Monarch Botanika - New Skincare Line Features Milkweed Seed Oil

Ventura County-based Monarch Botanika is a new skincare product line that features the healing and rejuvenation benefits of Milkweed Seed Oil. The use of Milkweed Seed Oil to address skin conditions dates back to early Native American traditions.

The first Milkweed-based cream was introduced in 1892. It was only recently, with the increased interest in natural and plant-based ingredients in skincare products, did Milkweed Seed Oil begin being recognized for its natural and nourishing qualities. Monarch Botanika’s Facial Cleanser and Facial Moisturizer are rich in cold-pressed, hand-harvested Milkweed Seed Oil that contains essential Omega 6 and 9 fatty acids and a rare plant-based Omega 7, which promotes balanced hydration and replenishing skin recovery. They also contain Aloe and Vitamin E, Eucalyptus, Spearmint and Peppermint. Monarch Botanika products are Vegan and use only plant-based ingredients, and are sulfate and paraben-free with no dyes or toxins.

In 2022, the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) placed monarch butterflies on its "red list" of endangered species, a warning that the species is in decline and at risk of extinction. Five percent of each Monarch Botanika purchase goes to Monarch butterfly conservation efforts, including creating and restoring habitat in Southern California.
