The signature River Rose product! We call this a heal-all because it will do exactly that. Not just for dry and cracked hands, it's so much more! It's nourishing in all the right ways, and offers an abundance of healing properties. 

Here's why: 

Rose, the staple to this product is fit for the skin, primarily due to their hydrating, soothing, and antioxidant properties. They can help hydrate and tighten the skin, reduce fine lines, and soothe irritation and redness. Roses are also rich in vitamins A and E, which contribute to collagen production, essential for healthy skin, nails, and hair. As an antioxidant, rosemary oil can also help protect skin cells from damage, making it easier for them to maintain their natural levels of hydration. Yarrow, calendula, and gotu kola offer all the herbal magic to work with your skin and heal acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, scars, burns, and more! They are known as some of the most powerful herbs for healing in herbal medicine. Beef tallow's moisturizing properties can help balance oil production in the skin, reducing the likelihood of clogged pores and breakouts while helping to soothe and calm skin and restoring overall skin appearance.

Coffee infused oil, you say? Why yes! 

These properties above along with the high amounts of omega chain fatty acids and vitamin E contained in grapeseed oil, have made it a popular topical treatment for skin and the perfect choice for our heal-all cream. Grapeseed oil contains a powerful antioxidant ingredient called proanthocyanidin. This antioxidant may even out skin tone when it’s used on your skin consistently. Caffeine, found in coffee, can stimulate blood flow, which may help to tighten the skin and reduce fluid buildup under the eyes. Coffee also contains antioxidants like chlorogenic acid and melanoidins, which may offer some protection against UV radiation. Coffees high antioxidant content may help to combat free radicals, which can contribute to aging. Caffeine may also stimulate collagen production, which is important for skin elasticity. Some studies suggest that coffee may help to reduce the appearance of cellulite.

Why we add herbals to a simple recipe?  

We add healing herbs such as calendula and yarrow to aid in healing the skin faster, and for our balm effectively lasting longer! Calendulas claim to fame came from it's wound healing properties! It helps wounds to heal much more rapidly, prevents suppuration and stagnation of fluids, modulates any local inflammation, and prevents bacterial overgrowth and infection. Calendulas astringency helps to draw the wound together to heal it more rapidly and preventing excessive scar formation. Calendula seems to “clean the wound from the inside out,” indicating that rather than just superficially preventing infection and sealing the wound, it works on a deeper level of the blood and lymphatics in the local tissues and works up and out from there, making it the perfect herb for wound healing, sunburns, bug bites, and all sorts of skin issues! We use yarrow as it is cooling and speeds the healing of tissues. It is known as heal all, similar to calendula - it is used and very effective in its wound healing properties making it the perfect addition to our balm!

Outdoor Spray
$18.00

This plant-based outdoor spray repels and won't damage synthetic materials and is safe to use on gear and clothing because it's DEET free! 

One of the main ingredients is Camphor. It is a species of evergreen tree and the crystals of Camphor are considered as one of the most effective natural insect repellents due to the sharp odor that drives insects like mosquitoes away. Similar to Citronella, Camphor is highly odorous but it contains an active ingredient called naphthalene that sets it apart from the rest of its fellow herbals. Studies show that because of this, camphor has the ability to even repels rats, ants, beetles, ticks and more! 

This is a great deterrent while in the great outdoors and what I truly believe to be an underutilized plant! Camphor along with geranium, citronella, and lemon eucalyptus are a sure fire way to find some comfort.. making this my go-to for outdoor fun! 

Size: 120ml

To Use: Shake well before each use to disperse all the beneficial oils in each spray, and spray it on your clothes, skin, your gear, your campsite, and anywhere those unwanted pests might love to be. Reapply as needed. External use only.

Ingredients: Organic Witch Hazel, RO Water, Camphor (cinnamomum camphora) crystals, Catnip (nepeta cataria), Lemon Eucalyptus (eucalyptus citriodora) oil, Citronella (cymbopogon nardus) oil.

Regular use of this oil can promote many benefits for healthier hair.

The power of stinging nettle can lead to shinier and smoother-looking hair. This can be attributed to the plant's potential to encourage healthy hair growth and maintain scalp health. A healthier scalp and stronger hair strands translate to hair that appears smoother, shinier, and more lustrous.

Horsetail is a good source of silica and collagen, which can help improve skin texture, and promote hair growth.

Radish oil and carrot seed oil are rich in vitamins, minerals, and essential fatty acids, including vitamin C and omega-3 fatty acids, which are known to nourish hair follicles and promote healthy hair growth. The oil can improve blood circulation in the scalp, stimulating hair follicles and potentially reducing hair thinning and loss.

Lastly, rosemary oil is often used for hair growth due to its ability to stimulate blood flow to the scalp and hair follicles, potentially promoting growth and reducing hair loss. It may also help with dandruff and itchy scalps by removing bacteria that can clog hair follicles. 

Great for postpartum, aging, alopecia, and most other hair conditions.

You asked... We listened! Our magnesium cream is here! This offering is nourishing, gentle, and everything our body needed! This formula is made with nourishing beef tallow which adds so many healing properties to the already overflowing resumé of this lovely product. 


Did you know that 2 out of every 3 people are magnesium deficient? With magnesium aiding more than 300 of our bodily functions, it’s no wonder we feel amiss when our levels become low.

Magnesium helps with:

* Heart health

* Bone health

* Boosting mood

* Avoiding depression

* Growing babies during pregnancy

* Relieving muscle cramps

* Soothing pain

* Getting rid of restless leg syndrome

* Relieving headaches

* Balancing hormones

* Helping our bodies deal with stress

* Achieving deep, restful sleep

What’s the best way to get this important mineral into our system? Through topical application! All you have do is rub your lotion on and voila! It really is that simple!

The skin can rapidly absorb magnesium directly into our bloodstream. This is quicker than taking magnesium internally (& safer). Also, the body can assimilate and use the magnesium more effectively when its taken via the skin. When taking magnesium this way, the body can use exactly the amount it needs, making overdose impossible. The digestive system is completely bypassed, so risk of stomach upset is nonexistent vs when you’re using magnesium supplements you have to ingest. All of these reasons are why this magnesium cream is a family favourite!

Safe and encouraged for the whole family!

Size: 4oz

To Use: Apply topically. Reapply as needed.

Ingredients: Organic Locally Sourced Quality Grass-Fed Beef Tallow, Magnesium Chloride, Shea Butter, Aloe Vera Juice, Lavender (lavandula officinalis) Essential Oil
