A Year of Care: What We’ve Learned (and What We’re Carrying Forward)
A reflection from us.
⸻
As the year winds down, it’s natural to reflect.
Not just on what we did—but how we felt.
What we created.
Who we showed up for.
What we chose to let go of.
This has been a year of planting seeds. Of quiet beginnings, deep listening, and intentional growth.
Here are a few things we’ve learned—and what we’re choosing to carry into the year ahead.
⸻
1. Care Isn’t a Trend. It’s a Practice.
Clean beauty is evolving. What was once a niche has become a movement—but with it has come confusion, greenwashing, and performative wellness.
What we’ve learned is that care doesn’t need to shout.
It shows up in:
The time we take to choose ingredients
The decision to prioritize skin safety over instant results
The conversations we have with our community
And most importantly: the commitment to keep doing better.

2. Community > Perfection
We launched a conscious brand not with polished perfection, but with purpose. And you showed up for us—not because everything was ready, but because the message resonated.
Thank you.
This reminded us that:
People crave honesty
Progress matters more than polish
And the most meaningful brands are built with, not just for, their communities
⸻
3. Your Story Shapes Ours
From heartfelt emails to thoughtful DMs, the stories you’ve shared have grounded us.
You’ve told us about:
Struggles with sensitive skin
Frustration with hidden ingredients
The joy of discovering products that feel like home
You reminded us why we started.
And that this isn’t just a brand—it’s a shared movement of conscious care.

4. The Smallest Rituals Make the Deepest Impact
We’ve always believed in the power of daily rituals. But this year showed us just how vital they are.
A calming hand wash.
A mindful cleanse.
A moment to pause.
In a fast world, these slow rituals are how we protect our peace—and reconnect with ourselves.
⸻
Into the New Year, We Carry…
More listening
More transparency
More softness in how we show up
More courage to do things differently
More gratitude—for you
We carry the belief that care can change everything. And that when we do the little things with intention, the big things start to shift too.
⸻
Thank you for walking this year with us.
We’re just getting started.
And we’re so glad you’re here.
