To Be Your Best as a Mother, You Have to Take Care of Yourself First

19/11/2023

Creating MUTHA™ and its line of products has been a labor of love in every sense of the word. When first-time mother Hope Smith was pregnant in 2015, she looked for anything, especially natural and plant-based products, that would help with her impending stretch marks. Nothing on the market, whether it be a drug store or high-end product, fit the bill. She knew she would have to create something herself.

After researching ingredients, Hope turned her kitchen into an experimental laboratory, committed to creating a product that would be beneficial to the skin. From that kitchen, the first body butter for MUTHA™ was born. Friends took notice, asking for more and more samples. They could not get enough. To keep up with demand, she moved into a lab where she continued to tweak the formula.

She did so for two years until she felt comfortable replacing every body oil and cream on her vanity with her new products. In no time, that kitchen project turned into a luxury skincare brand MUTHA™. All in all, over 400+ formulas were tested to perfect the MUTHA™ Body Butter. The brand launched in the fall of 2019 with two products: MUTHA™ Body Butter and MUTHA™ Body Oil. While MUTHA™ has launched several other products since then, Hope’s philosophy for her products has remained the same:

"When I make a product, I want all of the expensive, best-for-you things up top. I don’t want to put water first or anything that’s not actually great for the skin."
