hello

I'm Sara, the heart behind Roots and Aerials. As a lifelong lover of the natural world, I founded this little apothecary to share the magic I find in plants — from the grounding strength of their roots to the delicate, reaching beauty of their aerial parts.

For over a decade, I built my career in cosmetology, surrounded by the tools and products of the trade. But over time, I came to realize that daily exposure to toxic chemicals was no longer aligned with the life I wanted to live. At the age of 24, I was diagnosed with an incurable neurological disorder called dystonia. This life-altering moment became the catalyst for my transformation. Shortly after the diagnosis, I pursued certifications in Natural Holistic Remedies and Nutrition, stepping into the world of alternative medicine.

Inspired by the healing power of nature, this personal journey became the foundation of my new path — one where I now guide and support others, sharing the knowledge and practices that helped me thrive. Every handmade soap, herbal creation, and nature-inspired treasure is thoughtfully crafted with intention, using high-quality, plant-based ingredients that nurture both body and soul. Every sale supports the Dystonia Medical Research Foundation.

Fueled by a deep passion for energy healing, plant medicine, and creating products with pure, minimal, and toxic-free ingredients, Roots and Aerials was born in 2017. Roots and Aerials is more than a shop — it's my way of connecting people back to the earth, one gentle, aromatic bar at a time.

A bit about us

Impact Pledge

Because healing matters beyond the bar: a small percentage of every sale goes to dystonia research, shining light on a rare disorder that’s too often left in the shadows.

Our Goal

Our goal, as we continually evolve and expand, is to present products that are not only safer but also equally effective, without the compromise of harsh side effects or the inclusion of harmful ingredients. As we reach more individuals, our pledge is to maintain the utmost integrity of our brand, ensuring that each product aligns with the principles we stand for – promoting holistic well-being, clean beauty, and a conscious lifestyle.

What's to Come

I love crafting custom soaps that feel like sacred rituals—scents that whisper memories- textures that cradle skin- stories that heal the soul. This is only the spark.

Roots and Aerials is blooming into a full apothecary: salves, tinctures, potent remedies—always small-batch, transparent, and in rhythm with makers who honor the same truth.

Our Ingredients

Roots and Aerials ignited after years of diving deep into nature’s medicine cabinet, rejecting the noise of conventionalism, and falling hard for what actually works. From that fire, I began handcrafting soap bars-each one bespoke, and intentional: goat milk, botanicals, pure essential oils, mineral-kissed colors, and third party tested safe fragrances that sing to the senses.
