Some exciting developments happening at Leaf People. In 2019, we were nominated Best in Show at the Indie Beauty Expo for two of our products – the Radiance Face Cream and Stem Cell Hydrating Serum. Following on the heels of that, we’ve recently been selected as a finalist in the 2020 CertClean Clean Beauty Awards for our Men’s Beard Oil and Radiance Face Cream. Results should be announced this spring. We’ve been happily making skincare for 18 years and it’s so exciting for us to be recognized along with other renowned natural brands. We would not be here without your continued support. Thank you!

What is Herbal Skin Care?
