What Sets Us Apart
Led By Professionals
From our customer support team of licensed estheticians and massage therapists, to our team of cosmetic chemists that create custom formulations in our own lab, every facet of Herbal Skin Solutions is led by experienced experts.
Sustainably-Sourced Ingredients
For all the ingredients we can’t grow and supply ourselves, we’ve partnered with other certified organic farmers to source ingredients with the highest nutrient density. Being this close to the source also ensures that we don’t hit supply chain issues and only have products go on backorder if an ingredient is out-of-season.
Walking the Eco-Conscious Talk
Whether it’s meticulously curating as many recyclable product packaging components from upcycled materials as possible or offsetting our brand’s entire carbon emissions every year, we take a variety of steps to ensure that we’re not just being friendly to the planet, but actively protecting it.
Meet Our Founder and CE-Glow:
Kaelin Jutras
Kaelin Jutras is a Licensed Esthetician and the Founder and CEO of Herbal Skin Solutions, a consciously-crafted skincare company that, from concept to creation, places energetic alignment with science, and environmental protection at the forefront.
From potent botanical formulations that are both safe for all skin types and deliver clinical results, to packaging that honors the Earth and its resources — Kaelin’s intention for Herbal Skin Solutions is to bring forth rituals that run more than skin-deep and feed the wellspring of the mind, body, and soul alongside an array of skin concerns.
In addition to her work leading Herbal Skin Solutions, Kaelin is also an educator working to elevate the professional esthetic collective by providing hands-on training and certifications via her education company, The Esthetics Academy, as well as a contributing author speaking at industry events and conferences.
Over the years, Kaelin and her Herbal Skin Solutions glow-getter community have worked together to support natural disaster relief efforts, clean water initiatives, tree planting, domestic violence and human trafficking victims, and support the protection of indigenous rights and the Amazon rainforest through partnerships and fundraising efforts.

Our Commitment to Sustainability
In addition to our commitment to providing the highest level of client and customer support, we’re also fiercely protective of our planet.
We’re of the mindset that if we get to benefit from all the beautiful bounty of Mother Earth while we’re here, it’s our responsibility to replenish the resources we take so that future generations can bask in her beauty as well.
Part of that commitment takes shape in our formulations by sourcing our ingredients sustainably and humanely, and only working with manufacturers who are equally committed to environmental protections.
We make an effort to be as eco-friendly with packaging as possible. This includes choosing high quality, Italian-made glass that can be recycle. Our shipping team uses upcycled materials and other kraft packaging that can easily be recycled. (80% of our raw materials used for our beechwood jar packaging components are certified by the Forests Stewardship Council.) We also create varied product-sizing options for esthetic professionals so that they can use consumables with less waste in the treatment room.
Finally, we’ve partnered with select organizations, like those below, to ensure that the reach of our impact extends far beyond the bathroom counter and can continue for generations to come.
For us, eco-friendly isn’t a trend, it’s the ethical foundation that Herbal Skin Solutions is built upon.

Explore Some of Our Impact Initiatives & Partnerships
1% For The Planet
The idea behind 1% For the Planet is simple — because companies profit from the resources they take from the earth, they should protect those resources. 1% For the Planet urges us to be 1% better to help accelerate smart environmental giving, and each year we donate a portion of our total sales to 1% For the Planet to be put to work on various environmental impact initiatives related to land, water, wildlife, food, and climate protection.
Trees for the Future
By partnering with Trees for the Future, every Herbal Skin Solutions purchase makes an exponential impact, and not just on the environmental level (we have contributed to the planting of over 44,000 trees & growing)! Trees For The Future also employs teams of farmers in poverty-stricken areas and they empower female entrepreneurs by requiring a minimum of 30% of the farms they work with to be female-owned.
Blue Ocean Project
As corporate sponsors of Ocean Blue Project, every dollar we contribute removes one pound of plastics from waterways, and with the organized Ocean Blue Project cleanups we’ve co-hosted + the support from direct purchases of our Land & Sea Mineral Mask, the Herbal Skin Solutions team and community has contributed to the removal of 31,000+ lbs. of plastic and debris from entering waterways that lead to the ocean! (Learn more about our partnership here.)
Carbon Offsets to Alleviate Poverty
We know that the more we grow and the more glow-getters we serve, we will continue to increase the amount of resources we use to operate. That's why we’re proud to partner with Carbon Offsets to Alleviate Poverty (COTAP) to continue expanding our mission while ensuring that our business pours back into replenishing resources back into Mother Earth. In 2023, our donation contributed to offseting 66.67 metric tonnes of CO2 and will be allocated to COTAP's projects in Uganda, Fiji, Indonesia, and India - track the progress of these project here.
When we combine efforts, we become a force multiplier for good…
That’s why, in addition to being a partner with 1% For The Planet, we’re also growing our impact through contributions to their Planet Impact Fund.
The Planet Impact Fund supports a variety of vetted environmental organizations working around the world to achieve positive, measurable outcomes for people and the planet in four impact areas including Rights to Nature, Conservation & Restoration, Resilient Communities, and Just Economies.
