Persephone’s Ball
Skincare (and other Goods) for mortals
Sublime is always simple.
Persephone’s Ball is a primal goods company for people who like their personal space as chemical free as possible. At the center of what we make is ourishing and preservative free skincare created by a chef and grower with reactive skin. Our scentless soaps (and soaps with regionally made essential oils) are made with luxurious butters like Ucuubu and Cupuacu and oils like baobab and pracaxi. Our seasonally shaped candles strictly use domestic wax from independent apiaries.
There’s a whole thing we do with a copper alembic still.
Also, There’s a whole other list of projects.
We’re a micro company on a strict time budget! Our shipping days are consolidated to once a month. Free pick up in Leavenworth, Washington is available.
Oh! what a season!
Persephone’s Ball micro-launched in November and promptly sold out of its available product. We are making more product and will be ready to ship December 3. Because life is not a hop skip and a jump to the goal, payments through our storefront have been delayed until late December. We are working directly with customers and taking payment's via Venmo.
botanical Distillates
Hydrosols for Skin and Atmosphere
We distill botanicals with water to create a vapor that contains the lightest of the plant’s helpful compounds and cleansing terpenes.
The vapor then condenses and returns to a liquid state.
But what do you do with this liquid?
Our Yarrow hydrosol has become an essential for a small (but mighty) group of people.

Waterless and restorative, our balms are limited to plant based ingredients that have science (that we didn’t pay for) behind them.
Why waterless? Turns out, our skin is water impermeable. It’s more like a stack of waxed canvas tarps than it is a sponge.
Also, skincare with water contains a broad spectrum preservative (it must). Broad spectrum preservatives do not see the difference between dangerous bacteria and fibroblasts – the collagen making cells in your epidermis.
Waterless balms are self-preserved and gentle on the skin.
