Hormones, you say!?? Yes, they can make you mad and feel crazy! Our hormones fluctuate and take quite a toll on us beginning at puberty and continuing well into our '50s. Starting at 15, I suffered from PMS, extreme moodiness, and heavy bleeding. Then after my first child, my hormones seemed to balance. But after my second, at 30 years old, they started to shift again, and I felt like I was on an emotional roller coaster for years…always struggling to find some balance in my life!

I’ve been wanting to discuss hormones here for a long time. No, I’m not a medical professional, but in all honesty, I feel that Western medicine has failed us in this area! So, I did everything in my power to find ways to heal myself. I also discussed hormonal symptoms and treatments with friends and clients who likewise felt off-kilter. We tried a lot of different modalities! Unfortunately, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. But knowledge is power, so here’s your roadmap to keeping your hormones balanced and living your best life in a safe, effective, and holistic way. It’s all about what YOU need for your mental and physical health!

We are gifted with life on this incredible planet, our wonderful Mother Earth. Yet as we go about our busy days, we often forget that we need to take care of her! It is so easy to get distracted. Sometimes we leave our reusable bags at home or request a straw for our iced latte. Sustainability is very close to our hearts at Jenette Skin Care. An Earth-first approach is the foundation of everything we do. We believe that being more mindful of our lifestyle habits in small ways amounts to substantial changes. Our natural resources are dwindling; our air, water, and soil are polluted, and plastic is everywhere. We say enough is enough. We have rounded up some of the steps we take to practice sustainability. Hopefully, they will inspire you to think about how much waste you are willing to put out into the world. And really, a sustainable life is just a life lived more mindfully.

Dying to know how to go about using topicals like retinol? And what the magic is behind Jenette’s formulator-led products that are as luxuriously effective as they are deeply healing? Dive into part 2 of our chat with our founder as we discuss what it truly means to be an all-natural skincare brand, why sustainability efforts are so critical, and what she can’t miss out on to feel her very best every day! As always, it’s about going far beyond skin-deep!

What does it mean to be an all-natural skincare brand?

This is not an easy question, as many would think that as long as you’re using what the FDA would call one 100-percent natural, you’re an all-natural skincare line. However, I think it goes much further. It’s about sourcing and using sustainable, clean, and green ingredients every step of the way. 

The evil queen in Snow White. J-Lo. Kim Kardashian. There’s no way around it, we all age. We lose our youthful glow, that extra pep in our step, and quite possibly a little bit of our mojo, every minute the clock relentlessly moves its hands. And no Instagram filter can fix it IRL. Countless scientists and a booming anti-aging industry have been tackling this matter, and while there’s no miracle cure, there’s also a lot more understanding concerning the root causes of aging. One stands out as a major culprit: Inflammation. Today we discuss this trending — and sometimes alarming — buzzword and give you the skinny on all you need to know (and do) to fend it off and conquer aging. We have a lot of playroom in the small choices we make daily to keep our skin and body radiating with youth.

I sat down with our founder, Jenette Serrins, to discuss her skincare routine, must-have products, and daily beauty regimen. Learn about her secrets to getting great skin, her inspiration for new products, and her unique take on aging gracefully. It’s about making a wholehearted commitment to the health of your body, skin, and mind — inside and out! Let’s get up close and personal!

How did you start on your skincare journey?

When I was 18, I opened a day spa with my mom and learned how to do everything, from body treatments to makeup, massage, skincare, and waxing. I didn’t think that this was a path I would stay on. But while getting my degree in speech communication, I needed to make money, and this was a great way.
