Do you remember what you did during the quarantine months of the 2020 Pandemic?
I was 55 years old and noticed an increasing number of fine lines, sunspots and dullness on my skin. I had been using a product from Korea for my face that I was unable to get due to shipping restriction of the times.
At the same time, I was deep into the research and development of a commercial flower farm. One day, I stumbled upon the fact that flower-derived acids and extracts are excellent for anti-aging.
natural alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) fir cell turnover
amino acids that help boost skin elasticity and firm skin
natural retinoic acid to reduce fine lines, and boosts collagen formation
vitamins A and C, along with fatty acids, which keep skin firm, smooth, and plump
phenolic acids that protect against UV-induced collagen degradation and improve elasticity
anti-inflammatory agents that calm skin, reducing the chronic inflammation that causes premature aging
Rich in squaline, which helps to deeply hydrate, reduce wrinkles, and improve skin elasticity
I took to my makeshift lab and after numerous versions, was able to formulate a hybrid face oil serum that was both potent and gentle. Two years later, our flower-powered hydrosal toner was developed.
It’s now six years into this beauty adventure and I see the silver lining of my quarantine experience… in the discovery of Beauty as Nature intended and the growth of a community of women who, like me, want to look and feel our best as we Grow Beautifully🌸
