About Us
Our Story
Within the history of Renascential is the story of how I began to consistently take better care of myself. After finishing an 11-year volleyball career that left me physically and mentally damaged, I had lost my sense of purpose and, with depression working overtime, stopped taking care of myself. I started making products as a way to incentivize myself to get back into a daily routine of self-care – creating essentials that not only made me feel good, but made me want to be the best version of myself as well.
The Renascential name comes from the combination of the words renascence (meaning “the revival of something that has been dormant”) and essential. My products and this routine became my form of rebirth. As I researched, learned, and formulated though, I discovered a major lack of transparency within the beauty industry, as well as a lot of fear-mongering happening within the clean beauty industry. “If I can’t pronounce it, it shouldn’t be on my skin, right?!” ...No. To combat this, I wanted to create products that feature ingredients I’m proud to promote and a brand that’s excited to educate.
