Natural beauty pioneers

Based in Carlsbad California. Founded in 1999 by Evan Healy and David Gordon. Early on Evan drew on the connection between the microbiome of the soil and that of the skin which has taken us to family farms, tribal villages, and women’s cooperatives in Morocco, Ghana, France, Chile, and regions within the US to source healing botanicals. Today our next generation leaders are working to reclaim the earth’s soil by pursuing a regenerative future.

Our Origin Story

David Gordon, Co-founder & CEO,
shares the brand’s origin story.

Evan and I have been doing this for 23 years. We started in August 1999. At that time, Evan was already a recognized pioneer in the natural personal care industry having first shaped the wellness department in her father’s natural foods store in San Diego. That was 1984 – almost 40 years ago. In 1986 she made her first foray to Germany to train with the Dr. Hauschka organization. Not long afterwards she trained as an esthetician and by 1988 she had opened her first esthetics practice.
