It’s Bonfire week in Lewes, so it feels like the right time to tell you where Menteath really comes from.

Before this, I spent 13 years in humanitarian response: refugee camps, male prisons, aviation disasters. I loved that work, but I carried it home with me. My nervous system forgot calm.

In the communities that welcomed me, I saw herbs and resins burned for healing. When I finally stopped, I started burning them myself, and found my way back to memories of my grandad, Fred, and the fires we sat around at Christmas.

Menteath began in 2019, in his memory. Every bottle still starts there.

On Thursday, Lewes burns to remember. What scent takes you home? Tell me below 🔥

An autumn day, in two rituals 🍂

Morning: Loch Blossom Facial Cleanser
Mist on the hills, cold air on the skin. Massage into dry skin, then lift away with a warm, damp cloth. Sweet orange and wild marjoram wake the senses, while a whisper of peated West Highland wh**ky grounds you before the day begins. Skin is left clean, soft and balanced, never stripped.

Evening: Smoked Bay Body Ritual
As the light drops early, bring the warmth back in. After a hot shower, press the oil into still-damp skin, from shoulders to ankles. Olive, jojoba and wheatgerm oils replenish what wind and central heating take away. Smoked bay laurel settles the mind for the night ahead. On colder evenings, add a few drops to the bath, or smooth a little over the face as a nightly treatment.

For everyday use: cleanse gently each morning and nourish each night. Two simple steps keep your skin barrier calm, comfortable and protected all season long.

Fewer products. More ritual. 🜂🜄

nside Loch Blossom – Restorative Facial Cleanser

What’s actually in your cleanser?

H**p seed, walnut and poppy seed oils make the base, rich in omega-3, omega-6 and linoleic acid, for a cleanse that leaves skin soft rather than stripped. A measure of wh**ky brings oak polyphenols, including ellagic acid. Benzoin, a vanilla-rich resin, adds warmth to the scent.

Simple ingredients, each chosen for a reason.

Autumn is a season of quiet alchemy: fire and harvest, earth turning to gold, rain on the window, and a slower rhythm within. These are the rituals I return to each year.

Which ones mark the season for you?

Earth. Water. Fire. Air. And you, the alchemist. 🜃🜄🜂🜁

Your hands are the oldest tool you own. The Menteath Gua Sha and Facial Roller simply help them speak.

🜃 Earth: the weight of the stone, which asks you to slow down and ground.
🜄 Water: the flow of each stroke, encouraging the look of drained, softer features.
🜂 Fire: the warmth you create through friction, which starts the transformation.
🜁 Air: the breath you take between strokes, which brings you back into your body.

Skin is a neuro-sensory organ, and it listens to touch. Slow, rhythmic pressure signals safety to the nervous system. When the mind softens, the face often follows: the jaw unclenches, the brow releases, and the skin’s glow comes from calm.

Your ritual:

1. Warm a few drops of facial oil between your palms and breathe it in.
2. Roll upward and outward, from the centre of the face to the hairline.
3. Glide the gua sha along the jaw, cheekbones and brow, slowly and with intention.
4. Finish with three deep breaths.

This isn’t a quick fix. It’s a few minutes of turning tension into presence, which is the real alchemy.
