Téýwilh Sweetgrass, Sage and Rose Geranium Cream

TÉÝWILH (tie-wayth) is the Squamish word for protected.

This light, fast absorbing cream blends hydrosols of sweetgrass, sage and rose geranium with oils and plant butters that nourish the skin. The earthy scent carries notes of vetiver and sage. Use morning and night for a deeply renewing ritual.  

The cream has an airless pump, which helps preserve natural creams. To use, gently push the bottom of the bottle up while pumping to get the cream to start to dispense.

What we LOVE about  Sḵwálwen Botanicals: 

Sḵwálwen (skwall - win) is a luxury Indigenous brand creating botanical skin care products. Honouring traditional Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) plant knowledge, they incorporate sustainably harvested and sourced plants and organic, high quality ingredients. Each product has a Squamish name to honour the place where this plant knowledge comes from.

Creating Sḵwálwen products begins with time spent on the land — forests, estuaries, or subalpine meadows  — to harvest plant foods and medicines. Using Squamish cultural teachings, Leigh approaches the natural world gently and respectfully, harvesting with techniques that are ethical and sustainable. 

Once the plants are harvested it’s time to process them. This usually includes scraping bark, cleaning, hanging to dry, infusing in oil and more. After processing, it’s time to create! Leigh loves this part — developing each recipe, pairing particular plants based on their healing properties with the highest quality oils, clays and plant butters. (Her five-year-old daughter calls these her “potions”.) 

Each batch of Sḵwálwen products is made with care and intention, bringing you luxurious skincare products free from harsh chemicals, phthalates, synthetic fragrances, synthetic colors and parabens.
