What House of Herbs Is Really About
At House of Herbs, everything starts with a plant. Not just a list of supplier extracts, not a synthetic version of something natural. Real herbs grown in the backyard, picked when they’re ready, and infused by hand. That’s the part most people miss when they talk about skincare. The ingredient list only matters if the ingredients have some life in them.
We keep things simple because skin responds to simple. When you use whole plants, you don’t need to hide behind complicated formulas or scientific jargon. You get natural oils, natural antioxidants, and natural repair processes doing what they’re meant to do. No unnecessary chemicals. No fancy additives or fillers pretending to be helpful. Our formulas are based on plants that have been used for centuries because they work.
Why We Work This Way
Small batch isn’t a branding angle for us. It’s the only way to do this properly. When you grow the herbs yourself, you understand them in a different way. You know how the weather changed them this season. You know which ones came in strong and which ones struggled. You can smell when an infusion is ready. You don’t get that when something arrives on a pallet.
Working with whole plants also means the formulas don’t look or behave like mass-produced products. They might shift in colour from batch to batch. They might carry a stronger scent depending on the harvest. That variation isn’t a flaw. It’s a sign of real ingredients doing their thing.
What Our Products Are Meant For
We focus on formulas that support the skin’s natural balance. Not to “fix” you or to promise miracle results. Your skin already knows how to repair itself. Our job is to support that process with herbs that calm, soothe, hydrate, or protect.
Calendula to ease everyday irritation. Comfrey to help the skin & connective tissue recover and bounce back. Chamomile to quiet redness. Gotu kola to support collagen and skin repair. Plants with a long history and a clear purpose.
It’s skincare people can understand - and you don’t need a dictionary for it.
How It All Comes Together
Every product moves through the same loop.
Grow. Pick. Infuse. Strain. Blend. Pour.
Nothing rushed or automated.
It’s the kind of work that doesn’t scale easily, and we’re fine with that. We don’t want to trade quality for speed. We’d rather make less and make it properly.
Why People Come Back
People don’t return because we promise eternal youth. They come back because their skin feels calmer, softer, or more balanced. They come back because they understand and trust what they’re putting on their body. They come back because it feels honest.
And that’s what we want House of Herbs to stand for. Not hype. Not trends. Just real plants, real formulas, and care that shows up in the smallest details.
