Delight in heavenly scents for the body and home

elizabethW is a Recharge Spa community partner.

elizabethW defines itself as a truly local perfumery. Our environmental consciousness is directed towards the principles of sustainable sourcing, quality ingredients, well-being, and aesthetics. We have been keeping things simple and local since the 1800s when Elizabeth Wightman hitched up the family wagon and headed out West to become a rancher in the Sierra Nevadas.

Today, we handcraft our luxury collections for bath, body, and home in our Russian Hill workshop. Our carbon footprint is minimal. Our artisans live close by and walk to work; keeping our business in the city, we create and secure local jobs to support families within our community.

Since the beginning, our central focus has been to avoid animal-derived additives in making bath and body products such as bath oils and bath salts, nor do we test on animals. Our products contain essential oils as well as numerous beneficial ingredients such as shea butter, sweet almond oil, cucumber, seaweed and more.

Our packaging can be recycled and encourages sustainability. It meets Forest Stewardship Council standards for the protection of forests and their ecoysystems; harvest waste is minimized, water and animal habitats are protected, and every acre harvested is replenished.

For the home, we use soy wax and lead-free wicks in our perfume candles and offer undyed, natural linens in our drawer liners, hanger covers and other gifts. Clean and simple, these closet solutions are filled with the best grade of natural lavender, free from allergens and not genetically modified.

There are many ways of going green. Living life locally, elizabethW strives to do its part.
