The Origin of Natural Sentiments

In the middle of our busy lives, Erick and I realized something was missing. We’ve always been careful about what we eat—choosing organic, nourishing foods—but when it came to what we were putting on our skin, we were unknowingly exposing ourselves to chemicals and synthetic ingredients that didn’t align with the care we gave our bodies.

As I started thinking about how those chemicals might be affecting me, especially while trying to conceive, I realized I wasn’t alone in this struggle. My skin, constantly dried out from long hours working in the hospital and the constant hand washing, wasn’t getting the care it needed. No lotion was hydrating enough, and without excessive chemicals, nothing seemed to be working. I knew there had to be a better way.

That’s when I turned to my father-in-law, a chemist with decades of experience, to create something truly natural—something that would not only nourish the skin, but also support our health and well-being even in the most sensitive areas. But the idea didn’t come out of nowhere. As a little girl, I remember my great grandmother mixing different oils and applying them to my body after baths. At the time, I thought it was a bit strange when everyone was using heavily scented body lotions, but as I grew older, I realized something profound: my skin had remained soft, youthful, and healthy over the years. The oils she used were the secret I never truly appreciated until now.

So, when I set out to create something special, oils were the obvious choice. Oils, with their deep, natural ability to hydrate and nourish, felt like the answer—not just for my skin, but for anyone seeking something pure and truly effective.

We created this brand because we believe that everyone deserves the peace of mind that comes with knowing the products they use are safe, effective, and made with love. This is our way of sharing that solution with you, honoring the legacy of wisdom passed down through generations. From our family to yours, Natural Sentiments.
