Crafted With Intention

Every Gypsy Soul formula is created by me in small, intentional batches, right here in my home apothecary. I stir, blend, and bottle each product myself, combining the tactile rhythm of handcrafted work with the precision of modern tools like magnetic stirrers, ultrasonic extraction, and vacuum distillation. I grow some of the mushrooms I work with, and when I source, I do so with deep care and transparency. This isn’t mass production, it’s a personal, evolving craft where I can stay attuned to the ingredients, the seasons, and the energy behind each offering. What you receive is made with attention, purpose, and reverence for the process.

I’ve spent years learning from both the science and the spirit of mushrooms and herbs. Some of the mushrooms I use, like various oysters and lion’s mane, I grow myself with care. Others are sourced from trusted growers and wildcrafters who understand the importance of integrity and potency. I use time-honored methods like slow infusions and dual extractions, but I also embrace the precision of tools like ultrasonic baths and ultrasonic wands and vacuum or steam distillation to get the most out of each plant and fungi. These aren’t trendy ingredients to me, they’re allies. Whether it's a tincture, a toner, or a balm, each formula is a conversation between tradition, research, and deep respect for the natural world.

To me, skincare is more than a routine, it’s a return. A chance to slow down, tune in, and create a moment that’s yours. Every Gypsy Soul product is designed not just to care for your skin, but to nourish your spirit. Whether it’s the gentle mist of rose hydrosol, the earthy comfort of a mushroom extract, or the quiet intention behind a drop of serum, these offerings invite you to make space for presence. I craft each formula to feel like a small ritual: something beautiful, grounding, and real. It’s not about chasing perfection, it’s about creating moments of connection in a world that moves too fast.

I care deeply about what goes into my products, and what they leave behind. That’s why I choose ingredients with intention, avoiding anything harsh, synthetic, or unnecessary. I work with botanicals and mushrooms that are either grown by me or sourced from people who share my values. I also do my best to reduce waste wherever I can, using recyclable, reusable, or compostable packaging and crafting in small batches to prevent excess. Respect, to me, means honoring the earth, your skin, and the wisdom behind the traditions I draw from. It means being transparent, responsible, and always open to learning better ways to care for both people and planet.
