Hi, I’m Saira (pronounced Sara—yes, I know, a bit unique 😉 My journey to creating clean, natural skincare started with my 1 year old daughter Bahia. Her eczema issues began just a few weeks after birth, spreading across her tiny face and around her eyes. Watching her struggle broke my heart.
Like so many parents, I turned to the internet desperate for answers. We tried countless products without much success. Her dermatologist prescribed steroid ointments, and while they worked in the short term, I noticed the eczema kept spreading. Applying those ointments twice a day felt wrong. I knew this wasn’t a sustainable solution for her. She was also on daily antihistamines!
When the doctor suggested allergy shots as the next step, I said, “No, sir!” dashed out of that office and didn’t return.
My husband and I decided to look into holistic healing, seeking help from a Chinese herbalist and experimenting with teas and natural remedies. Some helped, some didn’t and caused her to flare up more—but I didn’t give up.
Through countless trials (and errors), research, and even gut-cleansing diets, I kept going. Despite setbacks, I knew I couldn’t return to the steroid treatments. My mom encouraged me to reconsider, but my heart told me there had to be another way.
