Washing your hands is critical to keeping us all healthy.

We need to wash our hands often. It's critical to help keep each of us healthy. As contagious as COVID-19 is, we have a fighting chance if we practice social distancing, effectively clean our surfaces, wash our hands and don’t touch our faces.

The Fix

Wash your hands!

As we face the Coronavirus outbreak - this is such a critical refrain that I find myself repeating to my family (and myself) constantly. But how we wash our hands is also important.

We believe in being over-protective…

My kids criticize me for being an over-protective mom. I want them to build their confidence, to experience life’s undulations, to learn to fail, to make mistakes, and to own their triumphs. Secretly I want to wrap them in a protective and impermeable barrier that protects them from disappointment, heartache, embarrassment, and sadness. I realize this would stifle their development – and I do my best to strike a balance as best as I can. So, I fulfill my urge to be over-protective in formulating products for your skin!
