FROM THE FOUNDER

After nearly a decade running H, I am more committed than ever before to continue delivering the very best that natural and clean skincare has to offer. This industry is saturated. There is no longer a shortage of brands offering ‘non-toxic’ for almost every need. This is wonderful-and-in the same way not all food is grown from the same soil, there are quite a number of differences between H and the average “clean” skincare line. I like to call what we do ‘farm to face’ skincare. I know the names of our farmers. Freshness is paramount when it comes to efficacy.

From harvesting practices to our environmental footprint, we consider the long-term effect of our choices as a company. We understand the importance of choosing small, woman owned (whenever possible), and local, so that’s how we source. In the 8 years since launching H IS FOR LOVE® I’ve discovered that this approach to business is incredibly rare.

H is about returning to connection with nature and each other. Beyond sourcing the best ingredients in the world and honoring the earth while we do it, my vision is that you have a direct line to the founder: me! You can find me through email, socials, and through the contact page on our website. I’m here to answer your questions and to help guide you.  

Thank you for your trust, and for joining me on this journey back to connection.

THE STORY OF H

I've always had a connection to the letter H. I'm not sure if it's the three lines, the presentation of perfect balance, or that moment I happened upon a book left open on the desk in my San Francisco apartment 22 years ago. I was struck by a paragraph where the author was referencing the loss of his love, 'H.' (you may recognize this as A Grief Observed by C.S. Lewis).

I have a place on my back porch where I listen for my creator. It is there that I share my heart. I sat there 8 years ago with zero money to buy even a weekly coffee beyond my expenses. I had a dream to create a line of skincare that could truly help people, so I asked for the money to just show up. I also believed. Then I forgot about it. Nobody knew about my desire to create what would soon become H IS FOR LOVE.

Two weeks later I was given an unexpected sum of money. I knew exactly where it had come from and what it was for. I sat in the same spot when it came time to name my business.

H is a representation of the number three. If you look to nature, three is everywhere - from the soil to the galaxies - it's almost as if someone has left their fingerprint over all of creation. They say God is love. H IS FOR LOVE is my way of honoring the divine as I understand it.
