A NOTE FROM DR. V
"Years ago, I started making products in my kitchen for my babies. As a toddler my son had eczema and as I searched the aisles for something to soothe his skin, I found that even in the ‘gentlest’ of baby products, every other ingredient was one I couldn’t spell that was concocted in a lab. There was no way I was going to put harmful chemicals on my baby’s skin. And I don’t want you to, either. That's why everything we make is 100% vegan, organic, and handmade in small batches with ingredients that come from Mother Earth."
In addition to working as a physician, Dr. V is a wife and mother to two energetic young boys and a beautiful baby girl. In true Dr. V style, she puts her personal touch in everything she does, and when she found a way to fuse her medical expertise with her passion for making candles and wellness products, L.O.U.D. Wellness was born. Dr. V’s mix of personal touch and carefully selected ingredients not only makes each one of her products unique, but also offers a variety of skincare benefits.
