About Us
Less
Is More
At Love Peace Organic, we’re passionate about holistic beauty + wellness. We believe that what we put on our skin matters. Real beauty comes from within, and in order to achieve optimal health, it’s imperative that we’re conscious of and mindful about the toxins we come into contact with on a daily basis. We are dedicated to offering the highest quality clean beauty + wellness products, through our carefully curated collections.
Holistic Beauty
an all-encompassing approach to a healthy body, mind, and soul, which ultimately results in healthier, radiant skin
On average, women use 12 personal care products a day, exposing themselves to 168 chemical ingredients.
Our Standards
We pass on any brand that doesn’t meet the highest standards for clean beauty ingredients. The Love Peace Organic family of brands align with our mission. They’re hand-formulated, using organic or wildcrafted ingredients. They’re cruelty free, consciously created with love. Their packaging is eco-friendly + sustainable. And, of course, their products are high performing + effective.
What is
wildcrafted beauty?
Wildcrafted plants are collected from the plant’s natural habitat in lieu of a farm. They produce higher levels of antioxidants and nutrients than traditionally cultivated plants, and this is what makes them so effective!

A Letter From Our Founder
Like many of you, I grew up in the late 90s, wearing body splashes from Victoria’s Secret, and chemically straightening my hair. As a college student, though, I’d often visit a holistic vitamin store so I could glean knowledge from the owner, who wrote a book on curing illness with plant remedies. I dove head-first into herbal remedies, holistic health, Eastern Medicine techniques, and other wellness practices.
Beauty and fashion have long inspired me, and landing a job in product development for a major corporate retailer felt amazing. But after welcoming my first daughter in 2012, I experienced a laundry list of health issues. I visited too many doctors, and was given plenty of prescriptions, but no answers! This served as a re-ignition of my passion for holistic solutions. I knew I could be healed naturally, and I dove into researching the ingredients (surprise: toxins!) in my favorite beauty products and foods. This love for finding perfect blends of natural ingredients served me as I embarked on a healing journey that included clean eating and ditching my toxic beauty products.
I discovered that LESS IS MORE.
There shouldn’t be long lists of questionable ingredients on our body cleansers or hair care. And guess what?! We have options! But who has time to research all of these things? So let me do it for you. I have found that the most effective products have fewer ingredients - they let the plants work their magic, helping you to achieve that radiant glow. Less ‘noise’ means more peace, more healing, better health, and a happier, more vibrant you!
It is my hope that for you, Love Peace Organic will become synonymous with unique, natural, tried-and-true, plant-based care. If you’re a Midwesterner like I am, I know from experience that clean beauty products aren’t the easiest to find. That’s why I’m constantly sourcing new brands and partnerships with passionate, women-owned beauty and wellness brands. Their philosophies align with our mission to provide the cleanest, beautifully formulated, fun holistic beauty + wellness products.
Every day I am grateful to continue on the healing journey that is Love Peace Organic. Thank you for being here and walking alongside me. I am excited and grateful to be a piece of the bridge connecting you back to nature!
