Hippie Gurl Co.

My dad always made us put on lotion before leaving the house, so there was always a big bottle of lotion on my dresser in my room. Throughout the years, I eventually flipped the bottle around and gazed at the ingredients listed. There are a few reasons why I wanted to make my own skincare products in the first place. The heavy, flowery scents of most lotions gave me headaches. Dealing on and off with eczema my whole life, I wanted to find something that provided the long term fix I needed. None of the major brands that claimed "eczema relief" did anything for my itchy legs. Curious and determined there wasn't anything I couldn't learn on my own, I looked online for DIY recipes. It has been so much fun experimenting with different ingredients like shea butter, coconut oil, beeswax and cocoa butter. Though I've been doing a lot of experimenting to find the perfect balance between ingredients, the recipes I have now are just the beginning! I'm passionate about learning and expanding my knowledge. I can't wait to keep experimenting and trying new things with soap making, and perfecting my lotion recipe. I am very very far from being done with my skincare products but I'm proud of what I have created so far! Recently I've been asked to make wedding favors for friends and family members. I'm passionate about creating skincare products that are free of artificial ingredients, colors and fragrances because we should only put the purest things on earth on our skin. To me, it's an act of worship to God to take care of my skin, and I love being able to help others do the same.
