Hi, my name is Aileen and here’s my story:
.
Over the past five years, I found that mainstream products didn't work for my own over 50+ skin concerns-especially for my uneven skin tone and hyperpigmentation. Toxic ingredients, non-organic and they certainly didn't reflect my own cruelty-free and eco values. It was also apparent that most skincare brands were focused on a few select skin tones, my melanin rich skin was not included!
.
During this time, while abroad, I decided to try a warm bath filled with raw, silky, spongy seaweed - also known as continental style Thalassotherapy. Guess what? The skin soothing results were almost immediate! I knew this was the "something" that would help others too!
.
Of course, wrapping wet seaweed on your skin isn’t that practical. I thought, let’s think of a better way. So I researched, sought our leading minds in organic formulation + experimented with seaweed extracts and other natural ingredients, and created my first facial "Hydrating Gel." After about a month my face was brighter, more firm, even toned and si SKIN Organics was born.
.
Today si SKIN Organics is made safe in an FDA registered lab. Our own "proprietary formulas” (not private label) include concentrated extracts of seaweed, micro algae, botanicals and other natural bio-actives.
.
We carry the USDA Biobased certification. Plus, the coveted Leaping Bunny certification confirms that we never test on animals. Our skincare line is Vegan so you’ll never find animal by-products on the label or in the bottle- including Bees Wax or Honey (our bees are precious and at risk).
.
Our brand is Inclusive, where a rainbow of different skin tones becomes the norm. Where brands like si SKIN Organics genuinely acknowledge, understand and focus on Your unique identity and beauty needs.
.
I insisted on all of this because I wanted to create something with intention, to be proud of and to share it with you, so you can look your best and feel your best too.
.
si SKIN Organics is the “something” that ignited a passion to find what my skin and spirit needed, and I hope this becomes your “something” too.
.
Always,
Aileen
