Mother & Baby Apothecary | ANSOB After Sonnie bun, my offerings expanded for our community, a deeper appreciation for the unique needs of mothers and mamas-to-be. What began as a passion for holistic wellness naturally evolved into …

This Mother’s Day, return her to herself. Rooted in nature and crafted with intention, our clean beauty rituals invite her to slow down, soften, and reconnect.

Our sheet masks make the perfect gift for moms—a simple, soothing ritual that delivers deep hydration and a moment of stillness, self-care, and should I say habit-stacking.

The best of the best, cleanest ingredients that properly hydrate the skin.

Why we love Manuka Honey 🤓

In 1981, researchers at the New Zealand University of Waikato discovered that Mānuka Honey has a considerably higher level of enzymes than regular honey and identified its active agent, methylglyoxal (MGO)—the concentration of which is widely measured in the industry to determine the potency of what’s in the jar. These enzymes create a natural hydrogen peroxide that works as an antibacterial.

Activist's honey is wildcrafted in their homeland of Aotearoa New Zealand during a short seasonal window. Our Raw Manuka Honey is a pristine source of enzymes, amino acids and antioxidants that offer anti-inflammatory properties; helping to banish bacteria, harmonize skin’s pH and encourage cellular beauty from the inside out. As well as providing incredible immune and digestion support, our supernatural Mānuka Honey is also used to treat burns, wounds, acne and eczema, making these medicinal beauty products a must for everyone’s skin care.

The Activist Honey mask is a cult favorite worldwide, used in holistic treatments to support the skin's natural cycle.

With mild enzymatic exfoliation, honey can gently dissolve dead skin cells, & improve texture over time without abrasion- especially useful if your skin is reactive or if you’re avoiding harsh exfoliants.

Honey pulls moisture into the skin- maintaining hydration without clogging pores
and leaving skin soft, plump, and balanced.

Especially raw or manuka honey—is naturally:
antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, rich in enzymes and antioxidants
This makes it beneficial for:
Acne-prone skin, irritation or sensitivity, supporting skin barrier repair

When taken internally,

Unlike refined sugar, it provides:

Slow-releasing natural carbohydrates, trace minerals, and amino acids
providing a gentle energy support (especially if you’re depleted or fatigued) & adrenal/nervous system balance when used moderately

Manuka honey is well-studied for it's ability to inhibit harmful bacteria:
Supports immune response during colds, sinus infections, and sore throats, shortening the duration of upper respiratory symptoms.

Potency Matters:
MGO ~250 daily wellness
MGO ~500 therapeutic use

Studies show that the Methylglyoxal found in Mānuka Honey has been shown to increase and protect the production of collagen in the skin, promoting structural growth and regrowth. Mānuka’s amino acids harmonize perfectly the pH balance of our skin, helping us age gracefully. It is extremely hydrating for the skin, helping to retain moisture, which is an important part of preventing and reducing fine lines. Mānuka Honey can be taken internally or externally for this reason.

Working with your tools and integrating Chinese medicine facial maps 🪭

Grab your gemstone roller,

Apply your favorite face oil & serum, and begin right below your collar bones, rolling out towards the armpit, then down the sides of the neck, and then up towards the jaw. This will activate the lymphatic system. Don't be afraid to explore- lately I've been rolling over my lips and right in the corners are linked to our kidneys, a great point for detoxification and release of fear, or your reactive state of being.

As shown in my newest post on Instagram, I don't forget the brows. Especially in this season, working your brows can release fluid around the eyes and detox stress as it's linked to our neck and shoulders. Notice if you feel any tenderness around the start of your brow and third eye 👁️.
