Growing up, I struggled with severely dry skin. It wasn’t just the kind of dryness you can ignore or quickly fix with lotion—it was itchy, flaky, and uncomfortable, and no matter what I tried, nothing seemed to work. Every product I bought either left my skin feeling greasy and shiny or made the dryness worse. I felt like I was constantly on a never-ending quest for the perfect moisturizer that just didn’t seem to exist.
The frustration was real. My confidence took a hit, and I hated how my skin felt. I remember standing in the skincare aisle, overwhelmed by all the options but realizing none of them truly catered to what my skin actually needed: deep, lasting hydration that didn’t come with harmful chemicals or synthetic fragrances.
It was during one of those frustrating moments that I decided enough was enough. Instead of searching for solutions, I was going to create my own. That’s when my journey as a “skincare girly” began. I started researching natural ingredients, learning about their benefits, and experimenting with making my own skincare products. At first, it was just for me—a way to finally create something that worked for my skin.
The first product I made was oatmeal soap using organic shea butter, coconut oil, and a few drops of essential oils. I’ll never forget the feeling of relief after using it. My skin felt soft, nourished, and—most importantly—healthy. I finally had a solution that actually worked.
But what started as a personal mission quickly grew into something much bigger. Friends and family began noticing the change in my skin and asking me what I was using. When I told them I made it myself, they encouraged me to start sharing my products with others. That’s how Dipped in Beauty was born—a skincare company rooted in my desire to help others achieve the healthy, glowing skin they deserve without relying on harsh chemicals.
Through Dipped in Beauty, I’ve been able to combine my passion for self-care with my love for helping people. I create products that are organic, handmade, and designed to deeply nourish your skin—because I know how frustrating it is to feel like nothing works. My goal is to make skincare simple, effective, and luxurious, while also educating people about the importance of using products that are gentle and safe for their skin.
Today, I feel so blessed to not only have found a solution for my own skin but also to be able to share that with others. I’ve turned my struggles into a mission, and every time I hear from a customer about how my products have helped them, it reminds me why I started this journey in the first place.
If you’ve ever felt like the skincare industry doesn’t understand your needs, I want you to know—you’re not alone. There’s a solution out there for you, and I hope Dipped in Beauty can be a part of your skincare story.
Thank you for supporting my small business and trusting me to help you take care of your skin. Remember, skincare isn’t just about looking good—it’s about feeling good in your own skin.
With love,
