At fourteen years of age, she experienced her first severe psoriasis episode. She worked in the fashion business and the arts for years and saw the exploitation of beauty. It became increasingly difficult to ignore. During the following thirty years, Anya researched and experimented tirelessly to find relief for her condition seeking to understand the deeper aspects of beauty and mankind. Along with her quest for healing, she became a licensed aromatherapist, energetic healer, mystic and alchemist. Her personal experience has laid the foundation for the development of her one-of-a-kind beauty products and remote healing abilities. She is in awe of the marvellous healing properties of the botanics, flora and continues to dedicate herself to discovering more of the unending wonders of nature.
