Hi! I’m Silvia Patrocinio Roseiro, the owner and visionary behind Enchanted Lotus.
Hamilton , Ontario , Canada is home for me and Enchanted Lotus. I am immigrated to Hamilton from Europe as a young adult, fell in love here, raised my family here, and am now a proud grandmother here.
I started Enchanted Lotus when I went through menopause at an early age, and the lack of estrogen caused a lot issues for me with dry skin .
I tried so many skin care products, but nothing worked, so I took control over my skin care by researching skin types, skin health and skin conditions. In the process, I realised most of the products that I purchased had ingredients that weren’t healthy for my skin. With this new understanding, I started reading all the information on the labels , and realised nothing was done like the good old days anymore. There are way too many synthetic chemicals in skin care products that cause cancer .
Also a lot of creams come in a plastic containers, which exposed to heat, cause cancer.
My research lead me to begin to experiment with creating skin care products of my own, skin care products made with all natural ingredients, that calmed my dry shin, giving it the love it needed. I worked very hard on these recipes, and modified them until I found what I needed for myself and was happy with the results, finally creating a skin care product that was best for me .
In sampling my moisturiser, my sister told me I needed to commercialise the product and turn Enchanted Lotus into a business so that others could benefit from my skin care products and show their dry skin some love. I explained I had made the moisturiser for me and was not thinking of selling it. It was expensive to make, because I used raw products, not machine press. She told me that more people suffer with dry skin and eczema, including herself, and my moisturiser could make all the difference if it was available to them.
The idea of helping others was that nudge I needed to launch Enchanted Lotus Beauty Products. It has been a blessing to learn the moisturiser has helped other loved ones with their eczema. And Enchanted Lotus Beauty Products have expanded to deliciously lip smacking lip balm, beard oil at the request of the men in my life, and even lick save paw palm for four-legged, furry loves, inspired by the handsome fellow pictured with me here.
