About
the
Owner
Lindsy’s passion to find natural soaps and skincare began to grow after having her four boys. Her and her son’s sensitivities to soaps, lotions, laundry detergent, and things they consumed led her to years of research and experimenting. These years provided the knowledge and expertise to develop her own line of products for her family. She considers herself a life-long learner and uses her knowledge and experience to produce safe, effective, and ecofriendly products for all.
Lindsy graduated from Northwestern Health Science University with a degree in Massage Therapy and has been practicing natural living since 2003.
