About Moments of Light

A botanical, rose-hued sanctuary for women seeking slow, gentle skincare + soulful living.

A Gentle Invitation

Moments of Light is your quiet botanical pause — a place to breathe, steep tea, soften your pace, and savor beauty in simple moments.

Each issue is a tender blend of herbal wisdom, faith-filled calm, and cozy creative rituals designed to help you reconnect with your inner light—naturally and beautifully.

🌿 What You’ll Find Inside

• Botanical skincare recipes & herbal DIYs
• Faith-centered reflections and seasonal devotionals
• Journaling prompts for clarity, rest, and gratitude
• Creative inspiration rooted in flowers, plants, and nature
• Gentle encouragement for slow, intentional living

Each issue is meant to be tucked into your journal bag, savored with your morning tea, and revisited whenever you need stillness.

Hi, I’m Carrie.

My journey into handmade skincare began with my son, who has Down syndrome and underwent heart surgery as a baby. In that season, I discovered how easily women—especially mothers—pour endlessly into others while forgetting themselves.

When I began crafting gentle, herbal skincare for him, the process became my self-care. Infusing flowers, blending oils, and stirring butters helped me breathe again. It grounded me. It healed me.

Now, I help women over 40 rediscover that same nourishment through simple botanical skincare rituals and soul-soothing self-care practices.

“I believe in slow rituals, warm cups of tea, the wisdom of plants, and tiny moments of stillness that help women feel deeply cared for.”

My Work & Writing

I am the author of six books, including Carrie’s Herbal-Infused Skincare Cookbook. Readers describe my work as accessible, encouraging, and beautifully detailed.

“Very easy to understand… full of important details… I would recommend it to anyone interested in essential oils.” — Amazon Review

“Not just a recipe book — a guide to herbs and oils. My daughter’s eczema has improved so much.” — Amazon Review.

My writing has appeared in Wellbeing Magazine, and my work has been featured in the October 2022 issue of Hippie Magazine and the November 24 issue of Reader’s House Magazine.

Through books, courses, and my membership program, I teach women how to create personalized, botanical skincare rooted in herbal wisdom and seasonal rhythms.

My Philosophy

Skincare should be nourishing, not overwhelming.
Self-care should feel sacred, not stressful.

I believe in slow living, herbal comfort, faith-filled practice, and the restorative power of tiny, beautiful rituals.
