Paula, the Maker

When Paula was recovering from ovarian cancer that she was inspired to start making her own natural skincare. As she was going through treatment, she says “I was extremely careful about what went in and on my body, avoiding any skincare products that included synthetic chemicals.

This photo appears to have been taken at an awards show, as they are standing in front of a wall filled with sponsors. Paula stands on the left holding a certificate, Theo Paphitis stands to the right. The certificate says she is a winner of the Theo Paphitis Small Business Sunday Award.

Therefore she wanted her skincare to be nurturing and a luxurious act of self-love. Paula started selling her products locally in 2014 and it has gone from strength to strength since. Each product is made in small batches in her little workshop in Bexley, South East London.

There is a group of people, all but one are sitting at a table in a bright, well lit room. They have sheets in front of them with bottles and jars. There is a woman standing up (Paula) who is clearly leading the group through an activity.

The ingredients are carefully sourced and are all suitable for vegetarians and most are vegan friendly too. Paula also loves to share her passion for making soaps and candles, and holds workshops to teach others. Tutoring from large classes to one-to-one, make sure you check her website to find out about courses in your area.
