After being diagnosed with a liver disorder in April 2000, I began to research environmental toxins and their effects on the body in terms of disease and disorders.

I learned that everything we put on our skin goes in our body and is filtered through the liver. I also learned that many of the mass produced skin products available in stores contain petroleum products and other toxins. I began to suspect that continuous use of such products could be leading to the large increase in the number of illnesses that we are seeing today.

Armed with my knowledge, I began to make better choices about the products I was buying for my family's use - food, housecleaning products, soaps, deodorants, lotions, etc.

After much research, I began to make soap, primarily for the use of my family. Although I was driven by the desire to make a healthy soap, I was totally unprepared for the wonderful effect it had on my skin!

After giving a few bars to some friends, I began to get calls from people who wanted to use it.

Now, we are making all the products found in this website. They are made in my kitchen with healthy, pure ingredients. I hope you enjoy using them as much as I enjoy making them!
