My philoSophie: saturated fat is where it's at! 

I have been selling natural skincare products online since 2003, but everything shifted in 2016.  After developing Hashimoto’s thyroiditis - which led me to the pro-metabolic work of Ray Peat - I discovered how pervasive and harmful polyunsaturated oils are, and I immediately decided that all PUFA-laden products had to go.

Once you know something, you can’t un-know it, so I couldn’t in good conscience continue to offer them to my customers.

Then I found there was nothing to replace them with, so I had to create my own.   

If you’re curious to understand more about why PUFA content matters in skincare, I’ve written about it here.
