Galiano Island is located on the West Coast of beautiful British Columbia where amazing natural ingredients grow abundantly almost all year long. We take considerable advantage of our environment which we highly prize. We believe in giving back to the environment we live and work in, and we make every effort to keep waste to a minimum by not providing (and make our customers pay for) fancy packaging. Our products speak for themselves. They don't require a pretty box. Great beauty products should be affordable for everyone.
The most trendy skin care products today are not the ones that include the most exclusive and high priced ingredients making the products almost impossible for most the average person to get their hands on because of the high cost. Consumers are not looking for lab grown ingredients that promise miracles. They are looking for natural, high functioning ingredients with proven track records and results. Ultimately we all want to have beautiful skin without the high cost of ingredients with names that most people can't even pronounce.
