The Serenity Scoop

A Creator in Motion
I didn’t grow up knowing how to identify goldenrod or infuse oils with violet leaves. I’m still learning. But something shifts when you start paying attention—when you walk through a park and wonder, Could this plant be part of someone’s healing ritual? That curiosity is where Serenity Soaps & Essentials begins. Not with perfection, but with wonder.

The Pull Toward Local Ingredients
Lately, I’ve felt a tug—a quiet invitation to explore what’s growing around me. Not just for sustainability, but for soulfulness. There’s something sacred about using ingredients that share the same soil, the same seasons, the same sunrises as I do.

I’ve started researching wild herbs, seasonal blooms, and ethical foraging practices. I’m learning how to harvest with intention, how to honor the plants I meet, and how to listen more deeply to the land. It’s slow, humbling work. And it’s changing the way I think about skincare—not just as a product, but as a ritual rooted in place.

My Experiments So Far
I’ve begun small. Petals from my own garden. Infused oils that smell like summer evenings. Texture tests that feel both luxurious and grounded. Some things have worked beautifully—like the calming scent of violet leaf or the way tallow holds up in Maryland heat. Other things? Still in progress. Preservation, compliance, melt resistance… they’re all part of the puzzle.

But even the messiness feels meaningful. Nature doesn’t rush, and neither should I. Each experiment teaches me something—about patience, about creativity, and about the quiet magic of transformation.

Inviting You Into the Process
This blog isn’t a tutorial—it’s a conversation. I want to share what I’m discovering, what I’m questioning, and what I’m dreaming up next. Have you used local herbs in your own rituals? Do you have memories tied to certain plants or scents?

I’d love to hear your stories—DM me, comment below, or just whisper them to the wind. This space is for connection, not perfection.

A Promise to Stay Curious
I may not have all the answers, but I do have wonder. And that’s enough to keep me walking, watching, and weaving magic into every balm, butter, and bar. Serenity Soaps & Essentials isn’t just about skincare—it’s about honoring the journey. And right now, that journey is wild, local, and beautifully unfinished.
