Dollface Face scrub & mask for sensitive skin: The Scrub That Started It All 🌸

Every business has an origin story — and ours began with a jar of sugar, a handful of essential oils, and a whole lot of heart.
When Life Puts You "In The Weeds"
Picture this: You're 29, living with your parents, dealing with chronic pain, and struggling with 70 pounds of medication-induced weight gain. Your skin is sensitive, acne-prone, and nothing seems to work. You're literally on food stamps, buying baby food jars just to empty them because you can't afford wholesale packaging for the one thing that's bringing you joy – creating natural skincare.
💔 That was my reality in 2012.
But it's also where Dollface was born.
✨ The “Aha!” Moment
During esthetics school, we were assigned to make an exfoliant. "Easy," I thought – just sugar and olive oil.
🚫 But olive oil on my sensitive, problematic skin? Not happening.
That's when everything clicked. I had just learned that 60% of what touches your skin is absorbed into your body in just 28 seconds. After being pumped full of medications that changed my entire body chemistry, the last thing I wanted was more chemicals seeping into my system.
I spent hours researching oils, herbs, flowers, and fruits – applying the same "fresh foods" concept I was using for my healing juice diet, but for my face. I took the classic lemon, honey, and sugar scrub recipe and elevated it with carefully selected natural and essential oils. 🍋🍯🌸
The result? An elevated scrub-mask hybrid made with pure, intentional ingredients.
Why Dollface Isn't Just Another Face Scrub
✨ It's Personal Medicine
Every ingredient in Dollface was chosen because I needed it to work on my own sensitive, acne-prone skin. If it made me break out, it went back to the drawing board. No exceptions.
🥗 It's "Fresh Food" for Your Face
Just like you wouldn't eat processed junk when trying to heal your body, why would you put chemical-laden products on your skin? Dollface is made with the same philosophy I used for my healing journey – pure, natural, effective ingredients.
🌟 It Works When Nothing Else Does
When my esthetics teacher started buying it for her son's acne, I knew it was more than a class project. When customers started coming back with confidence and smiles, I knew we had something life-changing.
🙋 It's Tested by Someone Who Knows Struggle
This wasn’t made in a lab. It was born out of struggle, refined out of necessity, and tested on the most sensitive, acne-prone skin imaginable.
That’s why Dollface isn’t just another product — it’s a natural face scrub for sensitive skin that was created out of real necessity.
The Results Speak for Themselves
The before and after photos don't lie. The testimonials from customers with sensitive skin, acne, and other skin issues tell the real story. But here's what those pictures can't capture:
The confidence that comes from finally finding something that finally works
The relief of using a product that won't irritate your sensitive skin
The joy of supporting a business born from authentic struggle + triumph
The peace of mind knowing every ingredient was chosen with care and intention
Customers with acne, redness, and irritation finally found relief in a natural face scrub for sensitive skin that truly works.
🌸 Why You'll Love Dollface

🌤 The Silver Lining
Looking back, I know I was supposed to have that back injury. It led me to this path, to this purpose, to helping thousands of people with their skin concerns.
When life handed me lemons...I made Dollface.
And here we are – 12+ years later, nearly $1M in sales, and still hand-making every batch with the same care and intention as that very first jar.
