Let customers speak for us
from 3 reviewsMy skin looks and feels so good!
I typically don’t write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience with True Femme Sacred Silk. As a mature, post-menopausal woman, this formula has been a perfect match for my skin’s needs. Since I started using it, my skin feels incredibly nourished and hydrated. I’m so glad to have found a product that not only makes my skin feel rejuvenated, but also uses clean, natural botanical ingredients. I no longer have to worry about harsh chemicals—Sacred Silk gives me the peace of mind knowing it’s healthy and effective.
I have tried MANY products on my search for a moisturizer that is BOTH good for my body and easy to add to my everyday routine. This is my new absolute favorite!! It is easy to apply and absorbs quickly, leaving a healthy glow and deep moisturizing effect that lasts 24-48 hours for me! Plus True Femme’s intentionality & mission helps me feel more connected to my body and invested in my wellness!

Ditch the Toxins: 4 Simple Swaps to Detox Your Products
Have you ever stopped to consider how many ingredients from your beauty routine are absorbed into your body each day? It’s a little unsettling when you really think about it. What if some of those ingredients were quietly disrupting your hormones or impacting your long-term health? Years ago, Kelsey and I watched our mom have a major wake-up call. She meticulously examined every label in our home, tossing anything that contained ingredients she deemed harmful. One of the biggest culprits? Propylene Glycol—a petroleum-derived additive that makes products feel silky but has been linked to hormone disruption and even cancer. Shockingly, it’s everywhere—in skincare, haircare, and even processed foods. Emerging research shows that long-term exposure to these hidden toxins, especially when layered across multiple products, may contribute to chronic health issues. Women, in particular, are more vulnerable due to the natural hormonal fluctuations of our cycle. The truth is, many conventional beauty products contain chemicals that do more harm than good—disrupting hormones, irritating skin, and even accelerating aging instead of preventing it. So, what can we do? It starts with small but meaningful changes. Let’s transform your beauty routine into a nourishing ritual—one that supports both your skin and overall well-being. Here are 4 actionable steps to help you begin: 1. Ditch Synthetic Fragrances Synthetic fragrances don’t just smell “off”; they disrupt the brain’s olfactory system and hijack the limbic system, which can lead to memory issues, brain fog, and emotional imbalance. Choose fragrance-free products or those scented with pure, well-formulated essential oils instead. 2. Read the Labels on Your Skincare & Body Products Read labels carefully and avoid ingredients like parabens, phthalates, petroleum-based additives (like propylene glycol), and synthetic dyes. Look for products with natural, nourishing ingredients. 3. Swap Plastics for Glass Plastic isn’t just an environmental issue—it’s a personal one. Plastics leach chemicals into the products they contain, which we absorb. Start switching to glass packaging wherever possible. (Fun fact: recent studies have found microplastics in human brains during autopsies. Let that sink in.) 4. Be Mindful of Fabrics What you wear to bed—and what you sleep on—matters. During deep sleep, your body enters a state of restoration but is still absorbing its surroundings. If you're sleeping on fabrics like microfiber, polyester, or other synthetics, these materials—often made from plastics—can expose you to unnecessary toxins. Instead, choose organic or chemical-free cotton or bamboo bedding and pajamas to create a cleaner, more supportive environment for your body during this vital time. Progress Over Perfection Creating a cleaner, more nourishing beauty routine doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. It’s not about overhauling everything at once—it’s about making small, intentional choices that add up over time. Every mindful swap brings you closer to a routine that truly supports your well-being. Start with just one change this week. Maybe it’s swapping out a moisturizer for one with pure, plant-based ingredients or choosing a sulfate-free shampoo when your current one runs out. These small steps, taken consistently, create lasting impact. And remember, you’re not in this alone. We’d love to hear about your journey! What’s the first product you’re swapping? What changes have you noticed? Share your wins with us on social—we’re here to support and celebrate with you. Your home, your body, and your routine should be a source of nourishment, not stress. Let’s create space for more wellness, more self-care, and more intention—one beauty ritual at a time. ✨

Fatty Acids for Skin: Why Fat is Actually the Secret to Glowing, Healthy Skin
Historically, fats have gotten quite a bad reputation. But here’s the truth: our cells are primarily composed of fats. Depriving your body of these essential, nutrient-dense compounds can impact you on a cellular level. You need fatty acids (which are found in fats) to build and maintain healthy cells – and a healthy body. Naturally, this shows up in the skin, too. Your skin relies on a balanced ratio of fatty acids for optimal function. With more research emerging on the role of fats in both the body and skin, the importance of fatty acids for skin health becomes crystal clear. Fats nourish and moisturize the skin in a unique and biocompatible way, which is why they're a cornerstone of our formulations. At True Femme Collective, we’ve always been inspired by nature’s wisdom, and that includes harnessing the power of fatty acids for lasting skin health and vitality. What Are Fatty Acids? The term "fatty acids" might sound a bit science-heavy, but don’t worry – we’re breaking it down so you can understand how these compounds work wonders for your skin. Fatty acids are natural components of plant or animal-based ingredients. Despite the term "acid," they’re actually deeply nourishing, protective, and perfectly suited to complement your skin’s needs. Internally, fatty acids are essential to keep your body functioning optimally. Some key roles they play include: Supporting heart health Regulating inflammation Maintaining healthy blood pressure Balancing the nervous system Boosting your immune response And yes, they’re just as essential for your skin. Why Your Skin Loves Fatty Acids Here’s why fatty acids are your skin’s best friend: → Fatty acids are the building blocks for lipids, which help maintain a strong skin barrier and microbiome, giving your skin the structure and protection it needs. While there are many different types of fatty acids, each with its own set of benefits, the magic lies in their variety. Let’s dive into the types and benefits of fatty acids for your skin. Types of Fatty Acids There are a few key differences between fatty acids, but the most important are whether they’re essential or non-essential, and their saturation levels. Let’s keep it simple and break these down. Essential vs. Non-Essential Fatty Acids Non-Essential Fatty Acids: Your body can create these fatty acids by converting amino acids from your diet. (Another reason to keep protein intake high!) Essential Fatty Acids: Your body doesn’t produce these, so you must consume them through your diet or apply them topically via skincare. Some of the best-known types are Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. Saturation RateFatty acids also vary in how saturated they are. Their saturation rate impacts how they interact with your skin. Saturated Fatty Acids: These are great for locking in moisture and softening the skin. (Ex: Tucuma Butter, Kokum Butter, Avocado Oil) Monounsaturated Fatty Acids: These are soothing and help restore the skin’s moisture barrier. (Ex: Sea Buckthorn Oil, Avocado Oil) Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFAs): Known for their anti-inflammatory properties, PUFAs can calm irritated skin and protect against free radicals. (Ex: Raspberry Seed Oil) Our Favorite Ingredients Rich in Fatty Acids At True Femme Collective, we embrace a variety of nutrient-dense plant-based oils and butters. Here are a few of our go-to ingredients, each packed with beneficial fatty acids to nourish and support your skin: Tucuma Butter: This exotic butter is rich in saturated fatty acids that provide intense hydration, improve skin texture, and lock in moisture for lasting softness. Kokum Butter: Lightweight yet deeply moisturizing, Kokum butter is an excellent source of stearic acid, which helps regenerate skin cells and protect against dryness. Sea Buckthorn Oil: A powerhouse of Omega-7, Sea Buckthorn oil works wonders for hydration, skin repair, and reducing inflammation. Its high concentration of monounsaturated fatty acids makes it perfect for skin regeneration. Avocado Oil: Rich in oleic acid, this nourishing oil helps moisturize, soothe, and soften the skin. It’s also a fantastic source of antioxidants, which protect against environmental stressors. Raspberry Seed Oil: High in both Omega-3 and Omega-6, Raspberry Seed Oil helps reduce inflammation, protect the skin’s barrier, and lock in hydration, while also providing UV protection. Why You Need Fatty Acids for Glowing Skin Your skin’s health depends on fatty acids for structure, function, and protection. Skincare products rich in these beneficial fatty acids help: Strengthen the skin barrier and lock in hydration Improve skin texture and smoothness Combat signs of aging and environmental stress Calm inflammation and soothe sensitive skin Balance oil production for a clearer complexion Promote healing and faster recovery from skin damage At True Femme Collective, we believe in the power of nature’s most nourishing ingredients, and fatty acids are no exception. Our products are expertly formulated to harness the transformative benefits of these powerful compounds for long-lasting skin health and vitality. Harnessing the Power of Fat for Your Skin Fatty acids are more than just a buzzword – they’re the foundation of healthy, glowing skin. At True Femme Collective, we’ve been incorporating them into our formulations from day one. They play a critical role in everything from hydration to skin healing and protection. Our commitment is to always source the purest, most nourishing fatty acid-rich ingredients to bring out the best in your skin – naturally.
