My Story

I am a Brazilian-born woman, a mother, and a passionate natural soap-maker with a love for cosmetic formulation. As a small business owner, I create products that reflect my values—quality, sustainability, and care for people and the planet—while celebrating my cultural roots.

Growing up in Brazil, I was always aware of the immense natural wealth of my country. Though not from the Amazon region, I’ve felt deeply connected to its vibrant biodiversity, which is an essential part of Brazil’s heritage. The powerful, time-honoured medicinal ingredients of the rainforest have inspired me throughout my journey, offering a way to care for ourselves that honours simplicity, sustainability, and nature.

Before becoming a mother, I sought out products with pure, natural ingredients—ones that nourished the skin without compromising the environment. When my daughter was born, this commitment grew even stronger. I wanted to use only gentle, safe, and eco-friendly products for her delicate skin and mine. This desire to care for my family while protecting the planet became the heart of my work.

In March 2020, we left the fast-paced city of São Paulo to pursue a dream of living closer to nature. During this time, I discovered the art and science of aromatherapy and traditional soap-making, which became my passion. I wanted to create products that aligned with my values—ethical, sustainable, and effective. To achieve this, I dove deeply into the study of chemistry, biology, and formulation to ensure every product I make is not only natural but also works. Every ingredient is chosen with care to deliver real benefits.

Eventually, life brought me back to the UK, where I founded Jungle Glow. Inspired by the biodiversity of the Amazon rainforest and the respect for its traditional communities, Jungle Glow bridges tradition and science to create skincare that is effective, luxurious, and eco-conscious.

Join me in celebrating the beauty of nature and science with Jungle Glow—a skincare line inspired by the richness of the Amazon, rooted in my Brazilian heritage, and dedicated to nurturing both people and planet.
