The Origins of ResQskin Therapeutic Skin Care

"The power of hindsight is the ability to view and feel that brilliance grow and flourish from inception to reaching its full potential, then letting go, to let brilliance do its work."

The seed for ResQskin was planted over 30 years ago

As a young mother of 22, Julie Jasper developed a keen interest in herbs. She enthusiastically devoured books and articles on the topic, building a strong foundation of knowledge about the medicinal and therapeutic qualities that herbs and their extracts can offer.

Rather than pursuing the more common route of growing herbs, Julie became fascinated with the oils extracted from herbs and plants. This fascination soon took on a practical application when her first child was born. Julie discovered the joy and benefits of bonding with her child through the senses of touch, smell, and sight.

A regular massage routine became an essential part of bonding with her baby, providing an effective tool to soothe and settle her child during times of distress.

Essential oils healing properties

From that time on, the powerful effects of plant-extracted oils on Julie and her family served as the catalyst for her continued learning and sharing of the healing properties of essential oils and human touch. Essential oils became an integral part of their lives and continue to support them through life's challenges.

Julie was inspired to develop ResQskin out of a need to protect and hydrate her skin while working in one of the harshest parts of Australia - the Pilbara in Western Australia. Working on a mine site 45 kilometres east of Tom Price, where the only water source was bore water, Julie soon found that her skin was suffering. Eczema erupted, covering her body in rashes and leaving her skin dry and itchy.

ResQskin Miracle Oil

Using her knowledge and experience with essential oils, Julie began experimenting with blends to restore her skin's health. It didn’t take long for her to create a fabulous cream, which she initially called her "Miracle Cream."

This cream, now known as ResQskin's signature product, Rapid Relief Cream, not only soothed Julie's ailments but also restored her skin to healthy hydration.

Rapid Relief Cream was a concentrated formula designed to target specific problem areas. However, Julie also needed something that could cover her whole body and protect her skin from the harsh, damaging water.

In conjunction with the Miracle Cream, Julie developed ResQskin Rapid Relief Oil - a dynamic, all-over body oil with the same blend of plant-based oil extracts, complemented by a special blend of carrier oils. This oil restored and rejuvenated her skin, eliminating any further skin problems. She would apply the oil after showering, and from then on, her skin issues were resolved.

Word spreads quickly

Others on the mine site also struggled with skin ailments - stubborn sores, split lips, and cracked skin on hands and toes - so Julie shared her creams to help those suffering similar conditions.

The first colleague Julie shared her cream with was a woman suffering from a severe cold sore at the base of her nose.

It had been there for several weeks, resisting all other treatments. The sore had even started spreading into her nose. Although unsure how the cream would work on such an acute ailment, Julie advised her to apply it three times a day and see what happened. Three days later, the woman was overjoyed. The cream had provided almost instant relief, and within days, the cold sore began to clear up.

Excited by the results, she shared the cream with a friend who also had cold sores, and later reported that her friend experienced similarly rapid results.

Word quickly spread around the mine site, and Julie began making small jars of the "Miracle Cream," receiving endless positive feedback. The results could not be ignored and became the catalyst for Julie's continued work with essential oils, fueling her dream of making this amazing cream available to anyone suffering from skin ailments.

The ResQskin legend continues

Years later, and many miles away from the mine sites, Julie continues to hear from happy customers with incredible stories of the cream's effectiveness, not only for themselves but also for their loved ones.

It was those early days, witnessing the impact her cream had on people's lives, that convinced Julie ResQskin would practically sell itself due to its powerful results. And true to that belief, ResQskin has continued to thrive, helping countless people with their skin care needs.
