Introduction to us and our Blog.

Hi and welcome to our new blog! I have never blogged a day in my life and I'm not quite sure where to begin. First and foremost, thank you for taking the time to read this! I want to start by letting you know a little bit about our business and what we do. Symbolic Imports has been a creation in the works for many years. In 2004, after getting my degree in nursing, a realization came to me about skin care products. I realized that being healthy not only meant just physically and mentally, but keeping your skin healthy as well. I began to think, your skin is the largest organ, so why not place emphasis on it too! 

After researching how awful some of the store bought brands of bath products we were purchasing contained such harmful detergents and ingredients, we decided to start creating our own bath and skin care products. Here we are, 7 years later, after much experimentation and many sleepless nights, we are offering our products to the world and it feels great!!! The ONLY thing that we wish online shopping included was a "scratch & sniff" computer screen! :) We are total bath and body addicts! If you get the chance to try our products, you will see why. 

In closing, I wanted to add a picture of one of my favorite scents right now. In South Carolina, we like to make and drink fresh squeezed lemonade. It is a real summertime treat when the weather gets so humid and hot outdoors! I can have the best of both worlds now. Lemonade in my drink and lemonade in my shower!
