Face, Body + Hair Oil | Sylvan Sommer | 50ml

Herbowski use organic medicinal plants and flowers sourced from a local biodynamic farm in England, as well as wildcrafted unique medicinal plants from a remote region of Altai Mountains. Altai today is one of the most ecologically clean places on Earth. Herbowski use only plants that grow there in abundance and these are collected for them by local herbalists. Botanicals are gathered for Herbowski throughout the late spring and summer seasons and delivered in autumn, so only once per year. They make extracts from these botanicals in-house using solar power.

It is a common misconception that synthetic, lab-created ingredients are necessary to achieve positive results in skin care. This is not true. Lab-made ingredients are cheaper than real plants and they cannot contain the nutrient content and vibrancy that nature can deliver.

Herbowski's 100% organic, raw, unrefined whole plant ingredients contain hundreds of antioxidants, vitamins, and nutrients. In short, there is simply no man-made ingredient that can compare to the delicate, intricate, and powerful science of nature. Herbowski use botanical extracts in all of their products.

It took Herbowski years to find the best producers of oils and butters. All of the oils and butters they use are certified organic, raw, cold pressed, unrefined, and pressed fresh for them by the farms that grow them or by artisan pressers. Herbowski use organic essential oils that have not been contaminated with pesticides or herbicides to ensure the most potent medicine for the most noticeable results. Herbowski products do not contain palm oils, synthetic detergents, artificial colorants or fragrance, parabens, sulphates, silicones, and mineral oils.

In the middle of the Pacific Ocean, there’s a floating mass of plastic waste. It’s there because humans dump 10 million tons of plastic waste into the ocean each year. Single-use plastic packaging for everyday products accounted for 54% of the world’s plastic waste in 2015.

Recycling is a good, but an underused solution (only 9% of worldwide plastic waste actually gets recycled). Instead of asking how we can recycle more plastic, the solution is working together to find ways to consume less of it in the first place.

Herbowski are fully committed to being a plastic-free brand, so they have worked hard to find the packaging that fits their ethos.

Their product packaging is made out of 100% post-consumer fibres, we use soy ink, eco labels, glass and aluminium recyclable bottles, kraft shipping boxes and eco filling. The packaging is made in the UK, by the printer that offsets carbon footprint and uses wind energy for all the production.

Herbowski are also working on bringing in a plastic offsetting program.
