Small rituals can heal in big ways.

When you create something that can improve people’s lives, it’s your human imperative to share this gift with joy whenever possible.

As a chef, I live to share experiences that bring comfort, joy and restoration. What I learned from this Darling Botanicals journey is that it can reach beyond food - into the small rituals we do to care for ourselves.

For over a decade, Chef Rose Darling was in search of a lip product that not only soothes her lips during long shifts in the kitchen, but also touts culinary-worthy ingredients in flavors that are worthy of even the most discerning palate. After trying no less than 100 lip balms, oils and salves, she decided to take matters into her own hands.

By hand selecting each products’ ingredients and formulating for the human senses, each creation became its own universe of flavor, art, and healing. As colleagues, family and friends kept asking for more of her creations, Darling Botanicals was born.
