The Founder's Story
Purpose Balms was inspired by my late grandmother and her experience with breast cancer. In 2020, I witnessed the debilitating effects of cancer on her. It was heartbreaking to witness the pain she endured physically and mentally. Dry skin was my grandmother’s chief complaint during chemotherapy and radiation treatment. Due to harsh chemicals found in most lotions and moisturizers, selections were very slim for her.
Because of this, Purpose Balms skincare products are free from toxic ingredients unlike many lotions that often contains Oxybenzone, Parabens, Retinyl Palmitate and Synthetic Fragrances, often linked to cancer.
I often think about my grandmother and the impact she had in my life and others. She was known for encouraging and helping others in their greatest time of need. My grandmother’s legacy lives on through me and Purpose Balms.
Our vision is to elevate our platform to educate and give back to the community. A portion of our proceeds are donated to local organizations that make a direct impact and are focused on the fight against Breast Cancer in underserved communities. Helping others is a good thing and the right thing to do.
