How I started McBlooms…

Many years ago --  about fifteen to be exact -- I began to notice with great interest that there was much “buzz” about gardening – how it was one of North America’s favourite pastimes. In fact, from single pots on balconies to bountiful country gardens, more than 3  / 4s of North American households had “gardens". 

The more interesting fact to me, however, was that the most avid new gardeners were better educated, higher income earning women*; and the busiest people seemed to be the ones most involved in gardening.* I had a hunch that these busy women who took care of their gardens also took care of themselves.

With this in mind, I set about developing a line of “after garden” body care products to address the needs of the avid gardener – to cleanse and soothe hands made rough and dry from gardening – “to care for the gardener as effectively as she cares for herself.” 

After many months of research and consumer testing, we launched our first products – a gentle but effective cleanser, an incredibly emollient, wonderfully protective hand cream, and a soothing, herbal body wash – all with a special promise to be “pure pleasure in your busy day.”

And so McBlooms Skin Therapy, the gardener’s little secret, was born. From those early days, we found that as one satisfied gardener shared McBlooms with another and then they told another, and so on, our brand grew. Soon, our products were no longer used just after gardening, but all day every day -- winter, spring, summer and fall.

In all this time, our customers have been our best – and almost only – form of advertising. And McBlooms has blossomed into the cult favourite natural skin care line of women in the know – of women who look after their skin.

I sincerely hope you will enjoy exploring our website -- maybe shop on-line or, with our store locator, find one of the fine McBlooms retailers near you.  Take the opportunity to try McBlooms one day soon!           

Thank you for letting me share my story with you.

Best wishes,

At McBlooms we believe skin care should be simple, effective and luxurious.

We believe in making exceptional skin care products that really work.

We believe that using natural garden-fresh and organic ingredients is simply the best formula for healthy, glowing skin. 

And we believe that every woman deserves a little luxury in her busy day. Naturally.

How We Do It

Our products are made by women, for women (although we think guys love our stuff too!). 

Every product that we develop is made with real, fresh, ingredients that we feel good about using.  All of our products are made right here in Canada. That way, we get to see and test every single wonderful ingredient that goes into  McBlooms Skin Therapy so we know the quality is always the best.

We try each and every product ourselves until we believe they are absolutely perfect. And then our friends try them. And then their friends try them too. It is only when we know that we have something that works wonders, smells divine and feels luxurious to use that we are ready to share it with you.

And then we listen to what you have to say. And when we get emails, letters and phone calls telling us that you can’t live without our products, we know we’ve done it right!

We hope you will enjoy your McBlooms Skin Therapy experience. And questions, comments, ideas suggestions?? -- we would love to hear from you.contact us
