About Skin Scholars

Skin Scholars is not just a Skin Care Company, we embody our indigenous traditions and principles that shaped who we are. We've taken the knowledge that has been passed down to us from over 7 generations of herbalist and infused it into earth friendly sustainable products that people can feel good about using. We arise from from a very proud and strong line of Indigenous Medicine Women, Midwives, and Healers. Our tribal roots go back to numerous Southeastern Virginia, and Northeastern North Carolina tribes including The Weapemoc (Yeopim) Nation, Cheroenhaka Nottoway, Nansemond, and Meherrin Peoples. Skin Scholars is a business that is created from the beliefs, customs, and heritage that we proudly continue to practice in honor of our Ancestors. Our Foremothers believed in the most natural of processes. Everything was made with Love, Laughter and the Patience of the Cosmos. Making medicines and Skin Care was a time for the women to come together and share stories and pass on oral traditions that we inherited and continue to carry to this day. For the Indigenous people of the Americas working with our hands is the way we infuse a little of ourselves into our work. This is a high honor. Healing is our birthright, Crap-Free Skin Love is our Promise to you!Read their story
