MY STORY

Clinical Practice

My journey began in clinical practice, working as a Chinese herbalist and acupuncturist, where I witnessed daily how deeply the skin reflects our inner state of health.

Over the years, I began developing external herbal preparations for my patients to address specific skin concerns alongside their internal herbal treatments. Through this work, I saw how medicinal herbs applied to the skin can soothe, restore, and support the skin’s natural healing process.

Alongside this, I began creating preparations for myself, drawing on my knowledge of Chinese Herbal Medicine and my love for natural ingredients. What began as a personal ritual gradually evolved into Shenming Botanicals, a considered collection of small-batch botanical skincare.

“My first beauty oil was not created as a product, but as something I made for myself, trusted and loved using.”

Botanical preparations, informed by tradition and clinical experience

Each formula is crafted with purpose, using carefully selected herbs, plant extracts and botanical ingredients chosen for their skin-supporting properties.

Rooted in Chinese Herbal Medicine and shaped by years of clinical experience, these preparations are designed to bring together tradition, function and care.

Shenming Botanicals has grown from something deeply personal to me: the way I work, the plants I have come to know, and the care I put into every preparation.
