Sarena DeBaca was in the pharmaceutical industry for 15 years but found herself increasingly at odds with her career. 'It’s so difficult to be passionate about something when your professional opinion does not align with your personal beliefs.' After careful thought, and the support of her husband, Sarena made the decision to quit her job. Sarena felt a calling that she simply could not ignore. She says, 'I felt this urgency in my heart to create an organic skincare line that would provide nourishing and healing properties while also giving glory to God, so I did just that.'
Sarena's skincare line called Golgotha Apothecary, is about providing truly clean and quality sourced ingredients for all skin types. Her products are free from any preservatives, synthetic chemicals, artificial fragrances, and dyes. She was inspired to pursue her business due to what she saw was a lack of transparency from other companies that claimed to be 'clean' or 'natural' while their ingredients list said otherwise. Sarena utilizes unrefined ingredients in order to maximize their healing properties and nutrient content.
Golgotha Apothecary is also unique because they are largely oils, which Sarena argues provide a deeper nourishment. 'Oils provide concentrated nutrients without added preservatives, stabilizers, or other harmful chemicals. This means fewer ingredients which is always best.' she says. Oils also penetrate the skin better to deliver their benefits where they are most needed.
Golgotha Apothecary is therefore a great gift idea this holiday season for just about everyone. There are a total of 10 products which include face oils, beard oil, hair oil, body oil, body polishes and body butter. These natural oils contain 'essential fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants'. The oil glides onto the skin without feeling greasy and is quickly absorbed so you can apply it without worrying about any mess.
Sarena only started the business in February of 2024 and has already received incredible feedback from her customers. Some clients reported clearing of their long-suffering acne issues after using her David and Goliath oil. Another woman wrote to share that her painful eczema, caused by a gluten allergy, had significantly reduced after using her Crucifixion body butter for 30 days.
Our skin is the largest organ of our body and Sarena says, 'the average person absorbs over 100 chemicals from skin care products every day.' These 'unpronounceable' ingredients may cause lasting harm. So give the gift of healthy skin by choosing from any of the Golgotha Apothecary line this Christmas.
