Salicylic Acid in Powder form -- Our product is called Boost. It can be added to cleansers and moisturizers to provide a natural chemical exfoliation. It is a beta hydroxy which makes it molecularly larger allowing it to sit on the surface of the skin to do it's job of breaking up the bonds holding dead skin.

Virgin Coconut butter -- it's really an oil but oh so nice and the toasted nut smell is out of this world! It melts at room temperatures so it's a little fussy, but well worth the effort! Look for new products from the Queen Bee at the holidays with this lovely skin lovin' butter.

Chemicals to Avoid

People ask all the time, what started this "bizzness". Well, it started from a love of skin care products. As the Queen learned chemical compositions, she became concerned about the chemicals used in various every day products. Our skin absorbs both good and bad things more quickly than if they are digested (10x as fast - ask about nicotine patches and birth control if this seems crazy). There are a couple nasty chemicals we hope you can learn to avoid, too. They are Parabens (linked to cancer) and Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (degreaser in the car wash). The Queen is a popular speaker on the benefits of natural skin care products and can easily be reached be email.

Triclosan-- another nasty chemical that is used in hand sanitizers
