Handmade, Ancestral Skincare

Skincare the way it used to be -
honest, nourishing, and built to last.

Hi, I’m Lily!

Hearth and Homestead all started in my own kitchen, trying to soothe dry, sensitive skin (and baby cheeks) with ingredients we actually trusted. No synthetics. No mystery "fragrance.”

Every product we make is rooted in wisdom, passed down through generations. Handcrafted in Virginia with clean tallow, whole herbs, and the kind of care that actually works. Our products are always free of preservatives, fillers, artificial fragrances, GMOs, and other harmful substances.

What began as small batches for our own family turned into a community of families all over rediscovering ancestral skincare.

"If it's not good enough for our family, it's not good enough for yours."

Handmade in Virginia

Each product is hand-crafted in our Virginia studio before it’s packed and shipped.

No Synthetics

We always use natural ingredients. No micas, no artificial fragrances, and no synthetics, ever.

100% Grass-Fed

All of our tallow comes from regenerative family farms and is rendered low-and-slow to preserve nutrients.

Sustainable Sourcing

We choose responsible, traceable sources - often organic or sourced from small family farms.

Certified Cruelty-Free

We’re Leaping Bunny certified, which means no animal testing on our products or ingredients.
