Our Story

“Helps with nervous exhaustion.” This is the description for Neroli Essential Oil that really caught my attention. I initially chose Neroli among a list of 30 essential oils that were recommended by Formula Botanica (internationally-renowned natural skincare formulation school) for use in skincare formulation. Neroli essential oil was touted for its vibrant aging benefits and ability to help moisturize the skin.  This was one ingredient that I simply had to have in my products. I was drawn to the concept that organic skincare could be personal, and could be designed based on an individual’s pressing wellness needs.

Up to the time that I started to learn about organic skincare formulation, I had spent so much of my life simply unable to slow down and be in the moment. I stayed busy with jobs, tasks and projects, brimming over with ideas and interests.  Before designing and crafting artisan skincare, I had never established a healthy skincare routine. I pretty much just washed my face with water, sometimes trying cheap brands for a few days a time, and just covered my blemishes and blotchy skin with makeup. I had no idea how to even think about my skin in a different way since no one had taught me about skincare wellness. Most of my beauty education came from television commercials.

The first product that I created was Rejuvenation, which combines the powerful forces of rosehip seed oil, neroli and helichrysum essential oils as well as neroli distillate into a lovely lightweight and cold-processed moisturizer that has an impactful presence. This is my star product and it has undergone several iterations to get it to the gorgeous moisturizer that it is today.  Its impact has been profound. 

While I developed this product, I also started to study about the importance of maintaining health skin. I learned to use less makeup so my skin could breathe and have an opportunity to effectively monitor my bodies’ immune system. Using Rejuvenation every day helped with this. The benefits that came with glowing skin, as well as the aromatherapeutic benefits that came from neroli and helichrysum essential oils, helped me to establish a confidence in myself that took away the motivation to cover my face up. That’s when I simply stopped wearing all makeup except for mascara and blush. It was a deeply transformation and powerfully impactful experience for me. From that experience, true spiritual development could begin in my life, and continues to grow to this day.
