OUR STORY
Everything started when I was 13 years old, in the spring patches of good 'ole Springfield, Illinois. It was there that I started to make my own facial care & masks. You see, since
I was a little girl, I have had bad reactions to the smells of anything synthetic: lotions, perfumes, paints, etc. They give me migraines & nausea. By the time I was a teenager,
I knew I had to do something.
WHAT DOES "ROCÍO SAGRADO" MEAN?
It's pronounced "roh-see-oh sah-grah-doh" and means “Sacred Dew” in Spanish. A dear friend and I chose the name because I also live in Argentina (for more than 20 years now). And I started this little company with this Spanish (Castillan) name in 2010.
AND WHAT DO I DO (now we - to include my husband Juan who is head of production)?
Since 2011, we have been creating literally, truly-ruly handmade, 100% pure & natural Skin Care & Holistic Care using hand-picked plants & flowers fresh from our garden & from our friends' gardens and farms.
All our proucts are plant-loving, nourishing, premium quality, splendidly multi-useful & concentrated. No preservatives, colorants, synthetics, nothing.
Oleos, Butter Blends, Balms, Masks, Fragrances, Deodorants, Soaps & Repellents are just a few of the things we make in our boutique. Rosemary, Calendula, Dandelion, Lavender, Linden, Rose, Lemon Balm, Bergamot, Chaparral & Thyme are just some of the wondrous plants that we collect from our garden.
From our garden to your skin. That's Handmade-Homemade Goodness. So, feed your skin well. Make it smile. Power to the Flower.
