I was born in Basel, Switzerland and I attended college at Ecole Technique de la Vallee De Joux as a Bijoutier-Joallier and graduated as a Goldsmith. As a young woman I was inspired by my mom’s natural ways of healing the family by utilizing plants, flowers and oils. I remember when my siblings and I had a fever, she would soak vinegar in our socks to reduce it and it would always work! Now, I'm in my forties and I have rarely taken any over the counter or prescription medicine. I have always depended on using nature to heal my family and myself. My mom is my greatest teacher.
After, graduating college I went to work as a goldsmith at AG Schwanenplatz, exclusive watchmakers in Lucerne, Switzerland. I came to live in New York about (16 years ago) and I decided to marry. Soon, we had a beautiful baby girl named Amber. During those times I decided to take care of my family. I worked part-time jobs and learned graphic design but my interest for holistic health was always my passion.
This year, I decided to take my knowledge of oils and nature to create a line of skin care products. It’s natural for our skin to change at different stages in our life due to the changes that are happening to the collagen and elastin fiber. In order to provide the skin with the most natural and appropriate nourishment that it needs I created a line of oils that are designed specifically for each age group.

Why Organic Oils
The average adult is exposed to 168 hazardous chemicals each day. Chemicals such as phthalates, mineral oils, sodium lauryl sulphate, propylene glycol, and parabens, are all commonly used in cosmetics and body care products, and are known carcinogens or toxins that affect the immune, reproductive, and endocrine systems.
Your skin absorbs things easily. Anything that is applied to the skin-such as moisturizers, lipsticks, deodorants, and other cosmetics are absorbed into the body and into the blood stream just as if you’d eaten it.
Organic products just work better. Non-toxic skin care products are more effective simply because they are made with ingredients that don't disrupt your body's natural state. Since what you put on your skin will end up in your body, treat your body well and you will feel and look your best.
