About Me

 

The unity of artistry and chemistry creates extraordinary products that simply and naturally pamper skin. My soaps and skin care products are designed to nourish, protect, and restore skin, scalp, and hair to their natural balance and beauty – soft, moisturized, and healthy. I believe that what we put on our bodies is as important as what we put in them. I use only the finest vegetable and nut oils, organic when available, and sustainably harvested. I make every batch from scratch, with uncompromising attention to quality, right in my kitchen. Every bar of soap, jar of body butter, bottle of massage oil, or pot of lip balm is unique and special.

 

My friend Bridget taught me how to make soap in 2002. As a skeptic with lifelong skin problems due to allergies and sensitivity to fragrance and colorings, I had little faith that anything would make a difference. To my surprise and delight, however, all my skin problems went away after I used the natural soap we had made! I was converted and started studying and experimenting with different oils, recipes, and formulas. And I discovered essential oils. Was it really possible that someone like me could actually enjoy a wonderfully-smelling soap without harming my skin? Yes, it was, and is. I wanted to share this with the world.
