Skinluvvers

I used to suffer from eczema, rosacea, and constantly dry skin. My lips were often dry and chapped too. Nothing helped, not even the prescription eczema ointment I got from my doctor. 10 years ago I searched online for a better way to handle my skin and read that handmade soap might help. I started making it and my first batches were epic failures, but I persevered and got better at it. Switching to natural soaps, creams, body butters, and lip balms basically solved all those irritating skin problems! I firmly believe it was by eliminating all petrochemical ingredients like the detergents in most commercial "beauty bars" and the mineral oil and petrolatum in most lotions and balms.

I love to cook and experiment with new recipes, so soap making is a natural fit for me. After I became more experienced, I started giving away my soap, body butters, and lip balms as gifts to friends. Friends of friends started ordering... and in 2014 I decided to start my shop Skinluvvers. I make my small batch soap recipes at home and ship them to friends, family, and customers all over the world. In 2015 I started selling at local farmers markets. and the best parts of my day are when someone who purchased soap or a shampoo bar comes back to tell me how much they love it and how much better their skin feels. Because that's what it's all about for me, helping people feel better in their own skin!
