Growing up in a heavenly peaceful countryside, surrounded by picturesque views and unforgettable scents of herbs and fresh fruits, not a single thought of a pollution and dangerous chemicals has ever crossed my mind. Everything seemed so natural and obvious. Thinking of it now I am certain that it was because our lives were synchronized with seasons. Happy times!
Everything had it’s time and place. Everything felt so simple, natural and was orchestrated by The Mother Nature.
Entering an adulthood (and throughout the majority of it) I battled against acne and generally oily but delicate complexion. Year after year I disliked natural soaps, shampoos and face creams more and more. In my defence, I was made believe that only the products recommended by well-known celebrities in the TV and beauty magazines are worth my attention. Nothing more misleading!
I remember the day when, in desperation, I thought ‘Pfff... nothing helps so nothing can damage my skin more, let’s use this soap’. And do you know what? My skin felt good, not dried out but simply good. This is when this seed was planted in my head. It grew and grew over years, until I finally understood that returning to natural skincare, reading labels (both, food and skincare products) and being more conscious and caring of the environment is the right way to live.
Regardless of the reason that brought you here I would like to welcome you and say ‘Hi’. It might be a good place to start Your journey :)
