The Story Behind Iris Dahlia Apothecary: A Journey of Passion and Purpose

Welcome to Iris Dahlia Apothecary! As I sit down to write this, I’m filled with gratitude for the journey that has brought me here and the incredible support of customers like you. I wanted to take a moment to share the story of how Iris Dahlia Apothecary came to life—a story rooted in self-care, creativity, and the belief in the magic of handcrafted products.

The name Iris Dahlia is more than just a title; it’s a nod to a part of my personal history. For over 20 years, it’s been my gamer tag, a playful reminder of my love for video games and geek culture. As someone who has always loved blending creativity with strategy, it felt like the perfect name for a brand that merges handcrafted artistry with thoughtful, intentional products.

For two years, I honed my craft, starting with cold process soap as a way to manage my eczema and psoriasis. Creating my own soap was a game-changer, giving me control over the ingredients I used and offering relief that store-bought products couldn’t provide. What began as a personal journey of healing quickly grew as I started experimenting with other products like bath bombs, scrubs, and lotions. The feedback from family and friends was overwhelmingly positive, and I found immense joy in seeing how my creations could make a difference in their lives. It wasn’t long before I realized I wanted to share these creations with more people, turning my passion into something bigger.

Thus, Iris Dahlia Apothecary was born: a small, woman-owned business dedicated to crafting products that bring a little magic and luxury to everyday self-care routines.

Every product in Iris Dahlia Apothecary is handcrafted with care, inspired by a love for natural ingredients, herbal apothecary, and a sprinkle of pop culture magic. From soothing bath teas to indulgent candles, each item is made with the intention to nurture, heal, and elevate your self-care experience.

Sustainability and mindfulness are at the heart of what I do. I’m committed to using eco-friendly ingredients and packaging whenever possible, ensuring that every purchase feels good for you and for the planet.

Every step of this journey has been made possible by the incredible support of my customers. Whether you’ve been here from the beginning or are discovering Iris Dahlia Apothecary for the first time, I’m so grateful you’re part of this story.

Here’s to continuing to grow, create, and share a little magic with the world—one bath bomb, candle, and scrub at a time.

Thank you for supporting Iris Dahlia Apothecary. Your love and encouragement fuel everything I do.
