In Person
OnlineFor over 15 years, Heliotrope SF has created high-quality, all-natural products – made in the Bay Area in small batches – using simple, organic ingredients. Founded by Jonathan Plotzker-Kelly, his experience in product development and his work with small chemists have brought natural, well-made, and fragrance-free skin care to the market. Heliotrope is passionate about natural skincare products that soothe, moisturize, and protect using effective, carefully selected ingredients that are healing and nourishing. Heliotrope products are designed for all genders because you deserve to Feel Good in Your Skin! Jonathan has spent over 40 years in retail, starting in his hometown of New York City as an assistant buyer at a major department store before working with Bay Area brands like Pottery Barn and Bare Escentuals. After his most recent role at Good Vibrations, he decided to do something on his own. Jonathan was guided by the best advice he ever received at 25 from his partner – that he needed to moisturize – and that advice has served him well ever since, along with good genes.

Frankincense & Rose Geranium Oil Serum
You only need one product to replace multiple moisturizers. It’s formulated with essential oils and botanical extracts to deeply hydrate and nourish the skin. Because it’s an oil, it doesn’t require emulsifiers and absorbs quickly. A little goes a long way and sinks in surprisingly fast. Balance and heal with calming frankincense and rejuvenating rose geranium and calendula essential oils. This natural, non-comedogenic serum balances and tones oily skin, soothes blemishes, and relieves dryness and irritation. Nourishing omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, along with powerful antioxidants, mean daily use will keep your skin in tip-top shape. 2 oz.
Cucumber & Aloe Aftershave Balm
This is one of JP's absolute favorite Heliotrope products. It's not just an aftershave, it's a beautiful moisturizer. It's lightweight – absorbs really quickly – and is full of delightful ingredients like pure cucumber, which is cooling and anti-inflammatory; and aloe for healing. Also use it after sun exposure to cool your skin and start the healing process. It's really delightful — it smells wonderful, goes on smooth, and is really great for you. Your skin will feel cool, soft, and hydrated. Or just slather it on your face even if you don't shave – it's a great morning pick-me-up and helps fight puffiness. Great for all skin types. 2 oz bottle with pump.
Aloe & Coconut Oil Moisturizing Liquid Hand Soap
I love this hand soap so much..." says JP “that I have it at every sink in my house." Also all the restrooms at the ArtHaus (the Heliotrope studio), AND quite a few cafés, restaurants, and salons in the Bay Area proudly use it in their restrooms (buying in bulk by the gallon and doing their own refills)! This thick and rich liquid hand soap isn’t your typical cleanser: it’s non-drying, sulfate-free and will leave your hands soft (and extra clean). Put one of the attractive glass pump bottles at every sink in your house, and don’t be afraid to use whenever you need to wash up. 16 oz glass bottle with pump.
Jojoba & Avocado Body Balm
This rich "butter" is full of healthy oils that naturally moisturize and nourish all skin types. Jojoba is closer to natural human skin oils than any other plant oil. You’ll love the dense, decadent texture and the way it feels when you slather it on your skin. Just open the jar and try it. 8 oz.
Soy & Shea Travel Massage Candles
One of Heliotrope’s best-selling products for the last fifteen years. These candles double as massage oil. Light them, and in a short time there'll be a little pool of oil – warm, not hot! Pour it right on the target area – it really gives you that warm fuzzy feeling. The warm massage oil is good for your skin, with pure essential oils – no synthetic perfumes or colors added. Plus, the new 2 oz tin has a convenient pouring spout!
Aromatherapy Spray Mist for Body & Home
Healthy body, healthy home. Aloe, white tea, and pomegranate, along with a host of other all-natural oils and extracts, combine to create an all-purpose aromatherapy mist. The soothing yet stimulating scent of botanical ingredients will calm, soothe, and revitalize you and your home. Spritz all over your body to feel fresh and energized; organic ingredients mean it’s safe for all skin types. Spray into the air and on linens to evoke a balanced and harmonious environment. 2 oz amber glass bottle with fine mist sprayer.
