Handmade Natural Skincare & Cosmetics in North Idaho
Hippie Chic Cosmetics was founded in 2010 with a mission to provide pure, organic skincare and cosmetics. Our journey began when a family health crisis inspired the creation of healing salves, leading to a full line of natural products handmade in small batches in North Idaho. We prioritize real, raw ingredients free from harsh chemicals, driven by personal experiences with the dangers of synthetic products. Our commitment to natural wellness extends to the entire family, offering everything from makeup to sunscreen. As a small business, we maintain a personal connection to every product and customer, with select items available in local Idaho storefronts.Our founder, Jess Bontrager, brings decades of hands-on experience in natural product formulation and holistic health. We emphasize transparency in ingredients and processes, ensuring every item meets our standards for safety and efficacy. Our expertise lies in crafting solutions for sensitive skin and environmentally conscious consumers. Industry recognition includes a loyal customer base and regional retail partnerships. Trust is built through consistent quality, clear communication, and a dedication to ethical business practices.
