Woman-owned | Handmade | Small Batch | Not on Amazon

Hi, My name is Rhonda Alexander and I'm the founder of Dermaquench. 

I officially created Dermaquench just a few, short years ago, but I've been on this journey to creating my own brand for more than 15 years. 

I have always been a girly girl! Victoria's Secret, The Body Shop and the like are the types of places you could find me and any disposable income I had as a young adult. 

As the years went by, I became attracted to shops that sold oils and encouraged the mixing of them to create and customize a fragrance that spoke to me and me alone. 

On the weekends, my mom and I would take shopping excursions to the mall and even though we were best buddies, she would still fight her frustration at how much time I could spend in one of those bath and body shops just smelling everything. I loved them all!!!

Over the years, my infatuation with oils, body butter and personal care products only grew. I even joined an incredible personal care company as a consultant and began to learn about the business side of personal care. That's when a germ of an idea to create my own line began to grow inside of me.

The idea grew when I became my mom's caregiver as she fought an aggressive form of breast cancer. 

During her first round of radiation, her skin was so dry, nothing helped. The redness, the dryness, the misery in her face was agonizing to me. We were more than mother and daughter. She was my best friend and I would have done anything to help ease her struggle. 

To try to distract myself from the misery of feeling useless to my mommy, I began mixing oils again as I had stepped back to be front and center to help my mom. I added in research this time and I began to learn how the oils could actually ease some of mom's discomfort. 

Seeing the relief she experienced when using some of the oils I put together was not just a bright spot on that agonizing journey, it renewed my passion and pushed me forward to continuing the journey to Dermaquench. 

Not only is Dermaquench the manifestation of what feels like a life long time dream, it is a labor of love and one of the most important gifts my mom left me with before she gained her wings. 

As I continue to move forward on this journey, I can only hope that you receive some of the same comfort, joy and relief from the Dermaquench line.

Thank you for joining me on this journey and I can't wait for you to try everything I have to offer.
