Olive + Sage began with a simple question: could skincare be both beautifully effective and thoughtfully formulated for sensitive skin?
“Every ingredient is chosen with intention for the role it plays in supporting the look and feel of the skin.”
My Journey to Olive + Sage
As a mother of three, I became increasingly mindful of the products I used in my home and on my family’s skin. After struggling to find formulas that felt simple, transparent, and genuinely nourishing, I began researching ingredients and creating small batches of my own at home.
What started as a personal search grew into Olive + Sage in 2019. I still handcraft each product in small batches using purposeful oils, butters, botanical extracts, and carefully selected ingredients. Each ingredient is chosen with intention for the role it plays in supporting the look and feel of the skin.
I created this collection especially with sensitive, redness-prone, dry, and mature skin in mind. My philosophy remains simple: every ingredient should have a clear reason for being there.
Our Formulation Philosophy
-
✓
Waterless where possible.
Many of our creams, balms, and facial oils are made without added water, creating concentrated formulas where a little goes a long way.
-
✓
Thoughtfully preserved when necessary.
When a formula contains water, it is preserved appropriately to help maintain its quality, freshness, and safety.
-
✓
No synthetic fragrance.
We do not use synthetic fragrance, allowing the natural character of our carefully selected ingredients to shine through.
-
✓
Small-batch integrity.
Every batch is prepared with close attention to texture, consistency, freshness, and detail.
Our Botanical Sourcing Standard
Every botanical carrier oil used in Olive + Sage formulas is organic, cold-pressed, and unrefined. We choose these oils for their natural color, aroma, texture, and distinctive character, then incorporate them into concentrated formulas handcrafted in small batches.
Some of our essential oils are also organic, although not every essential oil is available in organic form. Complete ingredient lists are provided on each product page so you can review every formula in detail.
Purposeful Botanical Ingredients
From aloe vera and blue tansy to nourishing plant oils and rich botanical butters, each ingredient is chosen with intention. I focus on creating formulas that help your skin feel soft, comfortable, moisturized, and cared for—without exaggerated promises or unnecessary complexity.
I also believe skincare should feel approachable rather than confusing. That is why we provide clear ingredient lists, straightforward product descriptions, and personal guidance to help you choose formulas that suit your skin and preferences.
Made with Transparency and Care
My goal is not to promise overnight perfection. It is to create thoughtful botanical skincare that supports healthy-looking, radiant skin through consistent, gentle care.
Every Olive + Sage product reflects the same values that inspired my first batch: purposeful ingredients, honest information, small-batch craftsmanship, and a deep respect for your skin.
