Welcome to Mirall Bruja Occult Apothecary.
An online liminal space of Ritual, Beauty, and Witchcraft. Awaken the Sovereign Self through the magick and wisdom offered by the botanical world of Witchery. Here you will find heart centered offerings that dance with ancient wisdom of folklore, planetary magick, herbalism, witchery, astrology, and of course, the Moon.
Mirall Bruja was created from a deep need to connect the mundane, the natural world, and the magical world into daily rituals and practices to hold and honor the individual. I've taken great measures to work at the behest of the cosmos and alchemical principles to infuse each offering with as much potency and magic as I possibly can. Through this work, my hope is to connect people back to the plants, and back to their hearts. In body, mind and spirit. In the mystical realms, I've been studying the Occult and magical practices for over 15 years, with special interests towards the left hand path, the poison path and plant magic. I was indeed that little girl catching frogs, making potions with sticks and mud, and was a friend to all natural forms, a true animist from birth.
All botanical blends such as teas, incense, and herbal baths are Witch crafted with freshly dried organic, or wild ethically harvested herbs, roots, flowers, and barks gathered by my two hands, or sourced from trusted certified organic partners. Sourcing from fair-trade partners and well treated farmers is a high priority to me. The areas in which botanicals are harvested are rural areas away from city pollution. All offerings are made with years of experience, continual study, and up to date research. I will not release anything to you that I have not worked with myself or studied extensively.
All Ritual and Beauty oils are created with organic essential oils, absolutes, botanical extracts, botanical infusions, and enfleurage in coconut oil or sustainable palm kernel, rather than traditional animal fats. For me and my praxis, working with naturally derived ingredients ensures that you connect to the spirit of each plant, respectfully capturing the natural essence for the desired intent.
Some blends are all organic and others are not, I will mention this in each listing to state their differences. I take great care in sourcing my materials as ethically as possible and with Nature and people in mind. I do not use synthetic fragrances oils, or glitter. I feel that this can dilute the true magical potential of your beautiful Ritual oil used to invoke the delicate senses of the spirit world.
Beauty + Ritual
Each offering is created in ritual, guided by the influence of the plants, the cosmos, and Spirit.
Beauty reveals itself to us in many ways, through people, places, scent, and the natural world around us. It is always there. Beauty is not just about the way we look, but about the feeling it evokes inside of us. Beauty is truly in the eyes of the beholder, for some many reasons. So here, I hope that these offerings enchant your spirit and your senses to see the beauty that surrounds you. And may that begin with your reflection in the mirror of Venus.
Anointing your body, or your magical accoutrement with the spirit of nature to reconnect with your higher and lower self, as well as other divine energies, is an ancient practice that dates back thousands of years. It offers a deeper sense of being into your daily routine, elevating your soul, expanding your spiritual awareness, and awakening your inherent divine nature.
Since the birth of Mirall Bruja Occult Apothecary in 2021, connecting with you all has been such a joy throughout the years, many friendships have been forged since I began offering my creations, and for that I am eternally grateful. So grab a cup of tea, sit back, and enjoy your experience while you are here, and may your journey be blessed with Ritual, Beauty, and Magick.
Dolores
Scent Alchemy
While mainstream culture presents fragrance as a cosmetic to conceal other scents or to make us more attractive, our perfume is intended to serve as a therapeutic connection to nature and sensory ritual. We find botanical aromatics to be gender-less and feel that the scent signature of our skin should be complemented, not hidden. Their design is to be worn as a mood-enhancing indulgence and source of inspiration.
Our perfume does not contain harmful phthalates or propellants to artificially extend the longevity and silage. As a result, these scents meld with the skin and evolve as each layer reveals itself throughout the 4+ hours of wear. The experience is more subtle than synthetic perfumes but with fuller nuance and complexity. The Mirall Bruja's perfume style is unapologetically earthy and full-bodied, comprised of exquisite materials that larger perfume brands rarely use due to their expense and limited availability. The quality of these raw materials is essential to Dolores’s process of designing rare and opulent compositions.
We find distilled essential oils, resins, and plant extracts to be more satisfying to the senses and artful in their manufacture. Our physiology has evolved to understand the messages contained in these plant molecules on an intuitive level and our emotions respond to this language. These perfumes are beyond "clean" and natural -- they are the wild and sublime spirits of the earth.
