One thing I’ve always known is that change is the only constant in life. It’s a mantra I’ve repeated to myself time and time again as I’ve navigated various changes and challenges. So, when it happened again, I really shouldn’t have been so surprised.

The issue? I was getting older—my skin was becoming drier, and those wrinkles were starting to show up faster than I could keep up with. I must’ve tried at least 15 different skincare products, each with different ingredients and a range of prices. I’d give them a go, but I never felt fully satisfied. Nothing seemed to be quite the right fit for me.

On top of that, I’ve always struggled with sleep. Ambien was the only thing that worked for me, but, as we all know, there are risks involved with that. What I didn’t realize, though, was that my doctor would stop prescribing it once I hit my 70s.

So here I was, dealing with two major issues—my skin and my sleep—and I was on a mission to find the right solution for both problems.

I'm an old hippie so I’d heard about CBD, but I’d never tried it. To my surprise, CBD helped me sleep better, and I found some CBD creams I liked—though I wasn’t quite in love with them yet. My search continued.

That’s when I stumbled upon functional mushrooms and learned about the power of nanotechnology to enhance their effectiveness. That was the game-changer. Suddenly, I had a combination of CBD and mushroom products that really worked for me.

The results? I was sleeping better and feeling more energized. My skin was no longer dry—it felt softer, looked more vibrant, and yes, even a little younger. An old burn mark from a curling iron on my arm faded significantly. And while my wrinkles are still there (I am in my 70s, after all), they don’t seem as deep and there is definite
improvement in my skin texture.

I had finally found the right products for my self-care routine—products that addressed my skin concerns and helped me feel better inside and out. I only wish I had discovered them sooner!

That’s how Femme Botanicals came to be. So if you choose to become one of my customers, know you are buying from “a little old lady” who is in LOVE with these products! And I know you’re going to love them too.
