What made you want to be an entrepreneur?
February 2004…. A company is born

The company was created by Cleo Anderson, out of the need to find and use natural unscented skin care on her new born baby. Searching all over the internet and the local commercial stores, she couldn’t find what she needed to stop her baby girl from screaming during and for a short time after every bath. Her husband at the time, suggested that she create the skin care herself. So, she did. Starting this business as a necessity for her new baby, Cleo now finds herself pursuing higher goals as she begins to support her family alone. The mother of three girls, Cleo is now a single mother and determined to stay home with her baby and be home when her school aged children get home. Cleo is planning to take her company to the top of the success chain. Creating her own success story, Cleo desires to be a good role model for each of her three daughters and women all over the world.
