Each Linden Leaves Body Oil is a unique work of art – ever wondered how we get the botanicals in the bottle?
Our team fill each and every one by hand with care and the process can take up to 2 weeks from start to finish.
Firstly we trim, prepare and freeze dry real fresh roses, and other fresh fruit and botanicals, through a process which takes around 10-14 days to complete and removes moisture from the botanicals, making them safe ad long lasting to use in our oils.
The dried blooms are hand crafted into bouquets and each bottle is then hand filled by our Christchurch based team. Next comes the oil blend, which saturates the roses and botanicals, absorbing deeply, plumping and restoring at a cellular level to bring these flowers and fruit back to a freshly picked radiance – the exact same process these oils offer your skin too!
It’s a labour or love that we do to delight, because we believe skincare should benefit both body and soul. Just as a chef might say you eat with your eyes, we believe your skincare ritual should nourish your skin perfectly and delight your senses of smell, touch and beauty as well.
