Frosted bottles filled with finely ground powders of foraged and homegrown botanicals, collected throughout Norway, Virginia, and Massachusetts.     
    
Pictured is the Hint of Green version, which is a facial cleanser suited for sensitive & troubled skin. Use it as a face mask also, to truly take advantage of the powerful plants I included in this blend.    
    
The ingredients are as follows (in order of amount):    
    
▫️ Homegrown tulsi (aka. holy basil): the most sacred plant in Hinduism and for good reason. It has powerful healing abilities.    
    
▫️ Apples from Norway: from the same tree I used to steal from as a kid. I asked this time, I promise. A they contain Alpha Hydroxy Acid which works as a mild exfoliant.     
    
▫️ Leaves from homegrown Marigold: soothes skin and smells amazing.   
    
▫️ Neem: a highly praised plant in the Ayurvedic & Unani health systems, for it’s anti-inflammatory and anti-septic properties.     
    
▫️ Rhassoul clay from Morocco: a gentle and mineral rich clay commonly used in Hammams.    
    
▫️ Wood nettle from Northern Virginia: discovered and foraged during an early pandemic stroll in Stream Valley Park. It’s packed with minerals and vitamins.   
    
▫️ Amla (aka. Indian Gooseberry): proven to support collagen metabolism due to its antioxidant properties (NCBI).     
    
▫️ Comfrey leaves: proven to regenerate cell formation (NCBI), and commonly used as a poultice for it’s strong anti-inflammatory properties.    
    
▫️ Oat: well-known and used for centuries as a topical treatment for various skin conditions including eczema, rosacea, and acne.   
    
▫️ Spent grain collected from homebrewers in Richmond, VA: a few studies show it has valuable bioactive compounds that elicit anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties. Did you know Beer Spa is a thing?     
    
▫️ Rye flour: a very common grain in Nordic cuisine, but not common in skincare. However, I have found this grain to be superior in cleansing ability. I can’t find information on why exactly it works so well. Let me know if you do!    
    

Tomorrow I’ll be on my way to Norway! Godtfolk, let me know if you want any norveda products. I have room in my suitcase.  
 
Fulfillment in the U.S. will continue as normal, is staying in VA.
