SIMPLY BREATHE by LJ began from my own search for gentler, more natural skincare.

After struggling with eczema, rosacea, dry skin, and fragrance-induced migraines, I became increasingly mindful of the ingredients found in everyday body care products. I wanted something simpler, more nourishing, and thoughtfully made — so I began creating my own handcrafted soaps, salves, oils, and body care products using natural ingredients, infused oils, and essential oils.

Inspired by a love of gardening, I grow lavender, mint, and other herbs that are infused into many of the oils used throughout my products. I’m continually learning, testing, and refining recipes with the goal of creating simple, comforting skincare for everyday use.

Each product is handcrafted in small batches with a focus on simplicity, nourishment, and intentional care. No unnecessary extras — just thoughtfully made skincare inspired by nature and everyday rituals.

I believe skincare should feel calming, uncomplicated, and honest — small moments that help us slow down, care for ourselves, and SIMPLY BREATHE.

SIMPLY BREATHE by LJ is located in Nanaimo, British Columbia on beautiful Vancouver Island.
