About Teresa

Posted on 01-0701-07 by admin

Hello and welcome to my site!

“Happy New Year!

This morning I realized it’s been a few years since I started this website and I thought it is probably time to update my about me page…..this was written a few years ago.  I guess that makes  20+ years of experience.  I don’t do the markets so much anymore, have slowed down and am just doing a few shows each year and a couple of stores.

I’m here to pass on some of my knowledge and recipes to the younger soapers that are starting and want to learn and get recipes from me ”  Jan 2023

My story began when I was in my 20’s

I started making soap in my 20s, it all started as a health-improving hobby, mostly because I was covered with eczema, and suffering from allergies to some fruits and pollen, cat hair, and dog hair…..well almost everything came up when I was tested for allergies.

So…that was when I began doing my research on natural ways to help with my eczema and allergies.  While researching I also took a few courses on natural skincare and aromatherapy.

It has been a journey for sure, which went from making all my skin care products to selling them at craft fairs, markets, and retail stores.

The first things I made were my soaps including laundry soap, and from there it grew to include making creams, lotions, and bath products.  I continued to learn and experiment with new things as time went on.

What I can teach you

I have learned that skin care as well as diet has made a huge difference in my life and I want to share what I have learned with you as well as give you some recipes to help make a difference in your skincare health.

I am blogging about this as a result of the idea to create a business within the online world. If you want to join me over at wealthy affiliate you can do so.

My goal...

My goal as I wrote above would be to help others with what I have learned.

Making soap and creating recipes for as long as I have, I would like to share some of my knowledge with you.  You will find recipes that I have created and used for many years.

I hope you find this site interesting and helpful and I encourage you to let me know if you have anything interesting you would like to share or want to give feedback on the content within this site.

A word of caution although I can use everything I make, not all two people are alike so do take care, some people can be allergic to scents or oils.

Happy Soap Making

All the best,

Teresa
