OUR STORY

ABOUT THE FOUNDER

La Recette Skincare was born from a lifelong love affair with nature, beauty, and the healing power of energetics. I’m Ivy, the founder and formulator behind La Recette — and this is my story.

My journey into high-vibrational skincare began long before I ever mixed my first botanical blend. I was raised in a rural environment surrounded by the natural rhythms of the earth — trees, soil, wildflowers, and quiet skies. Though we didn’t farm ourselves, the land imprinted on me a reverence for nature’s wisdom and cycles.

Since 1992, I’ve worked as a hairdresser, immersed in the intimate art of care and transformation. Later, my path led me to serve as a birth doula — another profoundly sacred and tactile way of connecting with life. Today, I share breath, movement, and energy through my work as a yoga teacher and Breathwork facilitator.

What ties all these roles together is my deep belief in energetic resonance — the idea that everything we touch, breathe, and apply to our skin holds a frequency. I’ve always been drawn to pure, natural ingredients because I believe they carry the highest vibration. Plants, flowers, oils — these aren’t just skincare components; they’re living messengers of the Earth’s intelligence.

La Recette (which means “the recipe” in French) is my love letter to the Earth and to the innate beauty we each hold within. It’s my way of honoring creativity, nature, and the truth that we are all vibrational beings. Each product is handcrafted with intention — not just to nourish the skin, but to awaken our consciousness to the sacredness of self-care and the radiance that emerges when we align with nature.

With love and gratitude,

Ivy

Founder of La Recette Skincare

THE PRODUCTS

La Recette Skincare is a high-vibrational, deeply nourishing skincare line inspired by the natural rhythms of the earth and the intimate rituals of care. Every product is intentionally designed to feel like a personal offering — a moment of connection between you and your own radiance.

As someone who has spent a lifetime in the healing arts — from hairdressing to birth work, yoga, and breathwork — I’ve always been devoted to the sacred act of caring for the body and soul. Creating La Recette has been an extension of that devotion — a way to share the beauty, simplicity, and potency of nature in its most vital form.

Each formulation is handcrafted in fresh micro-batches using only beneficial, organic, and energetically vibrant ingredients — chosen not just for their effectiveness, but for the frequency they carry. I use cold-processing methods wherever possible to preserve the phytonutrients and bioactive compounds that nature intended — honoring the plant’s full intelligence and life force.

Our products are simple by design — not stripped down, but refined. Elegant in formulation, rooted in love, and made to support both outer glow and inner presence. I believe skincare is more than a routine; it’s a ritual. A sacred space where you return to yourself, where you cultivate awareness, and where you remember your inherent beauty.

I hope these products become trusted allies in your self-care — and that they nourish not just your skin, but your spirit.

ROOTED IN EARTH. ALIGNED WITH NATURE.

At La Recette Skincare, we believe that one of our greatest resources is our attention. Where we place it shapes our experience — and creating space to care for our own mind, body, and spirit is essential.

Our attention is rooted in the rhythms and wisdom of the Earth. We are not just in nature — we are nature. When we align with this truth, we experience the most meaningful and magical transformation.

La Recette was founded on this belief. We craft our products using only ingredients created by nature herself — time-honored botanicals and earth-derived elements known for their nourishing, beauty-revealing benefits. While we primarily use plant-based ingredients, we thoughtfully include a few ethically sourced gifts like beeswax, organic honey, or goat milk, always selected for their integrity and efficacy.

We are committed to ingredients that are clean, cruelty-free, sustainably harvested, and ethically sourced — never at the expense of the Earth or the people who steward her.

As lovers of the Earth and humanity, we believe it is our responsibility to give back. We donate part of all sales to organizations that support environmental health, sustainability, and those working to protect and restore the planet for future generations.
