Hi! I'm Kaela!
Thanks for checking out Pip's!
To be honest, this journey kind of started by accident, thanks to the extremely dry Colorado weather. And Pip's became reality thanks to the extreme encouragement from my husband & sister. For their support and encouragement I am truly grateful for!
So here's story
We moved to Colorado in 2021, and yes, it IS beautiful - you should totally visit!
Colorado is also very dry. I learned pretty quickly that moving from the humid east coast to the dry mid west would bring out aspects of my skin that I never saw before. Like eczema. It started out as just a few dry patches, but before I knew it I had open cracks on my hands, arms and legs. It's went from annoying, to painful, to a potential health hazard.
I tried steroid ointments, which helped the open cracks to heal but still left me with dry patches. After a bit a relief those dry patches split open again, and the never ending cycle of annoying, itchy, and painful continued. So, after so much researching and a couple of online natural skin care courses, I decided to try a more holistic approach.
Statement time: I do not believe in the "all or nothing" mindset. I think holistic/natural living is great, but I also believe there is a time and place for traditional medicine. And every BODY is different, with different needs.
I created Pip's, after the extreme encouragement to do so, because I truly feel a difference in my skin using the lotions and creams I've made and would love to share that with you! Some of the things I really felt passionate to include with Pip's is ethical sourcing, recyclable packaging, and clean ingredients.
I hope you give some of Pip's products a try and reach out to let me know how they work for you!
