Embracing Nature's Healing Power

As a couple from distinctly different parts of the world, myself, born in Zimbabwe and raised in South Africa and Michał my husband from Poland, two worlds apart, but for this Mzansi girl and Ustka boy, Yorkshire has now become our beloved home. I have had green fingers for as long as I can remember and I am certain Michał has a big old green heart, which ignited our shared passion for each other and the wondrous beauty of nature.

Our hearts beat with the desire to heal our bodies and minds through the magnificent power of the natural world that surrounds us. Beyond that, we also long to spread this goodness to the world and nurture our children in a meaningful environment. Hence the name Good Things!

We cherish the healing properties and vitality found in the natural world, the feeling of joy when swimming in waterfalls, picking fruit straight off the trees, marvelling at the sweet scent of the Linden blossoms in summer and Michał being stung far too many times to count, by stinging nettles! Through our knowledge, mistakes and experience, we aim to not only enrich our own lives but also touch the lives of others, inspiring them to embrace the healing embrace of nature.

Consequently,our movement towards holistic and nature-inspired skincare came as a logical and natural evolution, rooted in the journey for wholeness and clarity in both our bodies and the world around us.
Understanding the botanical components and their properties has greatly simplified the process of creating skincare products that are both effective and gentle.

So, even though some of our ‘wild walking’ has not been all bliss. Someone forgot the water bottles or even worse the sandwiches! and now we hungry atop the Yorkshire Dales, we continue to embrace everything that comes with our quest.

Through our shared love and expertise in horticulture and skincare formulating , we aspire to create a legacy that fosters healing, knowledge, and love for the natural world.

OUR PHILOSPHY

Mother Nature's Bounty: Skincare with Respect and Harmony.
There is a profound truth in the saying, "Take enough from Mother Nature, and she will give you plenty." Our bodies are a part of nature, and it is crucial to treat them with the same respect we afford to the natural world around us.

At Good Things Skincare, this philosophy forms the very essence of our products.
Every formulation is crafted with a deep reverence for ourselves and the environment.

We understand that the key to truly effective skincare lies in the harmony between nature and our bodies. By using natural, plant-based ingredients, we honor the wisdom of Mother Nature and her ability to nourish and replenish.

We encourage everyone to listen to their bodies and be mindful of the messages they convey. Just as we strive to be in tune with the natural world, we must also be in tune with our own inner ecosystem. This means not only caring for the skin we see but also nurturing the body as a whole.

Let us all be mindful custodians of our bodies, knowing that in doing so, we are embracing the generosity of Mother Nature and reaping her plentiful rewards.
