Created by a mom and chemist to solve a skincare problem she couldn’t find a good solution for.

"A jack of all trades is a master of none.”
—Unknown

For years, I was known as a “Jill of all trades.” I excelled in many areas—science, creativity, nurturing, but I struggled with the idea that I needed to master just one.

Then I discovered the full quote:

"A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one.”

That’s when I began to see my journey differently.

I wear many hats: wife, mother, chemist, and creative. Each role has shaped me, and ultimately shaped Trades of Brit.

In 2005, I began experimenting with natural concoctions in my parents’ kitchen. I was fascinated by how ingredients blended, transformed, and healed. That joy led me to earn both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in chemistry.

By 2018, I found myself back in the kitchen, but this time, as a mom of kids with dry, sensitive skin. I began making soap and body care products I could trust. Formulas that were clean, gentle, and nourishing. What started as a passion project quickly became a calling.

In 2021, Trades of Brit was born, a modern apothecary grounded in science and guided by nature.

We create small-batch, artisanal skincare for dry and sensitive skin, using only what your skin truly needs:

• Unrefined plant butters and oils

• Essential oils and herbal infusions

• Clays, natural powders, and nutrient-rich botanicals

No artificial colors. No synthetic fragrances. No harsh chemicals, ever.

Our mission is simple: To restore moisture and soothe distressed skin, naturally and transparently.

Every batch is handcrafted with care, backed by science, and formulated with your wellbeing in mind. We don’t just make skincare, we craft rituals of care, healing, and education.

Today, our collection includes handcrafted soaps, body creams, salves, scrubs, balms, and baby-safe products. Each formula reflects our core values:

• Trust, because what you put on your skin matters

• Education, to empower you through every ingredient

• Transparency, so there’s never a question about what’s inside

• Purity, with formulas that nourish, not strip

• Nurturing, because your skin deserves tenderness

• Excellence, rooted in chemistry, perfected by care

I no longer shy away from being a “Jill of all trades.” I embrace it.
Because when those trades come together with purpose, they become a mastery of something deeper.

Thoughtfully formulated with organic botanicals and made in small batches, because what goes on your skin matters.

Where Nature Meets Cosmetic Science

At Trades of Brit, formulation is intentional. Every product is thoughtfully developed to honor botanical ingredients while meeting modern cosmetic standards for safety, stability, and performance.

We believe skincare should work with your skin, not against it.

Our Philosophy

Nature provides the raw materials. Science makes them reliable.

Botanicals are powerful, but without proper formulation, they can be unstable, irritating, or ineffective. That’s why every Trades of Brit product begins with carefully selected plant-based ingredients and is refined through cosmetic chemistry.

This approach allows us to create skincare that is:

• Gentle enough for daily use
• Stable throughout its shelf life
• Effective without being aggressive

Where Nature Meets Cosmetic Science

We don’t follow trends, we select ingredients with purpose.

Each ingredient is chosen based on:

• Proven skin benefits
• Compatibility with sensitive or reactive skin
• Ability to support the skin barrier
• Stability within the final formula

We avoid overcrowded formulas and unnecessary additives. If an ingredient doesn’t serve the skin, it doesn’t belong.

Created for dry, sensitive skin and formulated in the desert, where we know just how thirsty skin can get.
