Some years ago, I had an accident in the kitchen where I got third degree burns throughout my entire left arm and shoulder. I spent six weeks in the burn unit at NYC’s Cornell Weill Hospital. After being discharged, the pain and discomfort of the burn injuries prompted me to research skin creams and ingredients that could help me feel better. That was when I discovered the healing powers of organic shea butter and exotic oils. Once I realized these special ingredients worked, I immediately began researching how to bring these rejuvenating ingredients to the masses. I started with shea butter creams and demerara sugar scrubs. Soon I expanded the collection to include all natural face care, triple butter soaps, bath bombs, foot scrubs, and even natural products for dogs, inspired by my chocolate poodle, Couscous.

It has always been extremely important for me to source products with ingredients that are natural and in some cases, organic. You will never find pthalates, parabens, or sulfates in my products, which are also made in the United States. As I continue to expand my line, I have found innovative products such as lotion bars that are easy and convenient for traveling, my favorite hobby. I also added traditional healers such as my herbal salves that help relieve stress and more.

I have looked to our wonderful mother earth as the source of healing, and I have only grazed the tip. Join me in experiencing not only great products, but great experiences and beautiful skin. Au revoir!
