About the Founder
My name is Marcia Oh. I am a happy wife and mother of two beautiful girls. I grew up in the Northeast of Brazil before I came to live in the United States. After living here for almost 20 years, I was diagnosed with Discoid Lupus, an autoimmune disease that affects the skin and scalp. Rashes appeared all over my body and I had to take horrible prescription drugs. I was scared and frustrated. After two years of treatment and no results, I knew I had to take matters in my own hands.
After much research, I found myself completely immersed in the herbal plant studies. I learned that most of the everyday products we use on our bodies contain harsh chemicals and synthetic ingredients. I had no idea I was putting so many chemicals in my body. I knew there was no way this could be beneficial to my health. I was determined to find a healthy natural alternative. Our skin is the largest organ of the body and it absorbs 60% of everything applied to it. That means that those products filled with harmful chemicals I had been using on my skin for so many years were absorbed into my body. The thought alone was unbearable. As a result, this new knowledge gave me inspiration to start creating my own personal care products.
I have learned a lot about plants and their healing beneficial properties to the skin and body in general. After much trial and error, I was able to develop products that not only smelled great, but provide good results without the addition of harmful synthetic ingredients. These products along with a healthy diet drastically improved my skin and have made a huge difference in my life. It has been an amazing and pleasurable journey. My hope is that they will do the same for those looking for safe, affordable, and effective botanical personal care products made with honesty and integrity.
Love & Light,
Marcia Oh
Sustainability
We are passionate about creating a sustainable business. All our products are biodegradable. We only use recyclable packaging and shipping supplies. Our eco-friendly soap boxes are 100% made of paperboard, which are biodegradable and recyclable. We do not use Palm Oil in our soaps. Palm Oil production is one of the world’s leading causes of rain forest destruction and human rights violations. We try as much as possible to be a part of the solution in the conservation of our beautiful planet.
Vegan & Cruelty-Free
We love animals. All our products are 100% free from animal products. No animal testing at all.
Natural & Non-Toxic
What we put on our skin is just as important as what we put in our bodies. The skin is the largest organ of our bodies and absorbs 60% of everything used on it.
We create anhydrous (waterless) skin care products. They have been proven to be more effective than water-base skin care products.
We only use natural antioxidants like vitamin E, natural extracts, and essential oils in our formulations. Also, we are very careful with packaging, so we use airless bottles for our body oils and quality plastic jars for our scrubs and dry products in order to provide stable shelf life.
Our Salt Soaps
We created these Himalayan salt soaps after many years of research and experiments. Salt is a cleanser and healer. It naturally balances pH factors of the skin, which makes it suitable for all skin types. Himalayan salt is considered the most pure salt on Earth. It has a rich mineral content that includes 84 different types such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, copper, iron, and many others. All of them are highly beneficial to our bodies. Himalayan salt is hand-mined, hand-washed, and sun-dried. To top it off, it’s also completely free from pollution.
Our soaps are handmade and hand poured one by one using single molds. They are made from scratch in small batches using the traditional cold-process method. This method preserves the natural benefits of the ingredients in the final soap bar. During the soap making process, the ingredients react together and release natural glycerine, which acts as a moisturizing agent. Unlike synthetic soaps that work more like detergents, cold process soaps are gentle to the skin. They cleanse well without stripping the skin of its important natural oils.
Each of our bars of soap cures for at least 3 months to reach its best quality before distribution. Used accordingly, they last twice as long, if not more, as traditional soaps. These vegetable mineral-based soaps deeply cleanses the skin, strengthens and firms skin tissue, removes dead skin cells, and moisturizes the skin. Our finished product has exceeded our expectations by far. Try our soaps and feel the difference on your own skin.
