About Us

Laura has been fascinated with all things "natural", especially fabrics, medicine, food and cosmetic products, since reading a book about Native American Indians in the second grade (49 years ago!). As a teenager, she received a natural cosmetics cookbook and some raw ingredients as a gift to make lotions and beauty products for herself, friends and family. Laura would go to resale shops and find cool bottles, jars and decanters to package her products. Her father still has the 12" fish bottle that stored the aftershave she made for him! |
| Her interest in natural products has not faded over the years, and, in fact, has become greater as she has become particularly interested in alternative medicine and other healing practices. Having some health concerns of her own, and an especially challenging skin problem her daughter has, led Laura on a path to discover how essential oils may improve or resolve some of these issues. After much research and trial and error, she "invented" an essential oil blend for her daughter's severe skin problem. Her daughter, who had been prescribed a treatment course of the strongest acne medication available (which did not help her), found improvement and relief from the product she made. Laura then invented recipes using essential oils to try to get relief from her own acute pain and Fibromyalgia. The pain relief potions allowed her to stop taking fibromyalgia medication and reduced her pain medication from 4 - 6 pills a day to 4 or less per week. This success convinced her she needed to help others discover the benefits of essential oils in all of their health, beauty and home products. |
