MISSY CLAY
FOUNDER & CEO
Yummy Life Beauty Labs (private label manufacturing), Yummy Life Naturals LLC, Pepper Hill Naturals (Clean beauty brand) & the Original- A Yummy Apology (aromatherapy brand). Each company consists of clean beauty skincare products. We are comprised of all 4 companies and with each brand, strive to provide simply made, high quality bath, body and home products. We create fine fragrance (perfume), Laundry Care, hair care, fresh, artisan soaps, lotions, skincare and many more products that make you feel yummy and good about your choices! Each product is formulated with the highest quality, ingredients from around the world and US with a focus on sustainable, fair trade plant oils and botanicals. At Yummy Life Beauty Labs, including our brand Pepper Hill, we use Fair Trade Shae Butter & Organic Cocoa Butter from the Ghana region of Africa with our lavender being sourced from Colorado; because it is the BEST! We spend time visiting with owners/growers and makers; hand picking, sampling, gathering data and reviewing each ingredient we source. Also, making sure the products are phthalate, paraben & detergent free. YLN companies are honored to be cruelty free, FDA Registered, MOCRA compliant and GMP.
A Yummy Apology, began in 2009 when our youngest daughter was born with the skin condition eczema as well as Psoriasis. Months later, not finding a great solution on store shelves and not wanting to turn to steroid medications, I went to work to create something to soothe and help relieve irritation. The first product was a soap bar infused with organic plant and fruit oils, along with extracts, botanicals and essential oils; which became our best seller to this day, THE calendula lavender soap bar. The simple fresh, ingredients made a world of difference and A Yummy Apology began. Years of research and thousands of personal trials later, we now have hundreds of beautiful formulations and have expanded into private label manufacturing; Yummy Life Beauty Labs located in North Central Texas, the Dallas Fort Worth area , just along the golden corridor which makes us a great choice logistically.
Our corporate headquarters opened in 2018 alongside our warehouse in McKinney, Texas.
Our team at Yummy Life Beauty Labs hope you love our simply clean bath, body & home care products. We will do everything possible to make your experience with us exceptional!
