Why Does NicMarie Exist?

NicMarie is more than body care and handmade jewelry. It’s a reminder that self-care is not a luxury—it’s a necessary part of caring for yourself, healing, and rediscovering who you are.

So, why does NicMarie exist? And why should you care about this small business?

NicMarie exists because the Founder, Nicole, knows firsthand what it feels like to lose touch with yourself—and how powerful it can be to find your way back.

While living in the dry climate of Santa Cruz, California, Nicole reached a point where she looked in the mirror and barely recognized herself. She wasn’t taking care of her skin, and unresolved trauma had slowly crept into other areas of her life. Her skin had become gray and dull, her legs skin was cracked, and many of the moisturizers she tried caused so much burning and irritation that she had to immediately shower them off.

She kept buying moisturizers, trying new products, and feeling disappointed. Instead of giving up, Nicole decided to take matters into her own hands. She began researching natural skincare ingredients, learning about the benefits of ingredients such as shea butter, coconut oil, and essential oils. What started as a search for something that would help her skin quickly became a passion.

And then something beautiful happened.

Nicole’s friends and family began noticing the transformation in her skin. They wanted to experience the same results for themselves and started asking her to make products for them. One customer became another, and in 2019, skincare officially became part of the NicMarie product line.

The very first skincare product was the BEST Balm—a product that continues to be one of NicMarie’s best sellers today.

But NicMarie’s greatest success isn’t measured only in products sold. It’s measured in lives touched and smiles spread. Nicole has had the privilege of helping cancer patients through their own self-care journeys, speaking at West Chester University, and being featured on the cover of West Chester Lifestyle magazine in 2023.

NicMarie was born from one woman’s decision to care for herself again by wearing jewelry and using nourishing skin care. Today, that decision has grown into a small business with a bigger purpose: to encourage people to slow down, care for themselves, and remember to BREATHE CONFIDENCE and that they are worth the time and attention it takes to feel good in their own skin.

That’s why NicMarie exists.

And that’s why your support of this small business means so much.
