Today we’d like to introduce you to Sarah Shah.
Hi Sarah, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
In 2018, I began replacing harsh chemical products in our home with natural alternatives, which included cleaners, soaps, body products, and more. The more I researched the effects of harsh chemicals on our bodies; there was no option but to continue switching to non-toxic versions of as much as I could. And I started sharing what I made with friends and family. Soon, word of mouth spread about my products, so I turned my hobby into a business called Life Essentials.
Slowly, I began expanding to skincare products to help my teenage daughter with acne and to test natural ingredient anti-aging products. My bestselling skincare set was launched in March 2021 and has many skin-healing customer success stories. Their reviews include helping with dry skin, slowing signs of aging, healing blemishes, and making them feel more confident in their appearance.
I am enthusiastic to launch several new skincare products in 2023!
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not, what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Running a business will always have opportunities. You learn the most when things don’t go as planned. I have gone through a few failed product formulas where it’s not right the first time — but that’s the beauty of having a product testing period so formulas can be tweaked before they are launched.
I tend to lean on being open to learning about all aspects of business, trying new things for my business, and analyzing the results.
Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
Life Essentials Skincare is a handcrafted non-toxic skincare line with a variety of products for the face and body. I lean into ingredients that are clean, less harsh chemicals, and use properties from nature to help heal skin aliments. My products are known to help achieve soothed, glowing, and healed skin. I make moisturizer, serum, toner mists, scrubs, and balms that are in beautiful glass containers. I also offer a few eco-friendly products and skincare tools.
Can you talk to us a bit about happiness and what makes you happy?
I love learning, challenging myself to think differently, and researching everything. I also enjoy being outside enjoying a sunset or a patio, exploring different places, game nights with a bit of competition, laughing, brainstorming dreams, and spicy margaritas.
