A Day in the Studio – What I’m Working on This Week

This week in the studio has been all about refinement.
I’ve been testing textures, adjusting ratios, and paying close attention to how products melt into the skin. A good formula isn’t just about ingredients—it’s about how it feels when you use it.
Some days are spent rendering tallow. Others are for whipping, pouring, curing, or labeling. Small-batch skincare means every step matters.
This behind-the-scenes work is what allows me to offer products I truly stand behind. Nothing leaves the studio unless it meets my standards for performance, simplicity, and skin compatibility.
It’s slow work—but it’s honest work.
