These beautiful blooms will last a few more days, so they are perfect as a table dressing for a weekend gathering, a patio setting, or sim0ly to bring joy~

The peony season is fleeting. For a few precious weeks, they arrive in all their fullness—soft, fragrant, and impossibly beautiful. Then, almost as quickly as they came, they begin to fade.

Maybe that's why I love them so much.

A gentle reminder to slow down, savor the season you're in, and appreciate the beauty that exists right now, exactly as it is.
The peony reminds us that life's most beautiful moments are often the briefest, and that is exactly what makes them so precious."

Sunshine season is here, and after last years batches and feed back, lots of testing, tweaking, and researching, I am excited to introduce a new and improved Sun care shield to the Balanced by the Moon collection!

Our handcrafted Mineral Sun Cream is made in small batches using nourishing grass-fed tallow, shea butter, calendula-infused oils, jojoba oil, coconut oil, vitamin E, and non-nano zinc oxide. Designed with outdoor adventures, farmers markets, gardening days, beach trips, and everyday sunshine in mind, this creamy formula glides onto the skin while providing a natural mineral barrier.

As always, I chose ingredients with intention:
☀️ Grass-fed tallow for deep skin nourishment
☀️ Shea butter for moisture and protection
☀️ Calendula to help soothe and comfort sun-exposed skin
☀️ Jojoba oil for a silky, skin-loving finish
☀️ Raspberry seed and carrot seed oils for their antioxidant-rich properties
☀️ Vitamin E for added skin support
☀️ Non-nano zinc oxide as the mineral foundation of the formula

This formula is completely scent-free, containing no added fragrances or essential oils. The aroma comes naturally from the wholesome ingredients themselves, creating a light, earthy scent that reflects the simplicity of nature.

This is not your typical store-bought sun protection. Like so many of the products in my shop, it is crafted by hand, poured in small batches, and made with ingredients I would happily use on myself and my family.

There is something deeply satisfying about creating products that help people spend more time outdoors, connected to nature, while caring for their skin in a way that aligns with their values.

Available now in our 4 oz jars and ready to accompany you on all of your summer adventures.

Who else is ready for sunshine, gardens, lake days, and a little extra time outside? 🌿☀️

Most days, you'll find me somewhere between making herbal products, blending teas, pouring salves, answering questions, researching ingredients, installing faux dreads, restocking shelves, cleaning, ordering supplies, and trying to figure out what new challenge small business ownership has decided to hand me next.

Last month marked three years in business.
Three years of learning. Three years of mistakes. Three years of growth. Three years of discovering that the things worth building rarely happen overnight.

The same lesson applies to the natural wellness path that I encourage every day in this shop.
Whether you're improving your health, supporting your skin, reducing stress, or simply trying to feel better in your own body, there usually isn't a quick fix. Herbal wellness, lifestyle changes, and traditional approaches require patience, consistency, and commitment. The results often come quietly, through small choices repeated over time.

That's why the reviews shared below mean so much to me.

Balanced by the Moon is different from many shops in this industry because a large percentage of what I sell is something I personally make, formulate, blend, craft, test, package, or create with my own hands. My products are personal to me because they come from countless hours of learning, refining, and genuinely caring about the people who use them.

Nothing fills my cup quite like hearing that someone's skin finally found relief, that a tea blend became part of their daily routine, that a wellness product helped support their goals, or that a set of faux dreads helped someone feel more comfortable and confident in who they are.

Those moments remind me why I started.

The past few years have brought some significant changes, some difficult lessons, and more than a few moments of uncertainty. But standing here today, I feel something incredibly valuable:

Confidence.
Confidence in my craft.
Confidence in my purpose.
Confidence in the direction this little shop is headed.

Thank you to everyone who has trusted me, supported me, shared my posts, left a review, referred a friend, attended a class, booked an appointment, or simply stopped in to say hello.

You are a bigger part of this journey than you probably realize.

And I can't wait to see what comes next.
