Frequently Asked Questions

Helpful answers about choosing and using products in this collection.

Are these botanicals ready to use directly on the skin?

Not always. Some botanicals are best infused, strained, or incorporated into a proper formulation rather than used directly. It is important to check the product page for recommended usage and preparation guidance.

Are these botanicals food grade?

Do not assume they are food grade unless that is clearly stated on the product page. Some may be food safe, while others are intended for cosmetic, external, or formulation use only.

Can I use these botanicals in oil or water infusions?

Many botanicals can be infused into oil or water, depending on the plant material and your intended use. Always use a method suited to the botanical and make sure your final product is stored and preserved appropriately.

Are these botanicals suitable for bath products?

Some botanicals can be used in bath salts, bath teas, and soaks, especially in cut or dried form. It is helpful to use a sachet or strainer for botanicals that may leave plant particles in the water.

How do I choose between whole, cut, and powdered botanicals?

Whole or cut botanicals are often useful for infusions, soaks, and visible botanical texture, while powders are usually easier to blend into masks, soaps, and other formulations. The right choice depends on how you plan to use the ingredient.
