Our Story

Healing skin, holding nothing back.

Simply Bare started in a kitchen in 2021 — with one woman, one skin condition, and a refusal to keep choosing between smelling good and feeling good.

Where it started

I'd lived with skin conditions since I was a kid.

For years, that meant a constant trade-off. The products that actually helped my skin never smelled or felt like anything I wanted to put on. The ones that felt luxurious weren't doing anything for my skin at all. I got used to picking one or the other — because that's just how it was.

Then COVID happened. Like a lot of people, I suddenly had time to actually sit with that frustration instead of just living with it. And one day it hit me: why am I still sacrificing? Why can't there be something that makes me feel confident and actually takes care of my skin?

So I decided to stop waiting for it to exist. I'd make it myself.

The kitchen era · 2021

No lab. No team. Just a stove and a lot of trial and error.

Simply Bare started in my actual kitchen. My first body butters came out rock solid — more like soap bars than anything you'd want on your skin. I remelted batches, started over, and reformulated more times than I can count.

But I kept going, because I wasn't just trying to make a product to sell. I was trying to make the product I needed — the one that didn't exist yet. Eventually, I got somewhere I was proud of: something that felt as good as it smelled, and actually worked the way I needed it to.

Rock solid. Literally.
More soap bar than body butter. Back to the stove it went.

Finally, the one.
Soft, whipped, and worth putting my name on.

"I wasn't making a product to sell. I was making the product I needed."

What we believe

Skin first. Scent second. Always.

Made for real skin

Every formula starts from organic butters and oils — what's good for your skin comes before what smells good on a shelf.

Tested on me first

Before anything reaches you, it's already lived on my own skin. I don't put my name on something I wouldn't use.

Handmade, small batch

No mass production line. Every jar is made the same way the very first one was — with care, in small batches.

Where we are now

From one kitchen batch to eight signature scents.

Since 2021, Simply Bare has grown into a full line — and a lot of miles. We've shown up at pop-ups and events across the country, met so many of you in person, and built this brand one conversation, one jar, one "wait, this actually worked" at a time.

No more simple.
Just Simply Bare.

This is for the girl who's done sacrificing — who wants to heal her skin without giving up how she feels in it. You don't need a complicated routine or a dozen products that almost work. You need one that's made for exactly this.
