Six Month Anniversary

It seemed fitting at the six month anniversary of the opening of Renew Botanicals Skin Care Studio and Wellness Boutique that I start blogging again.  Yes, it has been six months and what a six months it has been.  Setting up the new skin care studio was a snap since I have been doing it for 23 years,  but setting up the new wellness boutique was new for me.  I had a blank canvas to work which presented so many great opportunities.  Lots of blank white walls gave me the idea of showcasing a different local artist every month.  Getting to work making my organic toxic free products took up a good deal of time but what fun it was mixing and creating new skin and body products.  I expanded my aromatherapy and herbal practice and have quite a nice apothecary right here in the shop.  Then there was the search for artisans who make products that I don't.  They all had to meet my strict criteria of safe non toxic ingredients.  Not only did I find wonderful products to carry but I have met the most wonderful people:  Marie from Unearth Malee Soaps who creates palm oil free organic soaps, Robyn from Shear Miracles Organic Hair Care (my hair never looked so good) and Frances from Petal Pushers who makes the most amazing organic deodorants.

 

As summer turned to fall I started to settle in and  now we are winding up the busy holiday season.  I look forward to the new year and keeping you all up-to-date on tips for skin care, aromatherapy, herbs and more.
