Our story

I was completely blindsided when perimenopause hit in my early 40s.

Among all the symptoms, it was my skin that truly knocked my confidence.
Redness. Breakouts. Dryness (everywhere). Sensitivity. Sometimes all at once!
Nothing I’d used before helped — and everything I tried next made it worse. I didn’t feel like me anymore. I just wanted to hide.

Most of what was available felt outdated or patronising. Lavender-scented formulas that did nothing, miracle cures that stung my now tender skin, or brands built around "ageing gracefully" that I didn’t relate to.

I didn’t want to be told to “embrace it.” I wanted real, effective skincare that worked with what my skin was going through.

I’d co-founded a CBD business years before, so I knew cannabinoids had potential. But what I discovered next changed everything: CBG — the rare, stem-cell parent of CBD — and hemp seed oil had powerful benefits beyond simply calming skin. It helped balancing, and repairing my hormonally-ravaged skin.

That was the spark that became Made of More.

I teamed up with leading clinicians to create our HC+ Complex®, a science-led blend of CBG, hemp seed oil, and clinically proven actives, and built the kind of skincare I wish I’d found when my skin flipped out, all those years before.

This isn’t the time to disappear under the covers or into the shadows. It’s the time to take up space, and demand more for our skin, and ourselves.
