Our Story
We’re Cam and Jess; two artists who met in college, got married, welcomed two babies, built our early careers in the marketing world serving small business owners, and became business owners ourselves within the first five years of our love story. It’s been a fast-paced journey, and one that has taught us how easy it is for life’s busyness to crowd out creativity. Still, we insist on being intentional about holding space for it.
Through prayer and evident involvement from the Creator of the Universe and the unexpected provision of time and resources, we have been called to bring our newest artistic passion into the business world. We’d love to share a little about how How Majesstic Botanicals came to be, and why it’s worth your time.
As a new mama, my Instagram feed quickly became filled with “crunchy” lifestyle posts. I found myself inspired to learn more about the ingredients our society surrounds ourselves with and how long-term exposure to synthetic additives can quietly add up over time. With that curiosity came a personal challenge: to thoughtfully replace synthetic products in our home with all-natural handmade products, while still keeping things realistic regarding time and finances.
I began experimenting with simple, handmade recipes for cleaning and personal care products that felt approachable, nourishing, and within reach for our family.
After my first baby was born, I would hear again and again, “Be sure not to wear perfume while holding your baby—the chemicals can be irritating to their skin.” I couldn’t help but think, My body has been through so much… can’t I at least smell good? That question quickly turned into another: Why does the beauty industry so often ask us to choose between fragrance and gentleness to our skin?
So I began researching.
That curiosity soon grew into a deep appreciation for essential oils with their simplicity, their benefits, their beauty, and their long history of use. We started blending our own signature fragrances using ingredients so minimal that most people would recognize every name on the label. A botanical perfume and cologne blend for our professional lives, date night, and everyday around the house. To us, that felt like a return to something honest and uncomplicated. We now smelled fabulous and could hold our babies without worry.
As we continued learning, I also began exploring the ways botanicals have been traditionally used throughout history. While we don’t make claims, we invite you to explore our Ingredients page to learn more about the plants our oils are derived from. That curiosity and reverence for our earth’s Creator ultimately became the inspiration behind our wellness blends.
At home, these blends have simply become part of our everyday rhythms. On nights when our little ones struggle to wind down, we reach for Moonlight in the Garden to roll on the bottoms of their feet and chins. On mornings when congestion or discomfort makes an appearance before a work day, we instinctively grab Breath of Life for underneath our noses, and Let There Be Light behind our ears and on our temples for an extra boost of focus. These are not medical solutions; just practices we’ve come to love and look forward to in our own household.
Maybe you’re a tired mama like I was, wanting to feel good and beautiful without placing unnecessary ingredients on your family’s skin. Or maybe you stumbled upon this space and found yourself surprised by how meaningful simple ingredients can feel.
Either way, we’re so glad you’re here. We invite you to explore, reflect, and decide for yourself whether these blends should be woven throughout your daily lifestyle.
Sincerely,
Jess
