Growing up in the suburbs, I was first introduced to the valuable benefits of quality skin care when my husband and I moved our family to Gunnison, Colorado in 2016. A small mountain town that was packed with people who lived healthy lifestyles. Here we learned that what goes on our skin is just as important as the food we put into our bodies. This is where I was first introduced to Leanne Grace Skin Care and met Cassie (the founder). She taught me how to properly take care of my skin and the importance of using quality products. Since then, skin care and health has always intrigued me, and I love researching how different ingredients can be so valuable to the health and healing of our skin.
As a teen, I had cystic acne and tried everything. I tried hard to get rid of the oil on my face by washing my face several times a day, always carrying oil absorbing sheets in my purse, and even wiping my face with rubbing alcohol. (I know a few of you know exactly what I am talking about.) Boy was I wrong, oils and moisturizers are beneficial and help restore our skin.
It has been exciting learning in greater detail about all the amazing ingredients that are in each one of our products. Cassie has worked hard to create an incredible skin care line, and I am thrilled to continue creating these products that we all love. As a family we have moved around, living in extremely different climates. We lived in the Colorado mountains where it is incredibly dry, coastal North Carolina where you constantly feel wet because of the high humidity, and Michigan has a bit of both depending on the season you are in. All the products have been amazing in the different climates and seasons.
We are firm believers that our bodies know what’s best for us, that is how they were created. In our opinion, our skin care and nutrition should never go against what the body already naturally knows; it should only assist the body. The ingredients we use are going to naturally assist the skin to regrow, repair, and re-balance itself as well as impart vital and essential nutrients that the skin so desperately needs.

"We all need grace, don't forget to give yourself some." ~ Cassie
Skin care has always been a huge passion of mine. After attending massage therapy school and learning so much about skin, oils, and skin ailments, I was finding myself diving more and more into research about natural skin care. I fell in love with so many amazing natural ingredients and I wanted to use them but could not find many products with these awesome ingredients. If they did have some of the ingredients, they also had a lot of bad ingredients.
This is what started my kitchen experiments. It was very frustrating at first, trying to find the perfect blend of oils and emulsifying them. Finally, a recipe came to me, and nothing has stopped me since. My friends, my family, and I were stunned at the difference this lotion made for us.
In 2012, my son was born, and I decided to leave my stable job to care for him. This is what started the business side of it. I am so excited to share these amazing ingredients with the world. My hope for everyone is that they begin to teach themselves about skin care and how costly bad ingredients can be to our skin. I want people to truly appreciate the natural goodness the world has to offer our bodies. Mostly I want people to try our products and see results they love!
Why Leanne Grace?
Those of you who have been with us from the beginning know that our original name was, The Blissful Body, but was switched to Leanne Grace Skin Care. Leanne Grace reflects Cassie’s two beautiful daughters, Bliss Leanne and Aniah Grace. With her future goals in mind, changing the name seemed appropriate, and including the two most beautiful girls in her life was important. This has always been a family business where we strongly believe in the health and beauty of each individual from the inside out.
Why the Standard?
It is important to us that our products are something we adore and WANT to use daily. We created this standard for our company because it is so important to us that as this company grows, the quality is never forgotten. We specialize in products that really work and help our bodies naturally.
Giving Back
Another passion of ours is helping women and children in need.
Something to ponder, “If there is a need, stop waiting for someone else to help, instead help in whatever way you can.”
That is why we have decided to offer a portion of all profits to ministries that dedicate themselves to needy women and children.
