✨ Awesome Announcement! Essential Starr joins Lavender Hill Botanicals 🌿

✨ Essential Starr Transitions to Lavender Hill Botanicals

Continuing the Legacy of Light, Love, and Botanical Beauty

Dear Friends and Valued Customers of Essential Starr,

We are delighted to share some exciting news! Effective October 21, 2025, the Essential Starr product line — including our beloved blends and essential oils — is joining forces with Lavender Hill Botanicals, part of Windy Hill Farms, owned by the wonderful Chris and Katie Miller family in the beautiful Amish countryside of Pennsylvania.

After 30 years of creating, formulating, teaching, and sharing the gifts of nature through Essential Starr, it brings me great joy to see these products continue to blossom in such loving and capable hands. When I met Katie earlier this year and visited her stunning 80-acre lavender farm, I was immediately touched by her passion, her craftsmanship, and her beautifully curated farm shop filled with lavender treasures.

As we spoke, it became clear that our visions were aligned — to share the healing power and joy of essential oils with integrity, purity, and heart. Together, we saw how Lavender Hill Botanicals could expand to include many of the signature blends you've come to love from Essential Starr, alongside Katie's exquisite lavender creations.

This transition feels perfectly timed — arriving with the season of harvest and light, coinciding with Diwali, the Indian Festival of Lights. It's a beautiful symbol of illumination and new beginnings, which has always been at the heart of my work with essential oils.

Please know that I'm not going away. I will continue to collaborate with Katie during this transition, ensuring that our formulas maintain their quality, integrity, and energetic signature. I will also remain available for essential oil consultations and guidance, continuing to share my 30+ years of aromatic and herbal experience.

The Essential Starr 5ml essential oils will still carry the familiar label, while the blended products will now appear under Lavender Hill Botanicals — the perfect evolution of our shared vision for natural beauty and holistic wellness.

Thank you, dear friends, for your years of loyalty, inspiration, and trust. We look forward to seeing you continue your aromatic journey with Lavender Hill Botanicals — where the legacy of Essential Starr will shine on in new light.

With warmth and gratitude,

Patricia Starr, LMT, RA, SET, SCI

Detox at Home -- And Enjoy

Detox at Home -- And Enjoy

Taking care of oneself on a daily/ weekly basis is critical for a healthy lifestyle...  Don't you clean your home?  clean your car? clean your dog!?  I highly encourage my clients to take good care of themselves.. There is nothing better than a nice warm Detox and/or Relaxing Bath with dead sea salts and epsom salt.  And yes -- please, if you are going to buy epsom salts -- only buy the plain epsom salts at the store... NOT any with fragrance -- why?  Because usually they have synthetic fragrances, and they are more toxic than healing!

   We carry some beautiful Bath Salts -- that are a real treat -- you can combine them with your own epsom salts, and stretch your purchase -- we provide two fragrances:

                      Relaxing Bath - Angel Whispers - with French Lavender, Ylang Ylang, Neroli

                      Detoxing Bath - to Relieve sore muscles  with Lemon, Grapefruit, Cypress

   It is good to dry brush prior to getting in the tub, as your lymph system is then stimulated for better detoxing.  Follow the diagram for proper brushing.  If you are using essential oils -- ALWAYS put them with a carrier oil at 3% dilution, dry brush first, then put the oil all over in a thin layer, and brush again before sitting in the tub. 

Here are some of the attributes the essential oils bring to your routine:

Tongue scraping is best in the morning after the lungs have pushed out what is not wanted to the base of the tongue while you have been sleeping.   In addition, I'm sure you have heard of oil pulling... well that is fine... but I prefer using 3 -4 drops of my mouthwash in 1/4 cup pure water, and then swish a bit in your mouth quite vigorously, then spit it out.  Repeat, until the solution is used up.

Rebounding can be done on a small trampoline, or a large yoga ball, or a vibration plate.  it is up to you and your resources.

After your bath, refresh yourself with a nice spray of hydrosol,
followed a nice body lotion or massage lotion,
and our beautiful natural deodorant

Get plenty of rest and plenty of water.... Enjoy your water with a topping of Rose Hydrosol 

 

Now!  than is taking Care of Yourself!!!  Congradulations!!
