How it all started
This journey all started with the birth of my first child and intensified with the pregnancy of my second child. I spent my first pregnancy researching the ingredients in popular baby care products and by my second pregnancy I was already making my own products. It starts by looking at the products you are using in your home and on yourself. Read the label before you buy!
After nearly a decade in the beauty industry, I realized that my body was full of toxins. I was surrounded by thousands of chemicals and came in contact with them all. Breathing them in and absorbing them on my skin for 65 hours a week for 10 years. I have started to remove toxins from my daily life. I am slowly regaining my health. I vow to never compromise my health again in the name of beauty. As a mother and wife, I have the added responsibility of protecting the health of my family.
Bio
I’m Jenny. I’m 30. Mama to two smart and beautiful baby girls and married to my always right handsome husband. He is always right about everything. It is so annoying when you are as stubborn as I am. I come from the most amazing parents a girl could ask for. I also have ahh-mazing In-laws. I am very spiritual. I believe in the Creator and nature. It has given me everything in this life. I am so thankful.
I’m currently a WAHM working part-time from home. I’m a virtual Cosmetology Instructor. I’m not only a licensed Cosmetologist but also a licensed Esthetician and Barber. If I had to choose my favorite field it would be Esthetics. I am a certified Master Educator.
I love learning about all things natural and crunchy. I love DIY. I always have projects in the works. I love lists and organization. I’m definitely some sort of hybrid A personality mixed with B. My color is aqua…I’m obsessed. I will start my vegetable container garden soon and hope to live on a farm in the future. Motherhood obviously changes your life but when you realize that the daily choices we make for our babies can have a major impact on their lives it is then our duty to do right by them. I do not know it all. I am still learning every single day. Every. single. day.
As a licensed Esthetician for the past decade, I have finally created some essential skincare products that no natural home should be without.
I have recently launched my online Shop! I am so excited to finally be able to offer these handcrafted products to everyone. They are all natural and organic. Check out the Shop! Hope to see you at local events and Farmer’s Markets this Spring!
Update: 2022 I can’t sit still so I am opening a salon. LOL Honestly, I just wanted to find a place that didn’t have chemicals like nail liquid for acrylics and toxic polish all over the place. I could not find a non-toxic salon in Idaho, so, I’m opening one to serve those that have taken a stand for their health and are no longer willing to compromise themselves. A place where you don’t even have to question any of the products being used on you. I have done all of the research for you. I have selected the best of the non-toxic world and packaged it up for you. Come and escape for a little bit.
Goals
I want you to join me and see that there are more natural approaches to the super modern lives we live that really work! I want to provide you with easy DIY recipes that can start to transform you into a healthier you. I also want to offer you some all natural and organic products for those that cant DIY. I got you! I would love to connect with other like-minded individuals to learn from you. I am so excited to continue my journey…join me!
Remember, things worth doing aren’t always the easiest.
