How to Choose
Both RISE and REST are built around slow-infused botanicals chosen for function first. Some are grown on our farm, others are intentionally sourced — all are used because they do specific work for the skin.
RISE — Made for Daytime Skin
Lightweight, bright, and fast-absorbing, RISE is designed to support skin through daily exposure, movement, and weather.
Yarrow (grown and infused on our farm) is traditionally used to support skin resilience and repair
Calendula is included for its calming, skin-conditioning properties, helping soothe and maintain balance
Finished with soft citrus and a gentle herbal base for an uplifting, daytime scent
Use RISE in the morning or anytime skin needs lightweight, everyday support.
REST — Made for Evening & Overnight Care
Grounding and comforting, REST is designed to help skin settle and recover once the work is done.
Chamomile (grown and infused on our farm) helps calm and soften stressed skin
Hops (grown and infused on our farm) are traditionally used to ease tension and support recovery
Lavender (grown and infused on our farm) supports rest, relaxation, and skin comfort
Use REST in the evening or before bed as part of a slow wind-down routine.
Each oil can be used on its own, or together as a simple day-and-night body care ritual.
RISE + REST are also available as a paired Ritual Set for $42.
How to Use
Apply to clean, damp skin after bathing.
RISE: Massage in quickly and get on with your day
REST: Massage slowly and allow to absorb before bed
Absorbs easily without a greasy residue. A little goes a long way.
