We had the good fortune of connecting with Renee Morrison and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Renee, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
My son. He acquired eczema from me and his dad. His skin flared up at the least little thing. The medications were overload and not effective as proposed. Hence, my thought process came about as to go natural, which birthed HeartMade Skincare.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I always remained persistent. The only easy days I had were when I would take a break. When challenges arise, I put my best foot forward and keep my head held high and hunker down. Being a business owner, you have to have a plan to implement and top notch organization skills. HeartMade Skincare is specifically Oatmeal/Honey based. Our goal is to use safe and healthy ingredients to produce skin safe products. Our products target is to assist with eczema, dry skin, flaky skin, psoriasis and sensitive skin healing and relief.
