Making people look and feel radiant has always been my devotion. I got my first job at a hair salon when I was eleven years old. I have a diploma in hair design, skin care and business administration and have worked in the beauty industry for over ten years. But even with my years of experience and insider knowledge, I was still suffering from incessant breakouts. I saw everyone from naturopaths to dermatologists to estheticians. No amount of diet change, medicine, or laser treatment was helping. 

Then, when I was 36 weeks pregnant with my second child, I was in a horrible car accident with my 19-month-old daughter in the back seat. We were rear-ended by a truck so big it pushed my vehicle over a median and onto its side on top of the car in front of me. Luckily my daughter was unhurt, but I was left with nerve damage throughout my neck, back and leg. Three weeks after the car accident, I delivered my son via c-section on the same day that my dad (who had been battling cancer) had a prostatectomy. A few days later, I struggled through my back and neck pains to get my son into his very first bath. During the bath I was thinking of my dad and how he got so sick. I pumped a couple pumps of baby body wash into my hand and had a thought—could my dad have gotten sick from something as simple as a product he used every day? I realized that I wanted to know more about what went into the products we use every day. 

The positive outcome from these events was that I changed my approach to health and wellbeing. I became focused on natural wellness and what we’re putting on our skin and into our bodies. I completed a diploma in skin care and worked with a cosmetic chemist to create safe and healthy products. I didn’t want to compromise my wellness goals because I couldn’t find the right skin care—and neither should you. 

Your skin is a beautiful thing. Let’s fuel it with the best ingredients.
