Geranium’s Gift: Balance, Beauty & Renewal for Spring

Hello Friend!

Happy Spring Equinox!

Spring is here, and with it comes a shift in the air and in our very being. I love this season and all that it represents—the quiet awakening of the earth, the sense of possibility in the air, the reminder that renewal is always within reach. I love planting new seeds, both in the soil and in life, knowing that with care and patience, they will grow into something beautiful.

But this year, I’ve set myself a challenge not to take on too many things. It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of fresh starts, to scatter our energy in every direction, hoping something will take root. But growth thrives with focus, attention, and willingness to tend to what truly matters.

Instead of planting too much and struggling to nurture it all, choose with intention. Let’s commit to meaningful projects—the ones that align with our values and light us up—and see them through. Let’s give them the care they need, watering them with consistency, nourishing them with patience, and trusting that in time, they will flourish.

When we plant with purpose, we create something lasting. When the harvest comes, it will be all the more rewarding because we didn’t just start—we stayed, we tended, and we grew right alongside what we planted.

Product Spotlight

Geranium Essential Oil (Pelargonium graveolens var roseum)

Geranium essential oil is a skincare staple that balances oil production, calms irritation, and promotes a healthy glow. A beautiful alternative to rose oil or rose absolute (both Rosa × Damascena), it offers similar rejuvenating benefits at a more accessible price.

But its effects reach beyond the skin. As you nourish your complexion, you ease anxiety, uplift the spirit, and create a sense of inner harmony. Geranium sets the skin and emotions up for success, making it a perfect daily companion.

Its Latin name, Pelargonium graveolens, can vary depending on where it’s grown—as can its aroma. Geranium from Madagascar has a deep, rosy sweetness, while Egyptian geranium carries a more herbaceous note. Reunion Island’s variety is prized for its balanced floral-green aroma. Each region brings its own nuance, but the core benefits remain the same—supporting beauty and well-being, inside and out.
