Honoring the Earth
Ethical Sourcing of Herbs Matters at Nature’s Lost Secrets
At Nature’s Lost Secrets, every ingredient we use carries a story — not just a story of healing, but a story of respect for the Earth.
As an herbalist, I believe that true wellness must extend beyond the individual. It must also care for the plants, the soil, and the ecosystems that sustain life itself. That’s why ethical sourcing isn’t just important to me — it’s non-negotiable.
Many herbs that were once abundant are now at risk due to overharvesting, habitat destruction, and unsustainable farming practices. Precious plants like wild American ginseng, goldenseal, and certain species of sandalwood are now endangered because they have been taken without care for their future. When we lose these plants, we lose their ancient wisdom too.
At Nature’s Lost Secrets, I source only from trusted suppliers who share my commitment to:
- Organic or wildcrafted growing practices
- Sustainable harvesting methods that protect and regenerate plant populations
- Fair trade standards that respect the farmers and communities who cultivate them
- Avoiding at-risk plants unless they are consciously farmed or sustainably harvested
When you choose my products, you can trust that the herbs inside were grown and gathered with honor — not exploitation.
Ethical sourcing is more than a business choice — it’s a way of protecting the medicine of the Earth for generations to come. It’s a way of showing gratitude for the healing gifts nature offers so freely. And it’s a promise I intend to uphold with every product I create.
Because true healing should never come at the cost of future life.
The Natural Power of Tallow, Emu Oil, Honey, and Beeswax
Ethically Sourced
At Nature’s Lost Secrets, we honor the timeless connection between the earth, its creatures, and the natural remedies they offer.
We carefully select only ethically sourced, pure ingredients — respecting the land, the animals, and the wisdom behind each gift of nature.
You’ll find these extraordinary ingredients in many of our small-batch creations:
Grass-Fed Tallow
Used for centuries by ancient cultures, grass-fed tallow is one of the most skin-compatible moisturizers available.
Rich in restorative fatty acids and nutrients, tallow mirrors the natural structure of our skin’s own barrier, making it deeply nourishing and incredibly effective for supporting skin health.
Benefits of Tallow:
- Deeply moisturizes and repairs dry or damaged skin
- Boosts skin cell regeneration
- Supports collagen and elastin production
- Helps protect against premature aging
- Soothes inflammation naturally
We source our tallow from grass-fed, pasture-raised cattle raised with humane and ethical practices — ensuring the highest integrity from earth to jar.
Emu Oil
A treasured remedy in Australian cultures for centuries, emu oil is known for its extraordinary ability to soothe, protect, and renew the skin.
Its structure is highly similar to the oils produced naturally by human skin, allowing it to penetrate deeply and deliver nutrients exactly where they are needed most.
Benefits of Emu Oil:
- Calms inflammation and irritation
- Thickens and strengthens fragile skin
- Reduces the appearance of wrinkles and age spots
- Enhances the skin’s natural barrier against moisture loss
- Supports healing of scars and blemishes
Our emu oil is sourced responsibly from certified farms that follow ethical and eco-friendly practices, respecting both the animals and the environment.
Raw Honey
Once reserved for royalty and sacred healing rituals, raw honey remains one of nature’s most powerful gifts.
It gently exfoliates, hydrates, and protects the skin, while its natural enzymes work to enhance clarity, softness, and resilience.
Benefits of Raw Honey:
- Naturally antibacterial to calm irritated or acne-prone skin
- Provides gentle enzymatic exfoliation
- Balances skin’s pH to support a healthy microbiome
- Deeply hydrates and locks in moisture
We use only locally sourced, raw, unfiltered honey, harvested with care to preserve the health of the bees and their hives.
Beeswax
A timeless ingredient cherished across civilizations, beeswax acts as a natural barrier that seals in moisture without clogging pores.
It lends richness and texture to our balms, butters, and creams while offering protective and soothing benefits to the skin.
Benefits of Beeswax:
- Forms a breathable shield against environmental stress
- Prevents water loss and supports skin hydration
- Provides natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties
- Creates a smooth, luxurious texture in skincare formulas
Our beeswax is unrefined and sustainably harvested, physically filtered (never chemically processed) to retain its natural goodness and purity.
Rooted in Respect and Reverence
At Nature’s Lost Secrets, we believe that working with animal-based ingredients must always be approached with honor, gratitude, and sustainability.
Every tallow, oil, honey, and beeswax we use is sourced from partners who prioritize humane practices, environmental stewardship, and the health of the ecosystems they touch.
In every jar, every balm, and every ritual, you’ll find not just ingredients — but the legacy of earth’s healing secrets, lovingly preserved.
