herbalist-formulated, nontoxic body care

I formulate each product in small batches with care, using slow methods that capture the full expression of the plants. Many of the herbs are grown or wildcrafted by me. I source plants thoughtfully, from local growers whenever possible.

The oils I use are organic, cold-pressed, and often regional - like Midwest-grown sunflower oil - and the honey and beeswax come from a nearby family farm.

about Anikó

I’m a folk herbalist and teacher, interested in the overlap between herbal medicine and everyday ritual. My practice is rooted in Hungarian folk traditions and inspired by the artists and village herbalists in my family — including my great-aunt Izus, who kept the family alive during and after wartime with her deep knowledge of the plants in her bioregion.

Before working with plants, I worked in education. For more than fifteen years I’ve been teaching workshops on herbal folkways, medicine-making, and personal ritual.

Today, I create herbal products to spark people's curiosity about herbalism. I work with clients and students to help them find steadiness, vitality, and connection, whether through consultations, mentorship, or seasonal practices.

I also offer postpartum doula services, providing the nourishing care of an attentive eastern European grandmother so my clients can heal, bond with baby, and recover.

Lately I’ve been distilling hydrosols, studying herbal energetics, researching Hungarian folk medicine, and dyeing with plants.
