I knew in 1991 that I was going to create a natural skin care brand, but there was no one to formulate or teach me how to create the quality of product I wanted. So, I spent years researching and being mentored by the best in conventional beauty and eventually made my own products.
I always knew where beauty was headed and that natural products would not just propel the industry forward, but also saturate the market and confuse the consumer, just like their mainstream counterparts. My vision? Simple, effortless and Effective. Nothing has changed in 30 years.
While it took me longer to launch Elique, and while I had to witness much of my vision materialized by others, at the end of the day, every amazing success Elique has experienced, and there have been plenty, was realized due to my resilience, resourcefulness, determination and knack for making a gorgeous kick-ass product! Our clients have been with us for decades. Our products are their holy grail ,ride-or-die essentials!
I am a licensed Esthetician, Dr. Vodder certified Manual Lymphatic Drainage therapist, Certified Ayurvedic Health & Wellness Educator and Farmer’s Market Chef. I am former owner of Get Waxed, a nationally recognized organic waxing salon, off Abbot Kinney Boulevard in Venice Beach. It was here that I launched my first three Elique Products; Taut, Smooth & Whipped Crème de la Crème.
During this time I was also travelig to NYC from LA collaborating with Crosby Street Hotel and ABC Home to create luxury vanity collections for their guests.
Myself, and my brands have been featured in Vogue, InStyle, Allure, ABC News, WWD, CNN, Huffington Post, Los Angeles Times, Lucky Magazine, Marie Claire, Best Life, Voyage LA, and Edible Westside to name a few… Elique was also noted in the bestselling book No More Dirty Looks
I am a native NYC gal currently living in Los Angeles. I spend my free time snuggling my dog Noodle, reading a great who-dunnit, cooking, and studying anything nutrition, physiology and Ayurveda. I am passionate about my self-growth, creating healthy communities and inspiring you to be happy and healthy. I look forward to owning a flat in Paris and a mountain property where I will invite urban farmers, beekeepers and other lovers of the land to play while I grow food, distill hydrosols, host retreats and offer a home to any animal that needs one.
