ABOUT US!
I know this says 'about us' and I do have a small team of experts that I can call upon for advice but mostly Natural Skincare Made Easy is simply... about me. My name is Jane Le Galloudec and I have been making my own beauty recipes since my teenage years in the 1970's, this is my first recipe book started when I was just 15, it's full of recipes for skincare - mostly for acne actually... well teenage years can be difficult.
Over the years I have had many jobs but I never lost sight of my interest in skincare. And for some time I ran a successful handmade soap company in the UK. I continue to spend a great deal of time researching historical skincare recipes and remedies. Nowadays I split my time between research, consultancy and teaching natural soap and toiletry making. In fact I enjoy teaching so much I decided to share alot of my knowledge on the internet for free! What's the catch? Nope, there is no catch. Every week I shall be adding pages on topics such as how to make natural soap, or how to make bath salts, vegetable oils and their use as well as including loads of easy to follow recipes. I am passionate about using natural ingredients in my skincare routine. I don't wear make up very often and I am happy about the wrinkles that I have already got - they are an expression of who I am, what life has done for me and all the amazing experiences I have had. In fact I celebrate being and looking my age! That's not to say that I don't mind if I look bad. Of course I want to look my best - for me that means looking healthy and as good as I can without resorting to dangerous or even slightly dodgy chemicals or worse... surgery. These things are simply not for me.
This is me going through my long hair stage - I stopped colouring my hair with chemical hair dyes because of a major hair crises that included my hair becoming very thin. Nothing I used worked to restore my normally thick hair until... I simply left it alone. I did not use shampoo for a whole year... I stopped dying my hair and I simply let nature reclaim it.
Once my hair was back to it's normal strength I used henna on it and had a hair cut - as you can see from this picture... quite a transformation! Of course it took a year to sort out my problem - natural solutions are rarely quick but the alternatives were making it worse. What else can I tell you about us? It's not for me or anyone else to tell you what is natural and what is not. This is a personal decision for you alone. What I can do is tell you the truth, give you the facts about the ingredients (no urban myths designed to scare you here) and let you make an informed decision about what you want to use in your skincare routine. If you are going to follow my advice or try any of the natural skincare recipes then please read the general disclaimer and any safety considerations first. Contact Us
