Peak Scents Skincare Secrets

Peak Scents

DeeAnn Tracy’s all-natural, effective skincare options

DeeAnn Tracy spent much of her childhood in her family’s herb store in Downtown Flagstaff, where her mother was an ethnobotanist and herbalist. There, she fell in love with the power of herbs, helping create herbal tinctures and remedies for everything from aches and pains to colds.

After college, she headed to Southwest School of Botanical Medicine, studying plant anatomy, physiology, and pharmacology. But, it wasn’t until she discovered river rafting that she began on her path of launching Peak Scents.

It was the early 1990s and Tracy was leading two-week rafting trips from the Grand Canyon. During those trips, her feet were in the water often—which led to skin problems. And, the chemicals in the sunscreens she and her fellow river runners were using were giving them rashes.

She wanted products that helped her skin but were all-natural. Since they didn’t exist, she created them, launching Peak Scents in 1993.

“I drew on my background as an herbalist to create something to help that was all-natural, and utilized plants, vitamins, and antioxidants,” she explains.

Today, her line is in demand all over the world and known for its natural ingredients and results.

“My motto is that if you wouldn’t eat it, don’t put it on your skin because it absorbs right in. I’m just very passionate about natural skincare, combining plants and antioxidants for very effective formulas,” she explains.

She also strives to offer her products at affordable prices.

“I also believe in offering a fair price,” Tracy says. “We make all of our products in-house, so we’re also able to offer our products for a really fair price because I want everyone to be able to use them and afford them.”

Here, some of our favorites.
