The bark of sweet birch and willow are collected in the early spring, before the trees begin to bud. Birch has a long history of being used in cleansing rituals, from Scandinavian sauna brooms to Native American sweat lodge ceremonies. Willow is a water-worker, growing with abandon in waterways and damp soils. Distilled together in mountain spring water, the result is a wintergreen-scented hydrosol containing the primordial waters of the season, perfect for new beginnings. The high salicylate content also makes it helpful for relieving occasional aches and pains.
2fl oz
Distilled fresh wildharvested sweet birch and willow bark + hand-collected mountain spring water
Mist generously onto face and décolleté after cleansing and before applying a moisturizer. Spray throughout the day to refresh and uplift. Mix with cosmetic clay and honey for a decadent facial mask. Suitable for all ages and skin types.
Founded by community herbalist, land steward, and writer based in New York's Hudson Valley, Anja Schwartz Rothe, Fat of the Land's mission is to share and honor the wisdom, magic, and abundance of the land. They aim to promote a cycle of health by nurturing the conviviality of all things. They believe true health is to nourish our bodies, minds, environment, and relationships, and Fat of the Land is an extension of that thought. With a focus on seasonal and bioregional medicine, they hope to empower individuals to take their health into their own hands and foster a sense of connection.
