I realized that I never talk about makeup on here! It’s probably because I don’t really wear much and only recently found stuff that works for my sensitive skin and is from sustainable brands. Anyway here are some of my favorites!
My studio for the last few days...
🍂

🍂
I love working outside on the earth, under the big sky, the soil still wet and pungent sweet from recent rains, the willow and live oak across the valley sparkling in the sunlight, beautiful red, orange, and yellow leaves falling around me with each soft, warm breeze.
🍂
🍂
🍂
The air smelled so rich with the complex scents of plants, and all day lady bugs landed on my sun warmed skin as I worked. Insects danced in clouds in the sunlit air above the meadow, a flock of birds, wings like percussive soft clapping, took to the air in ecstatic flight from time to time, and Ravens wandered and cawed about all day searching for snacks and mischief.

Gratitude for the soft spaces, for moments of sinking into the dream of life, for this earth, for my life. And for all the lovely people who stopped to stay hello and ask me what in the world I was doing 😂
💚🌿🧡🍂💛🍂❤️🍁

My old “beauty” self-care routine ain’t what it was. It doesn’t look like it did a month ago and it most certainly doesn’t look like it did a year ago. I’ve swapped out my flat iron for protective styles. Switched from lash extensions to castor oil. Said goodbye to foundation (99% of the time) and opted for clean skin instead. It’s gotten real crunchy!
It started off as just not being able to keep up with everything (ya know, pandemic) but eventually, I realized that in this season of my life, when it comes to a beauty routine, less is really just more for me 🤷🏽♀️Fast forward to now when I’m hardly spotted without my kid hanging off of me, less is my only choice 😅
Anyway, today I’m thankful for head-to-salve, deodorizing balm + eyebrow brushes cuz that’s about all I can do before P is ready for a tit 🍼
Has any part of your self-care changed recently?
An All time favorite 🤩 is back in the house 🥳
fatandthemoon All Salve for your skin, your lips, heck, you can put it on your eye brows for that glossy look 🥸
So much new in the shop + online
Open today 12-6pm
The Coven makers have been patiently waiting for signals of the sweet yellow blossom known as St. John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum), and harvest has come.
The more we tune in to our relationship with plants, the more we notice a certain synchronicity. Spending time with plants often brings a poetic connection to the medicine we are seeking, and harvesting Hypericum has connected our Coven to the repair that is happening in our lives. Light, warmth, and clear open space are the qualities we turn to for our own healing, aspects that mirror the ideal growing landscape for Hypericum.
Delayed gratification can help us access deeper layers of appreciation & enjoyment of the thing we desire. Thanks for waiting, patient plant people.
We are happy to tell you that your favorite repairing salves are back.

All Salve by fatandthemoon is an absolute household must-have for use wherever you might have once used petroleum gel.
I recently gifted some to a person who usually struggles with chaffing when running and it works a treat while I use mine to prevent wetsuit chaffing around my neck.
For use wherever you need to seal in moisture on your hands, face or body it is perfect for healing cracked heels and chapped lips - and just for that added bonus you can brush it onto your eyelashes and eyebrows to encourage strong, luscious healthy growth.
All Salve is:
🌞made from organic, ethically sourced ingredients
🌞cruelty-free
🌞plastic-free
We are filling this Sunday full of self-care with some more of our favorite fatandthemoon products! All vegan, all natural, and sustainably made cruelty free, we can’t get enough. Especially the masa and olive face paste paired with the face oil, a real dry skin rescue!

We name our potions with careful intent. When we say All Salve is an “All” salve, you better believe we’re smearing this pinnacle of minimal maximalism head to sole. We use All Salve as a lip balm and a knee and elbow softener, a final glow on cheeks, a pre-bath moisturizer, smoothed on ends of hair and on bee stings, coffee burns, new tattoos, rough cuticles and overly-washed hands. The possibilities are infinite. What unconventional uses do you have for this versatile potion?

Salves are the encapsulation of external herbal medicine; they are the sophisticated assemblance of fat infused with plant, the beneficial botanical chemistry suspended by an emollient lipid. But what really makes a salve is the wax. Wax both holds the herb infused oil where it needs and creates a protective layer. A good salve is a cornerstone of a witch’s tool kit. Our aim with All Salve is a ‘never leave your side’ kind of multi-purpose potion.
