ROSEMARY & CLARY SAGE BODY WASH
Our award-winning Body Wash is made with only Oils, like Olive and Babassu, and thickened with natural Sea Salt, which gives it a honey-like texture and a remarkable smell. We harvest the purest Rosemary, Sage, Lavender, and Eucalyptus, giving this Body Wash six times the amount of Essential Oils compared to most brands — packed with ingredients that were handpicked and hand-harvested. Unlike other brands there’s nothing synthetic or artificial.
Everything is grown in a garden, not a laboratory. The result is an all-natural, palm-free, velvety smooth, wildly intoxicating shower ritual that’s only possible through fresh-harvested ingredients.
100% Essential Oil fragrance of Clary Sage, Australian Eucalyptus, Mediterranean Rosemary, and California Lavender. The aroma of our Body Wash is camphorous and awakening — inspired by the verdant gardens of Flamingo Estate.
THE ESTATE
A place to bathe, eat, and bask in the garden’s most precious ingredients.
In the early 1940s, a determined pair of young renegades arrived in California to realize their vision of an earthly paradise. High atop the hills of Los Angeles, hidden by a lush orchard and dense gardens, the flamingo-pink estate became a secret haven for wild alchemy in the City of Angels.
Now Flamingo Estate is the home of Richard Christiansen, and, in the spirit of its origins, a radical celebration of pleasure from the garden. We carefully cultivate Mother Nature’s wildest, most precious gifts, at a time when we need them most.
Flamingo Estate is a home and garden. But it’s more than that, too. It’s the story of a lush orchard and pleasure garden on a California hillside overlooking Los Angeles, and the many hands that have helped tend it. It’s a philosophy that champions slow ways and ancient practices. It’s a quest for intimacy — between plants and people, body and spirit, heaven and earth.
Flamingo Estate is a reminder that beauty is not so much the penchant of certain people for exceptional things, as it is their refusal to stand for anything less.
With the help of our friends and a network of incredible farmers, we grow sage for soap and tomatoes for candles. We harvest salt from the cliffs of Big Sur and press olive oil from very old trees and keep bees for honey. In all of it, we’re invested in pleasure — for ourselves and our clients and friends — because we think it’s a path to radical change and cataclysmic beauty.
Things at Flamingo Estate take time and patience, and they’re meant to. There’s dreaming involved, and growing, and trial and error. There are skilled hands of expert purveyors at the helm of every bar of soap, every drop of oil, and there’s wisdom imbued in each product’s story. If something feels expensive here, it’s because these things are rare.
If you’re here, it’s because you believe in the power of the human hand, in collaboration with Mother Nature, to make beauty. We’re the ardent dreamers, the fantasists, the wizards in the workshop, and we’re all doing it for the marvels of the natural world.
