✨ By popular demand… they’re back in a bigger size! ✨

Our Pear of Roses and Lavender Grove Triple Butter Blends are now available in a larger jar, just in time for seriously dry winter skin.

These rich, whipped butter blends are made to deeply nourish and protect when cold air, indoor heat, and winter winds take a toll. A little goes a long way — and the larger size means you can truly sink into daily use without holding back.

✨ Pear of Roses is softly floral and comforting, with sweet pear fragrance, and vanilla and rose absolute essential oils. I’ll admit it — I’ve been using this one as a facial moisturizer, and I absolutely adore how nourishing and gentle it feels on winter-worn skin.

🌿 Lavender Grove may sound new — but you might recognize it as our former Lavender + Tea Tree blend. We’ve refreshed the name and the formula, adding carrot seed essential oil for extra skin-loving support, while keeping the calming, clarifying blend you already love.

If your skin has been asking for more this winter… this might be it.
Available now in-store and online 🤍

Product Renaming Spotlight ✨🌿
Rose + Resin

Our Rose + Resin Facial Moisturizer (formerly Rose + Pumpkin) reflects what this formula has always been about, the aroma and the experience. The scent is a gentle bouquet of soft rose notes from rose absolute, geranium, and palmarosa, grounded by the deep, skin-restoring presence of pure frankincense essential oil. While pumpkin seed oil remains a quiet powerhouse in the formula, pumpkin was never part of the aroma profile, so the name has evolved to better match what you feel when you use it. Same beloved moisturizer, now with a name that tells the true story.

YES, we are open and WARM on this frigid day! We'll be here until 6pm.

If you'd rather shop from home, our website is open 24/7, and Local Pick-Up is free!

You might be seeing some chaos insuing on both our shelves and online in the coming weeks with our branding changes...but LOOK where we've landed! I could not be happier with the fresh, botanical feeling of our new look and how leveled-up our displays will feel when its completely turned over. Thank you for always supporting our creativity and evolution! 💚

Something's happening over here!!!

What's the best thing about taking time off? The way we get to sit with our thoughts and ideas. The way we are able to build up our courage. The way we reflect on how far we've come and where we are headed.

I have made a big decision recently to start to rebrand our product lines from the quirky YB Stinky?, YB Dry?, YB Chapped?, etc., to a vibe that transitions us away from our craft fair days and into the boutique spa environment we have become. To showcase our growth and our CONFIDENCE. Putting the jokes aside to allow the JOY to live in the language that continues to tell our farm-inspired story.
