The Apothecary
Lutska Botanica is based out of a woodlands apothecary on Vancouver Island, Canada. Every potion is handcrafted with care & intention in a calm atmosphere with nature directly outside our doorstep. As the beauty industry continually races toward the next big trend, we choose to return to the pace of nature.
The Power of Plant Magic
We believe that old ways aren't going away.
As the beauty industry continually chases after the next new & trendy ingredient, we choose to return to our roots.
Our formulations focus on 'common' healing plants that we can easily cultivate in our own gardens such as calendula, nettles, hops, rosehips, lavender, rosemary and yarrow.
The botanically infused skin & haircare potions we create honor these humble herbs that have shared their extraordinary magic & medicine with us for lifetimes.
The Alchemist
Lutska is a self taught botanical perfumer and formulator known for her enchanting natural fragrances and self care potions. By blending the ancient arts of herbalism, perfumery & aromatherapy, all of her creations are infused with aromatic & healing benefits that come from plants.
Born in the magical city of Prague, CZ (home of many magicians & alchemists from the old world), Lutska's mysterious & moody aesthetic are inspired by her Slavic heritage. She now resides in a cozy cottage by the sea on Vancouver Island and is grateful to be surrounded by the natural wild beauty of the West Coast.
