Seilich Botanicals

08/03/2026

Our Circular Business Model:

At Seilich, nature is not simply a source of ingredients, it is a partner in everything we do. Founded by botanist Dr Sally Gouldstone, our award-winning skincare is created from botanicals hand-picked from our wildflower meadows in the Lothians of Scotland.

Unlike conventional “natural” skincare that extracts resources from the land without replenishing them, our approach is circular. We harvest only small amounts from our meadow, leaving the majority undisturbed for wildlife.

The extracts we gather are used to create our skincare products, and the profits from those products are reinvested back into the landscape.

Each year we establish new wildflower meadows and actively manage existing ones to maximise biodiversity. In this way, our products help restore and expand habitats for pollinators and other local wildlife.

By giving back more than we take, we ensure that nature thrives alongside our business - creating a cycle where healthy ecosystems support our products, and our products support the ecosystems they come from.

Today is World Wildlife Day and we want to shine a light on the importance of wildflower meadows for wildlife.

Wildflower meadows are some of the most powerful habitats we can create, supporting bees, butterflies, birds and so much more. Every seed sown is a step towards restoring balance and bringing nature back into our landscapes.

As we celebrate wildlife, we’re also working towards something special - our Chelsea Flower Show crowdfunder appeal. We want to take Seilich’s wildflower meadow story to the RHS Chelsea Flower Show and shine a light on the importance of planting for biodiversity.

If you believe in growing naturally and creating spaces where wildlife can thrive, we’d love you to be part of the journey. Click the link in our bio and have a read.

We’re working hard to raise the funds to get to Chelsea Flower Show because this isn’t just a visit - it’s a chance to tell our story.

We’ve seen first-hand how quickly wildflower meadows are disappearing and how much wildlife depends on them. What was once common is now rare, and many people don’t realise what’s being lost.

We want to be there to show that meadows aren’t just beautiful spaces; they are living systems that support pollinators, improve soil, capture carbon, and reconnect people with nature. By sharing what we’ve learned, we hope to inspire others to protect, restore, and value these landscapes before they’re gone.

Getting to Chelsea means giving a voice to the small, often overlooked places.

Thank you for all your support so far. You can read more about our crowdfunder via the link in our bio. Please help us spread the word by sharing this reel. ❤️

Winter can feel long and a bit bleak. The meadow seems quiet, but if you take a moment to look closer, there’s still plenty going on and little things to make you smile.

What a fabulous evening at with , celebrating the life of Soil Association founder Eve Balfour in her childhood farm (Papple Steading). It was wonderful to hear so many inspirational tales from those affected by the soil associations work, as well as to share tales of conservation and regeneration with fellow table guests! Looking forward to working with the Soil Association this year on our research project (looking at quantifying produce quality from our meadows), and hopefully working towards our organic certification too! Huge thanks goes to who have been great Seilich supporters (and who sell our tea in their rather fabulous cafe/restaurant!).
