Handmade Botanical Gifts and Skincare
I create small-batch botanical skincare, hand-poured candles, and eco-friendly gift hampers that feel like a quiet, intentional pause in your day.
This is what it looks like when a gift is wrapped in meaning. For a special retreat, we used a client's own old sarees to wrap our handmade botanical skincare, creating zero-waste hampers that tell a story of mindfulness and care.
This is my Ajji, my grandmother, and my biggest supporter. I made this saffron and rose moisturizer just for her. Her joy reminds me why I do this: for me, handcrafting a gift isn't just about a product, it's a love language.
Meet the "Little Rituals" set, a perfect introduction to my botanical world. It features four of my bestsellers in travel-friendly sizes: a Citrus Burst Body Wash, Turmeric Facewash, Seabuckthorn Mango Butter Moisturizer, and a Citronella Mosquito Repellant.
Someone asked if we could make their gifts both beautiful and eco-friendly. The answer is always yes. This video shows how we turn old silk sarees into stunning, plastic-free Furoshiki packaging for a set of our bestselling botanical minis.
This is my Golden Hour Face & Body Butter, a rich blend for dry and damaged skin. Made with organic mango butter, seabuckthorn, and jojoba oil, it’s the intense, glowing hydration your skin craves, scented with earthy vetiver and patchouli.
I started this journey in my kitchen, experimenting with wax and wicks. Today, I've sold over 5,000 candles. This is a little piece of my story and a reminder that every big dream starts with one small, brave step.
Looking for a truly unique experience for your next event? I bring a Live Perfume Station to you. Guests can explore beautiful scents and blend their own personal fragrance to take home, making any celebration unforgettable.
A bride needed last-minute gifts for her bridesmaids, and I was so happy to help. We packed up our Canna Bean nourishing lip balms and sent them overnight to arrive just in time. I'll always do my best to make your special moments happen.
About Featured
My approach to gifting is all about the story, not just the product. When you order a hamper, I wrap it in upcycled saree fabric using the Japanese Furoshiki method to keep things plastic-free and personal. Whether you need a thoughtful birthday gift, wedding favors, or a bulk corporate order, I hand-craft every detail to ensure it feels like a genuine, natural experience.
When I started Bath & Being from my kitchen with a single burner, I just wanted to make things that felt real. My work is rooted in nature and the simple joy of creating with my hands—whether it is a batch of cold-processed soap or a hand-poured soy wax candle.
Everything here is made from scratch. You will find real ingredients like wild turmeric, mango butter, and pure essential oils, but never harsh chemicals or mass-produced additives. I love the challenge of making products that are kind to you and the planet.
Why Choose Handmade?
- Eco-Conscious Packaging: We avoid plastic and tape. My Furoshiki gift hampers use upcycled sarees, turning every gift into a reuseable, beautiful object.
- Small Batch Quality: Because I make everything in my studio in Arekere, I maintain total control over quality. No shortcuts, just pure ingredients.
- Customizable Experience: Need a specific scent for a wedding favor or a custom lip balm for your mom? I create blends that feel right for the person receiving them.
I also host workshops and run live perfume stations because I love the energy of making things together. If you are looking for a gift that avoids the mass-produced rush, I am here to help you slow down and find the perfect, botanical blend.
Bath & Being
I’m Pooja, the person behind every soap batch and hand-poured candle at Bath & Being. I quit my desk job so I could spend my days blending essential oils and wrapping gifts in repurposed sarees, all because I believe skincare should feel like a little ritual. My Ajji still gifts my products to her friends, and honestly, that is the only validation I need.
