There are moments in life that feel like a full-circle blessing, and this is one of them. Pretty Farm Girl has been featured in the latest issue of Willow and Sage magazine! This is an incredible honor, not only because Willow and Sage is a beloved and widely respected natural skincare and DIY magazine, but also because it has been a personal source of inspiration for me for years. Before Pretty Farm Girl was even a reality, I spent countless hours flipping through the beautifully designed pages of Willow and Sage, getting inspiration from other handmade skincare creators using the timeless wisdom of using nature’s best ingredients. Their passion for nontoxic, handcrafted beauty aligned perfectly with the vision I had in my heart when I set out to create Pretty Farm Girl. To now see our brand featured among its pages feels surreal and deeply meaningful. For those who may not be familiar, Willow and Sage is a dream magazine for anyone who loves natural skincare, DIY beauty recipes, and thoughtful self-care rituals. Each issue is filled with creative ideas, educational insights, and gorgeous photography that make you want to slow down and savor the beauty of toxin-free, handmade skincare. In this latest issue, Pretty Farm Girl is featured as a brand that embodies the heart of natural skincare. Our commitment to using pure, farm-fresh ingredients like tallow, goat milk, and castor oil is highlighted, and it’s such a joy to share the philosophy behind our handmade products with the Willow and Sage community. If you’d like to get your hands on this issue of Willow and Sage, be sure to check your local bookstores or visit their website. And if you happen to see our feature, I’d love for you to snap a picture and share it with us! There’s something truly special about embracing nature’s gifts, creating with intention, and watching a dream unfold in the most beautiful way. Thank you for being a part of this journey with us!
