Protecting and nourishing the skin we're in!
When I was in my 30s, I lived an active outdoor life on the water, in the South Florida Sun. The message of protecting your skin from the sun had been out, but I can honestly say I was not as diligent as I should have been in protecting mine. Good genetics and youth kept my skin's appearance healthy until the age of 40 when the signs of sun damage began to show and progress exponentially. I moved to California in 2007 and instantly noticed how the change in climate made it difficult to keep my skin moisturized. I had tried many varieties of drugstore lotions that never seemed to work well or last long. I splurged on a variety of boutique body butters but quickly realized that this option was not sustainable because of the cost. Finding a body butter with the right fragrance or no fragrance at all was discouraging as well. My journey in California took me in the direction of studying healing botanicals, essential oils, and their benefits on the skin. After years of research, I decided to try my hand at making blends of my own product. I gifted samples to my friends and family for 2 years before turning this product line into a business.
My goal is to provide accessibility to quality healing and moisturizing products that are customizable and sustainable on a budget. I also want to deliver the message that skincare is essentially composed of three fundamental concepts; 1. Cleansing 2. Moisturizing and 3. Protecting. I am a supporter and promote skincancer.org
