THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE ALCHEMY

Meet Terri, Cosmetic Chemist, Holistic Nutritionist + Founder

My own experience with deeply inflamed, reactive skin changed the way I thought about skin care and ultimately led me to begin formulating it. After chasing quick fixes with undesirable results, I learned to focus on barrier support, simplicity and patience, creating the kind of thoughtful, high-performance formulas I had needed myself.

Today, I draw on my background in cosmetic chemistry and holistic nutrition to formulate and handcraft our products in Squamish, BC, with carefully selected ingredients, thoughtful formulations and a lower-waste approach to beauty.
