the feet, temples, behind the ears & under the armpits (think lymph nodes) at the early onset of symptoms.

Made with cold pressed organic coconut oil, mullein natural beeswax, & organic essential oils of eucalyptus, rosemary, lavender & tea tree. Makes a great personal go-to solid perfume or works well as a gift. Rave reviews when given at baby showers, as stocking stuffers & as thank you gifts. Tin holds 4 ounces which is about 2 ounces more than a Badger Balm tin.

Honey, cough (syrup)

Mild tasting, herb infused cough syrup to sooth raw throats, expel congestion & soothe inflammation. Anti-bacterial, anti-viral, alcohol-free. Most effective when administered at the early onset of symptoms. Dissolve 1 tsp. Honey Cough into 8 oz warm water (making a pleasantly mild tea); add 1 tsp. raw apple cider vinegar if you have some. Sip or gulp as needed. 

Made with the golden ratio of organic honey, organic cinnamon bark, organic mullein leaves, distilled water & lemon juice to preserve. Bottle holds 8 ounces & should be refrigerated between uses for up to 6 months.

PLEASE: Do not feed Honey Cough to infants under one (1) year of age.
