Gentle Roots

A little look at Gentle Roots at the recent mom’z | Solo Babymoon retreat 🤍

I was so pleased to support this beautiful retreat for mums-to-be with a selection of Gentle Roots products, from welcome gifting to little self-care moments throughout the stay.

Seeing my products included in such a thoughtful, nurturing space was incredibly special, especially one centred around rest, support and gentle care during pregnancy. Each mama received our BF Balm, a multipurpose balm that can be used on both mum and baby, alongside a few little pampering extras like our Glow Elixir and Detox Face Mask 💕

Featured here are our Radiance Body Oil and Lavender Balm, two products chosen to bring a little softness, nourishment and ritual to the retreat experience ✨

Thank you so much to mom’z | Solo Babymoon for having us, and to Sophie Hewitt for the beautiful imagery

Meet the Lavender Face & Body Balm.

It's designed to deeply nourish, soothe and protect dry, sensitive skin while bringing a little moment of calm to your day.

Perfect for:
🤍 Dry or dehydrated skin
🤍 Bedtime face and body care
🤍 Hands, elbows, knees and anywhere needing extra TLC
🤍 The whole family (ages 3+)

Looking for something suitable for newborns or ultra-sensitive skin?

Our Baby Friendly Face & Body Balm is completely essential oil free, fragrance free, allergen free and hypoallergenic, making it our gentlest formula yet. It's safe from birth and ideal for delicate newborn skin, eczema-prone skin and anyone who prefers to avoid fragrance altogether.

Because skincare doesn't need dozens of products. Just ingredients that work. 🌱

Which one would you choose: Lavender 💜 or Baby Friendly🤍?

When I say this balm replaces multiple products, I really mean it 🤍

Over the past two weeks postpartum alone, I've used our Baby Friendly Face & Body Balm for:

• Baby's dry patches
• Baby face & body moisturiser
• Meconium clean-up
• Nappy area care
• Sore ni***es during breastfeeding
• My own dry postpartum skin
• My toddler's face & body care
• Even my partner's dry skin (when I can convince him to use it 😅)

But honestly, that's just scratching the surface.

Customers (and our own family) also use it as a cleansing balm, tattoo aftercare balm, scar massage balm, intensive moisturiser for dry skin, and to help comfort skin prone to eczema, psoriasis and irritation.

This is exactly why Gentle Roots was built around multipurpose products. Less clutter, fewer products, more function 💕

A little personal update 🤍

The past few months have been a bit of a whirlwind.

Between running Gentle Roots, preparing for a new arrival, juggling life with a busy toddler, and all the usual ups and downs that come with motherhood, things have been a little hectic behind the scenes.

And then, last week, our newest little love arrived 🤍

She made her entrance into the world via a very dramatic home birth story that I'll save for another day 🙈 but we're both doing well and settling into life as a family 💕.

We're currently soaking up all the newborn cuddles, contact naps and precious moments that pass by far too quickly.

In many ways, Gentle Roots exists because of motherhood. It was my journey into becoming a mum that first inspired me to create the products I couldn't find elsewhere, so it feels only right to share this little chapter with you too.

Orders are still being processed, but I may be a little slower with messages and content while I recover, rest and adjust to life with a newborn.

Thank you for being here and for supporting Gentle Roots through every chapter of this journey 🤍

Many people trying to clear their skin are unknowingly making it worse.

Over-cleansing, harsh treatments, and complicated routines can leave the skin barrier stressed, irritated, and more prone to breakouts. Sometimes the best thing you can do for acne-prone skin is simplify your routine and support your skin instead of stripping it.

Our Clear Skin Ritual is a gentle two-step routine designed to help support clearer, calmer-looking skin.

🌿 Step 1: Detox Clay Mask
A blend of mineral clays and botanical ingredients that helps draw out impurities, excess oil, and buildup while leaving the skin feeling clean and refreshed.

🌿 Step 2: Clarity Elixir Face Oil
A lightweight botanical oil blend featuring ingredients like rosehip, h**p seed, black cumin, bakuchiol, and sea buckthorn to help balance and nourish breakout-prone skin without clogging pores.

Together, they help create a routine focused on balance, nourishment, and skin barrier support, without harsh or stripping ingredients.

✨ The Clear Skin Ritual bundle is currently on sale.
Visit our website to explore the routine and shop the bundle while the offer is available www.gentleroots.uk

When skin feels dry, sensitive or easily irritated, gentle care matters 🤍

Our Baby Friendly Face and Body Balm is a rich, allergen free waterless moisturiser carefully formulated to support delicate skin from the newborn stage and beyond.

Handmade in small batches, this multipurpose balm is powered by skin-loving ingredients that work in harmony with the skin barrier:

✨ Grass-fed tallow provides deeply nourishing, skin-compatible fatty acids and naturally occurring vitamins A, D, E and K
✨ Organic jojoba oil (calendula & chamomile infused) helps balance and soften while closely mimicking the skin’s natural sebum
✨ Calendula and chamomile are traditionally used to calm and comfort delicate or easily irritated skin
✨ Vitamin E provides antioxidant support and helps maintain freshness

Families love using it for:

• Face and body moisturising
• Dry patch rescue
• Nappy area comfort
• Sensitive or reactive skin support
• A gentle first cleanse cleansing balm
• Everyday gentle skincare for all ages

Because this is a concentrated, waterless formula, a little truly goes a long way.

🤍 Also available: a lightly scented lavender version, gently fragranced with organic lavender essential oil.
This variant is recommended for ages 3+ due to the presence of essential oils.
