  About me:
My name is Michele and I have a BA in business from Miami University in Ohio. I now live in Florida. I worked in Human Resources for years as a single mom raising my two sons and a daughter. I met my husband Mike and we married in December 2007. He encouraged me to follow this dream and to have someplace to let my inner “creature” out.

The name REAL RASPBERRIES came out of the studies showing the success of crushed raspberries applied to sunburn. The antioxidants in raspberries have been proven to help deter melanoma when spread on the skin after sun exposure. This company was started from a need to find pure products without toxins and chemicals. Soaking night after night in “salts” that were synthetic was something I began to worry about as the organic information became more readily available. I tried to find products that were chemical-free, but bath salts and scrubs were not easy to find. Even the few I did find didn’t smell as wonderful as I had hoped. Was it impossible to have really beautiful soaks and scrubs that weren’t going to poison me slowly?!

Not only was it possible—it’s become a delight! I love finding the right essential oils and experimenting with the possibilities of ground seeds to use as exfoliates. I have a passion for pink as you can see and love flowers.  I look forward to sharing these products with you. No chemicals, no toxins,--all organic and natural.
