About sticks + stones

How it started: I have been back and forth on my vision for decades. Always a dream, but never thought I could make it a reality. Anndddd then the pandemic shut the world down.

I started with a few courses to learn and dive into making my dream a hobby and then bridge to a career. I had a 5 year plan. I started out branding as No Bull. As if to say, no bullshit.

Once I learned the darkside of a candle, and the complications of skincare, I switched my gears to focus mostly on bath products. What hard working woman doesn’t love a nice calming bath at the end of a hard day?! I started to narrow down a list of suppliers that fit my vision: all natural, no harmful ingredients with limited synthetic and no man made additives. Then it got hard.

I set out to create healthy, real products that still give us the lux we want without all the bad.Read their story
