Toward the end of 2011, I found out I had a medical condition that could have possibly been linked to environmental factors, including what I put on my skin.
It was the first time that I truly realized even the subtle perfumes I wore on date nights, all the way to a big brand name body butter I lathered all over my skin regularly could potentially be harmful. Harmful, was a word I would have never dreamed of when talking about “protecting” my skin, however as my Doctor’s reminded me that even my skin was an organ and needed to be treated like such, unt
il there was a diagnosis. I went home from the Doctor’s and started to look at the many big-named products I have accumulated and couldn’t believe that I couldn’t even pronounce half of those chemically induced and dyed ingredients. After much extensive research while being bed-ridden, I have put together natural and organic products into body scrubs that have actually not only made my skin look and feel better than the big named products, but also I know that the fresh ingredients are in no way harmful to my skin. Since my exhaustion levels were at an all time high, the shower was my vacation from my bed and the couch. I decided to make showers an experience and a ritual that made me feel fresh, renewed and as elegant as I could. After using my own scrubs for just about 5 months, I have decided to share them with all of you beautiful women, so you know that the products you will put on your skin that make you feel feminine and pretty, don’t have to harm your body. Enjoy the first body scrub, “Chantilly Lemon” from Skin Glow to launch soon on Etsy.com and make your showers an enjoyable experience too!
