Golden botanical face oil dripping onto fresh berries for the Wild Berry Botanical Face Serum

Meet Wild Berry: Our New Botanical Face Serum

The Glow Your Winter Skin Has Been Asking For

If your skin feels tight by lunchtime, looks a little dull in the mirror, or drinks up moisturizer and still asks for more, you're not alone. Cold air outside and dry heat inside pull moisture from skin all season long.

That's why we created our newest addition to the Love That Face collection: the Wild Berry Botanical Face Serum. It's a rich, antioxidant face oil made with 16 nourishing oils and botanical extracts, and it's available now for pre-order.

Think of it as a smoothie for your face. Pomegranate, raspberry, cranberry, blueberry, grape, plum and sea buckthorn seed oils come together with rosehip, squalane and meadowfoam to leave skin soft, plump-looking and glowing.

Why We Made It

At Herbs and Mylk, every product starts with one question: what does your skin really need? Our customers kept telling us they wanted one simple, powerful step to bring their skin back to life in the colder months.

So we went back to our workbench in North Kingstown, Rhode Island, and blended a serum we'd reach for every single day. Like everything we make, it's hand-blended in small batches, never mass-produced.

We're a heart-led, family business with four Best of Rhode Island wins for locally made beauty products. This serum is our way of giving you real, results-focused skincare made with care.

Ingredient Spotlight: What's Inside and Why It Matters

Every oil in this blend has a job. Here are the stars of the formula.

Pomegranate seed oil. Rich in antioxidants, it helps defend skin against everyday environmental stress and supports a smooth, healthy-looking complexion.

Sea buckthorn seed oil. A vibrant oil packed with fatty acids and antioxidants that brings back radiance to dull, tired-looking skin.

Rosehip oil. A skincare classic loved for helping soften the look of fine lines and support a more even-looking tone.

Squalane and meadowfoam seed oil. These two lock in moisture and keep skin soft and comfortable all day, without feeling heavy or greasy.

Raspberry, cranberry and blueberry seed oils. The wild berry heart of the formula, bursting with antioxidants to keep skin looking fresh and healthy.

White lupin seed extract. Helps support a firmer, bouncier-looking complexion.

Emu oil and sunflower seed oil. Rich in fatty acids similar to skin's own natural lipids, helping skin feel resilient and nourished.

Boswellia (frankincense) oil. Helps calm the look of redness and adds a warm, soft botanical scent.

Vitamin E and rosemary extract. Antioxidants that protect skin and help keep the oils fresh in the bottle.

Face Oil or Serum? Why Not Both

We call it a serum because it's concentrated and made to treat your skin, but it's built entirely from oils. That means it doesn't just hydrate for an hour; it helps hold moisture in and supports your skin's natural barrier.

It's a beautiful fit if your skin is:

  • Dry, dehydrated or tight, especially in fall and winter
  • Dull or looking tired
  • Mature and showing fine lines
  • Stressed by cold weather, indoor heat or screens

If you're new to face oils, don't worry. Squalane and grape seed oil keep the blend lightweight, so it sinks in quickly and layers easily under moisturizer and makeup.

How to Add It to Your Routine

Use it morning and night in four simple steps:

  1. Cleanse. Start with a gentle cleanser like The Face Bar with turmeric, honey and clay.
  2. Tone. Mist or sweep on our Rosewater Facial Toner and leave skin slightly damp.
  3. Press in 3 to 4 drops. Warm the serum between your fingertips and gently press it into your face, neck and chest.
  4. Moisturize and protect. Follow with a moisturizer like our Botanica Blue Face Cream if you'd like extra hydration, and always finish with SPF during the day.

One 2 oz bottle lasts up to 5 months with daily use, about twice the size of most face serums.

Pre-Order Now: Ships by November 8

The Wild Berry Botanical Face Serum is $98 for a generous 2 oz bottle, and all pre-orders ship by November 8, 2026. Here's why we recommend reserving yours now:

  • Be first in line. Pre-orders are bottled and shipped first, in the order they're received, before the serum is available to everyone else.
  • Our first batch is limited. Because we hand-blend in small batches, once this batch is gone, the next one takes time to make.
  • Glowing skin in time for the holidays. Your bottle arrives right as the colder, drier months set in, when your skin needs it most.
  • You help us make exactly what's needed. Pre-orders tell us how much to make, so we waste nothing and every bottle reaches you fresh.

Reserve your bottle today and be one of the first to experience the glow.
