Aroma Crystal Therapy Receives Two Nominations in the 2026 alive Awards

We have some exciting news to share: two Aroma Crystal Therapy products have been nominated in the 2026 alive Awards!

Our much-loved Gardener’s Dream Cream has been nominated in the Personal Care & Natural Beauty Products category, while Gardener’s Dream Ohm Facial Cream has been nominated in the Women’s Products category.

For Aroma Crystal Therapy, these nominations are especially meaningful because they recognize products that reflect a philosophy we have followed for decades: creating natural skin and body care with thoughtfully selected ingredients, pure essential oils and, as we like to say, love as the first ingredient.

A Canadian Skin-Care Tradition Since 1989

Aroma Crystal Therapy was founded by Jane Janzen on Salt Spring Island, British Columbia, in 1989. Since the beginning, the company has focused on formulations combining essential oils with botanical ingredients to create distinctive natural skin and body care products. (Aroma Crystal Therapy)

At the heart of that story is Gardener’s Dream Cream. Originally introduced in 1989, Gardener’s Dream Cream has developed a devoted following and has received more than 28 national Awards of Excellence for Best Body & Skin Care Product and Best Aromatherapy Product. (Aroma Crystal Therapy)

Its Signature Scent formulation combines shea butter, sunflower seed oil, grape seed oil, beeswax and arnica with essential oils including lavender, peppermint, rosemary, eucalyptus and cinnamon. Designed for everyday use, it can be applied to dry, rough and hardworking skin whenever needed. (Aroma Crystal Therapy)
