My Story- By Trisha Howard
It has taken me 24 years to learn what I can impart to you in one day.Let me begin by saying "I have a passion for creating products that work, be it Wrinkles, Acne, Roseacea,…" whatever the skin condition . People live everyday with skin conditions that are unnecessarily brought on by the use of bad cosmetics When treated properly ANYONE CAN HAVE BEAUTIFUL SKIN.
LEATHER SKIN AT 30
From my teens to my thirties, I always had skin that was an embarrassment to me. My skin problems kept me from social events, lowered my self-esteem, and helped create a negative environment from which it took years and years to recover . Get the picture……..I had simple breakouts, along with cystic acne that left my face badly scarred. My pores were all enlarged, and, blackheads, and, whiteheads were the norm. Because the sun helped the breakouts (I thought), I baked in the sun. Consequently by the time I was 32 my skin looked like a piece of leather.
MAJOR COSMETIC LINES WERE INEFFECTIVE
In an effort to correct the acne, I used almost every well known and not so well known cosmetic line on the market. NONE OF THEM WORKED. In fact they made my skin worse. I made frequent trips to the dermatologist, did the sunlamp treatments, dry ice. Tetrocyclines, and you name it (once I even tried sand paper) Oh yes! Finally, I gave up and lost hope.
ANSWERED PRAYER
It was a prayer I prayed in 1976 that changed my life. I asked God to use my life and to show me what career I was to have. Within one month I was enrolled in facial school. I had no money to pay the school and no money to purchase my facial kit. The school let me pay upon graduation and I used a borrowed kit. God was getting ready to take my greatest weakness and turn it into my best asset!
RESEARCH/RESEARCH

Upon graduation in 1977 I began research by spending years working in well established facial salons and with leading dermatologists. I was always researching and searching for the products that would help me. I never stayed long at any one place because I could never sell anything I don’t truly believe in. It has to work.

In 1980 I began making headway as I realized the beginning to beautiful skin is found in taking off the old skin first. This research lead me to develop a product called “New Beginnings”. When used every morning it takes off all the old dead skin and makes way for the new. It drastically changed my skin and the skin of everyone that uses “New Beginnings”. The scarring was getting softer, my wrinkles were disappearing, my skin was smoother and my pores became so refined. People began to comment. (People told me later they were afraid to hurt my feelings by telling me I looked so much better). I was on to something but it was only the beginning…I had to go all the way. Finally, I had the good fortune to meet one of the leading dermatologists in the world.He began teaching me about good and bad ingredients and its effects on the skin. He taught me it takes six to eighteen months of using something to see its real effect on the skin. He designed a plan for me and I followed it, however, I incorporated some of my own wisdom I had learned. The combination was exactly what I needed to correct my own skin. My skin was now clear, the leather like appearance was better. Others used the system and it worked every time.

A SKIN CARE COMPANY
I would have never believed in my wildest dreams I would have a skin care company , however, the dermatologist began encouraging me there was such a need and that with wonderful chemists and my passion for research we could do it. I knew the products had to be Fragrance Free, Non-pore plugging and good for people with illness or allergies. Non-offensive, non-irritating.
WRINKLES AND AGING SKIN
In the spring of 1990, at age forty three, I was beginning to show some signs of aging. My desire to again look better lead me to be part of an experiment for another remarkable product we now call "Skin Perfecting Serum” We experimented with lots and lots of formulas when at last we perfected the formula. This product along with the others we had formulated helped catapult my skin into a new dimension and took ten years off my appearance. All along the way friends and family were very supportive as I began sharing the products with them.
