Who we are
Welcome to Ocean Tide Apothecary! My name is Briana and I am a proud mama of two boys, Andre and Liam (as shown in our logo as two Pisces fish) and I am married to my best friend and motivation in all things! We just moved to the sunshine state from Massachusetts to align our lives with the sun and sea! As a family, we love to go to the beach, go for runs with our double stroller and puppy-dog, Birch and do workouts in our yard! We love swimming in the ocean and catching as many sunsets as we can! We pride ourselves on our wholesome, nose to tail nutrition but we definitely won’t shy away from a large cheese pizza!
Throughout the past few years we have had a sincere health and wellness awakening. While we always knew the evils in processed and industrialized foods, we never could have imagined the demons hiding in all of our everyday essentials. So, we began to unpack all of the harmful ingredients found in, well, basically everything! We were floored! For example, deodorant has a known toxic chemical ingredient, “propylene glycol”, also known as antifreeze! Then there are the meriad of synthetic fragrances, colored dyes, and parabens that wreak havoc on our endocrine system and dysregulate our hormonal matrix, the very thing that allows us to function as humans!
So, that’s why we created Ocean Tide Apothecary! It is in our mission to not only provide wholesome, animal-based skin care products without all of those harmful ingredients but we also want to raise awareness of their existence!
All of our products are handmade in small batches, with the highest quality ingredients we can find. Your skin is your biggest organ and deserves only the purest and most bioavailable and nutrient compatible substances! I hope you enjoy what we have created, with love!
