RCB Research Team

Red Clay Beauty Research Team 

Our research team started the study of our products before any of us realized. Individually working throughout their research careers in areas that interested them became the foundation of our great company. Though each area of study was vastly different they created a completely well rounded team of thought. One brought recognition to problems and developed solutions in education in the difficult years of middle school. One helping people understand how their inner beauty can come alive through expression and traditional historic practices, including gardening. One study found a noticeable glowing revitalization of the soul in the aged was also studied in younger groups. The interaction with the earth seemed to provide confidence in age groups of females highly susceptible to depression. Further study found the relation of contact with the earth walking barefoot and getting dirty in gardens correlated with improved skin. Further, topically use of botanicals long term effects on skin showed less damage. And the idea of a skin care regime based on what is provided directly from the earth’s gardens was created. 

This open creative thinking process proved the hypothesis that what comes from the earth is best for biological organisms such as mammals. Through several iterations of the business and patent ideas Red Clay Beauty was born, and how our tag line came to be, Real Natural. Real Native. Real Science.
