Founded by a midwife in 1979, moms and babies have always been at the heart of WishGarden. The new bodycare line is the perfect complement to the brand's legendary fast-acting herbal tinctures for pregnancy and postpartum, providing the very best nature has to offer to support moms and babies during this precious time of life.
The foundation ofWishGarden's bodycare line is premium non-comedogenic base oils with naturally long shelf lives to provide versatility without the use of preservatives. These include jojoba, an oil that mimics human sebum and offers antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, and camelina, a nutrient-rich oil packed with alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an essential fatty acid. Rarely used in body care, camelina's skin-nurturing benefits bring innovation to formulations while keeping products paraben and petroleum free.
When it comes to the new bodycare products, the ingredients and formulations only tell part of this unique story. What makes these products special is the process by which they are made – beginning with the use of whole plant herbal infusions within the oils rather than adding concentrated essential oils or synthetic fragrances. Infusing whole plants in oil is an effective way to extract their benefits because it allows natural compounds to slowly transfer into the oil without compromising their potency. This method captures a wide range of fat-soluble components, such as antioxidants and soothing phytochemicals, making the infused oil rich in therapeutic benefits for the skin and body.
“We know that the skin can absorb active plant constituents when applied topically, making the quality of what we place on our bodies incredibly important,” said Erin Stokes, Naturopathic Doctor and WishGarden's Medical Director. “This new hand-crafted bodycare line incorporates whole plant herbal infused oils with a focus on those that have been traditionally trusted for topical challenges. Whether it's calendula for its soothing properties or lavender for its calming effects, the curated blends honor time-tested practices of medicine-making, while incorporating modern knowledge to standardize potency and ensure efficacy.”
A must-have for baby registries and hospital bags, the new line comes in eco-friendly packaging and ranges in price from $12.99-$14.99. Items are available now on wishgardenherbs.com with additional availability online and at retail locations later in 2025. Products include:
