ABOUT US

 My Story
Established in 2011, Brazen Bee Beauty is a proudly small, USA-based business born from pure passion and necessity.

I’ve been studying herbs and nutrition for over 27 years. In 2011, after years of frustration with skincare products that promised everything and delivered nothing, I started making a weird powdered face wash in my own kitchen.


It cleared up my stubborn acne — then it cleared up all my friends' skin too. Before I knew it, people were knocking on my door asking if they could pay for more. Without meaning to, a company was born.

I actually purchased my first ingredients with food stamps — turning $300 in food assistance into $1,500 worth of handmade skincare.
That moment changed everything.


I realized that my years of experience and deep love of plants could create a better life for my children if I was willing to work hard.

Fast forward to 2024: I've had three store locations in beautiful Manitou Springs, Colorado, and now, we're back in Texas, where Brazen Bee first began.

I have extensive experience with:

  • Hidradenitis Suppurativa (H.E.)

  • Eczema and Psoriasis

  • Acne (for all ages)

  • Highly Sensitive Skin

  • Fungal Skin Problems
    ...and more.

I genuinely love my clients — many of my consultations happen through casual, heartfelt texting. Feel free to reach out to me at 719-299-0921 if you need personalized help! HERE for consultations.


I also love sharing the herbal and foraging knowledge I’ve gathered over nearly three decades — you can find more about that on my substack HERE

Today, every single product is still handmade by me.
Every formula is 100% natural, free of preservatives(other than our toners which specifically contain the oh so beneficial natural spring water), liquid plastics, glycerin, and all the other junk your skin simply doesn’t need.

I'm a stickler for purity and effectiveness:
If the product description says it does something, it does it.

I’m Southern — I don’t mess around.


Everything I make multitasks, everything I make works.


Because Nature’s Cure is Perfect...
