Welcome to our Page. Thanks for stopping by!
Southern Magnolia Minerals was formed in 2001 by Owners Todd & Barbara Huffman. I was always interested in colors and makeup since I can remember! My husband, well, knew nothing! lol! I will say that he is the wind beneath my wings! I have to give him credit, as he works full-time and then comes home to help me full-time with packaging, jarring, shipping, and everything it takes to run a home-based business.
As a teenager growing up in the hills of Kentucky, I was not allowed to wear makeup. This sparked a rebellion in me that I think about each time I create a new color! I remember drawing rainbows and hanging pictures in my room that were filled with vibrant beautiful colors and wished that I could be as beautiful and vibrant as those colors. I clung to that thought as I made my way through College experimenting and painting faces of every girl in our dorm!! I was almost consumed with makeup, never walked outside without it! Although I had to take it off when I went home on the weekends to visit my parents, I could not wait to get back to school so I could be beautiful again!
I always knew cosmetics could be better. Growing up, I have to admit, my skin was flawless (that mountain air does have its benefits!), then when I was away at College, I couldn't understand why I started having skin problems with breakouts, dry spots & redness, I eventually figured it had to be the chemicals in the makeup that was ruining my skin. I then went on a quest for all-natural products, which back in the 80's was hard to find! I would go without makeup to clear my skin up, only to wear it again because a new color had come out from the many makeup companies!
Yes, I was addicted!!! Finally, I studied Cosmetics, the positive benefits, the healing properties, the natural look & feel. I finished college in 1993 armed with a degree, I learned the art of making your own cosmetics! It made sense to use it, and once I tried it, I haven't looked back at Cover Girl or Estee Lauder again!! lol! My skin looks and feels great, and more importantly, it feels so healthy, natural and flawless, just like my teenage days in the mountains! And finally, my dream came true and Southern Magnolia Minerals was born! So, I invite you to come Discover The Hidden Treasure of Southern Beauty!
