we are an apothecary boutique preserving Afro botanical femme practices through all natural plant based products and handmade items. our products celebrate the power of nature as refuge and earth healing. we offer skincare, herbal bath soaks, salves, tea, jewelry, amulets, spiritual tools, homeware, and more. through our products, we hope you find a felt sense of connection to land and spirit - that protects and eternally calls back to us.
we’ve carefully crafted our products with the best natural ingredients in their raw form - to provide your vessel with tools of health and vitality influenced by past, present , and future Black and Indigenous communal exchange with land and spirit.
through beneficial botanical infusions, our products provide essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals to the skin.
skin is the first layer of our being to which we experience the world. we witness its beauty through its willingness to provide a physical layer of protection for oneself. to protect it - is to protect self.
about your afra - botanist
apotheshea was conceived from love and wrapped in warmth by community care taker - black bosom
black bosom is a poly-discliplinary artist, afra botanist, organizer, and educator archiving the inherent healing nature of matrilineal Blackness through processes of ethical collaboration informed by Black feminism and nature. she organizes workshops, provides spaces for communal reflection and spiritual healing, produces publications, archives, exhibition work, and product offerings that are in community with Black and Indigenous plant spirit techniques and rites of passage as a source of refuge, healing, and imagination.
