Our Brand Story
A Founder-Led, Handcrafted Brand
Botanical Skincare Lab is a small, founder-led business where every product is personally created by hand.
I personally formulate and handcraft every skincare product and handcraft the accompany sculptural objects, brining intention and care to each piece..
This dual approach allows the brand to offer something distinctive: a consistent, signature skincare range, paired with artisan-crafted pieces that can be adapted to reflect different locations and environments.
Nothing is mass-produced. Every item is made with intention, care, and an understanding of how thoughtful design and storytelling elevate the retail experience.
