Philosophy

Safe cosmetics for your health and beauty.

 

When a woman takes good care of her skin, she doesn’t have to wear a lot of makeup.  That’s always been my philosophy.  Even when it wasn’t in style, I wore the natural look and spent more time taking care of my skin.  I love the ritual of cleansing, exfoliating and massaging my face with oils and creams that are beneficial and that smell good.  The products I use are natural/organic, safe and free of harsh, toxic chemicals.

My own research led me to want to steer clear of commercial personal care products and start purchasing chemical-free ones.  I read disturbing information about lead in lipsticks, coal tar in mascara and preservatives called parabens that  mimic estrogen in some face creams.  According to the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics, the average American consumer uses ten cosmetic products per day and is exposed to roughly 126 chemicals.  Up to 70% of what we put on our skin is absorbed into the bloodstream and can build up in our tissues.
My intention is to share this kind of information so my clients can make informed choices in an area of our lives where we do have some control.  I’m excited to offer skincare and makeup that is effective yet safe.
If a goddess wore makeup, she’d probably stop by for a look.  Hope to see you soon.
