About Karen Recinos
Chief Creator
Quality, not quantity
"I work hard on ensuring that I produce top quality products. I don’t want to sell money-saving junk. I want longevity - not just a quick buck. I want my customers to feel they’ve purchased a great product."
Meet Karen Recinos, our Chief Creator and the driving force behind our commitment to artisanal excellence. With a foundation deeply rooted in a childhood filled with creativity, Karen's journey into crafting began under the guidance of her mom. From sewing and crocheting to painting and molding plaster animal footprints, Karen learned an array of crafts that laid the groundwork for her artistic endeavors.
Her fond memories of those cherished times are a testament to the invaluable lessons passed down by her best friend—her mom. Embracing a holistic lifestyle, Karen incorporates the principles of water conservation, composting, and recycling into her daily life. Even while living on well water, she discovered the beauty of minimizing waste and leaving no trace behind.
Karen's commitment to a chemical-free existence led her to a profound revelation—she could take control of the ingredients that touch her body. This realization sparked her journey into soapmaking, a passion project that has since evolved into crafting an array of natural products, including beard care items, lotions, and lip care. Always pushing boundaries, Karen is continually building and creating new recipes, showcasing her love for innovation.
In her role as Chief Creator, Karen's dedication to a natural lifestyle is not just a profession but a way of life. Her love for what she does and her commitment to being as natural as possible resonate in every meticulously crafted product. Join Karen on this journey of creation and embrace the beauty of living naturally.
