In the spirit of aligning with that place in all of us that wants to shine, Fat and the Moon takes the notion of ‘highlighter’ literally and figuratively. We are delighted to present Glow, the sun inspired, golden counterpart to the silvery, moonlit Beam. The light and silky mineral based glimmer can be applied any place you want to glow. The radiance of Glow synergizes with the Spirit Medicine of St. John’s Wort, lending us the ability to bring light and clarity into the dark. Like the Sun, the Spirit Medicine of St. John’s Wort sparks the fertile darkness into life, into growth.

Glow is the magic love child of plant medicine and a desire to shake what your mama gave you. Fat and the Moon takes the root word of ‘cosmetics’, ‘kosmos’, seriously. Kosmos meaning order, to arrange and ornament. Our cosmetics aim to adorn, rather than cover, the unique arrangement of each personal galaxy.  

 Product Ingredients: Sunflower oil*, mica, iron oxide, titanium oxide, arrowroot starch* & Spirit Medicine of St. John’s Wort

|| ABOUT FAT & THE MOON ||

Continuing a family legacy of herbalists and natural healers, Fat and the Moon founder Rachel Budde has built her company around providing handcrafted, herbal body care products to those seeking a natural alternative to chemical-filled products. Like a witch over a cauldron, Budde experiments with age-old ingredients and recipes passed down from various healing traditions to craft innovative and simple products that are good for the body and the earth. Fat and the Moon started as an alternative to the toxic, mass production body care industry aiming to provide nourishing ingredients and nourishing messages of self love, and self care. 

And if you were wondering why 'Fat and the Moon'....

Fat as the first word in the name of my business has gotten me in some interesting discussions. People ask me about the name all the time because they can hardly believe I would use a word that has such negative connotations,­ especially when it is used within ‘beauty care’.

In part, I use the word ‘fat’ to be provocative; I don’t believe fat is a dirty word. But most of the fat in Fat and the Moon comes from my love of the material- oil is the medium of external herbal medicine. Fat in the form of oil, is the gift of the seed. Fat, both in plants and animals, is where energy is stored. The richness we taste in food, and the suppleness we feel on our skin after a good slather of bath oil, is our bodies recognition of and pleasure in that vital energy. Oil from plants, in and of itself, is medicinal. I feel honored as a medicine maker to indulge in the play of fat and herbs, especially under the influence of the moon.
