As a wife, mother, and family nurse practitioner, one of my passions for so many years has been to get away from using harsh products on my hair and skin but I never knew how to go about it. Since I was seventeen, I used a lot of harsh chemicals—relaxers, mineral oils, and cold creams on my skin, hair, and scalp—that caused major damage. As time went by, I started having kids and soon realized that my middle son had developed very dry skin that broke out in bumps and rings and itched so bad; neither prescribed nor over-the-counter topical creams worked. I started eliminating ingredients and mixing natural cold process products using shea butter, olive oil, vitamin E oil, rosemary oil, tea tree oil, neem oil, and other essential oils. Not long after the change, I started to see improved, radiant, less itchy, and hydrated skin. As a family, we used the products on our hair, and our hair grew thicker, shinier, and longer.
