My story: Rebecca Roberts,
Skin Care Formulator
& Beauty Therapist
 
Hi everybody, It’s Rebecca here!
This blog is about me.
 
Here’s the Personal stuff

I’m Kinda Shy....First of all, I actually find this very challenging as I am usually a very shy person & I’m not what I’d call a writer. I have also felt over the last few years that I haven’t really had much to say, but now I’m really keen to connect with my skin care audience – which is you people reading this right now!

Love my family... I am married to my wonderful husband Jason. We have just celebrated 20 years of marriage!  I have two amazing kids whom I continue to learn as much from them as they do from me. I love spending time with these amazing humans and I also love spending time with my extended family! My parents, my hubby’s parents, brothers and sisters too! I am also lucky enough to have 1 grandma on my side still alive and my hubby still has 1 Nanna. I really value the time we have with them now as I know they are not here forever.

Music is for all occasions...I love listening to music, especially when I’m in the lab making beautiful skin care products, or going for walks.  I find music helps when I feel anxious about anything too. It can be such a healing force! I love all kinds of music, but one of my faves is Michael Buble!

Love curling up for a good read.... I love reading in my spare time. I am currently making my way through the 8 Outlander books by Diana Gabaldon. I’m currently up to book 5 and loving it!! I have also enjoyed watching the first 2 of the TV series of these books!

Time for a cuppa...I love cuppa time!!! It’s something that helps me to relax and also gets my focus back. A cup of tea can be great in times of crisis to help soothe and nurture. But really, any time is a good time for a cuppa!
 
Vitamin Sea....I have over the last few years become a cruise addict!! I love being out at sea and connecting with nature on all the beautiful stops along the way. The beach is a place of healing for me. It’s like a big outside lung that helps me breathe! While cruising, I have met some fabulous people that I have stayed connected with! It’s also lovely to be waited on and not have to think about what the next meal will be. Love, love, love my cruising!!!
 

A bit of history…
 
I started living a healthy lifestyle from when I was a teen....

As a young teen girl, I was well aware that hormones would start to change and that my monthly cycle would be due to start.  My skin as a teen showed all the signs of the changing hormones with excess oil and lots of regular breakouts.   My monthly cycle never really started properly and when I was around the age of 16 I was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries.

At age 16 I also started my first studies in Beauty therapy and all things skincare.

These things lead me to making some alternative health choices. I started to see a Natural health care professional to help with dietary changes as well as using herbal teas and supplements to balance hormones.

At age 18 I became vegetarian. I noticed a huge difference in my skin and the way I felt in general.

I continued on from there to do more of my own personal studies into using herbs and natural remedies to improve and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Working as a beauty therapist became hard for me as many of the products I had to use and recommend, contained ingredients that were known toxins to the body. I felt very uncomfortable having to recommend these products and could no longer work in salons with toxic skin care.

I worked for a few different skin care companies promoting organic skin care products, which drove me to wanting to create my own skin care, that I knew was safe and not toxic & used organic and natural ingredients. I started creating products when my children were very small. I made them for myself first, then family were interested in using them and then friends!! Everyone loved using them so much and encouraged me to go public. That’s exactly what I did!
 
 
 

Halo Organics & Me...
I am the mastermind of Halo Organics Nurturing skin care. That means I have formulated, created & tested the entire range currently available. I have also picked out all the packaging, done all the labelling design and I stick each and every label on all the finished products. Plus a whole lot more.

What’s super important to me is what ingredients go into the Halo Organics products! I have a procedure that I follow when selecting ingredients which is quite comprehensive. If you would like to know more click here.

I’ll be writing more about the Halo Organics story in the next blog. Make sure you’re on the mailing list if you want to read more.
