Getting back to my roots
On the cusp of turning 50 I found myself yearning for a new path and through a series of events, stumbled upon the world of herbology, aromatherapy, and natural skin care. Having a mother as a Naturopathic Doctor and a husband as a TCM practitioner, herbal medicine has always been used in our home. But somehow a new fire was lit in me to discover using herbs and botanicals in a new way.
After intensive studies I offically became a certified natural and organic skin care formulator and Roots Botanica was born. The most important factors when formulating are the quality and integrity of the ingredients which translates to pure and natural botanicals, the use of organic and ethically sourced essential oils, and the use of only all natural preservatives(when needed). My hope is to continually introduce new formulations highlighting the healing power of Mother Nature.
I am an American expat living in Maastricht, The Netherlands with my Dutch husband, 2 beautiful children, and 2 dogs.
