That friendship has grown into a business endeavor that fuses their passion for beauty and love of the South. Sapelo Skin Care, the duo’s brainchild, is unlike any other beauty product on the shelf. “We wanted quality skin care products,” said Edwards. “The problem was, so many of the products out there contain some type of harsh chemical that actually can damage the skin.” Their solution was to create their own skincare line that included local plant and marine botanicals including seaweed, honey, oyster shell calcium, gardenia stem cells and magnolia oil extract. With the help of experienced cosmetic scientist Michael Warshaw and their physician husbands, Dr. John Duttenhaver and Dr. Joseph Edwards, the partners developed a 3-step, 28-day recovery system that hydrates, nourishes, and improves skin quality. “Just like the tides bring nutrients to our marshes, our products rejuvenate the skin with hydration and nourishment,” said Duttenhaver. “The 3-step Skin Recovery System includes a renewing serum, rejuvenating cream and a softening emollient with essential oils. These products combined will restore skin’s health and appearance.” The partners are excited for the future of Sapelo Skin Care. “We will be the featured product at the Polished Beauty Lounge, opening in late August on Whitaker Street.” Duttenhaver added. “It’s an exciting venture that we know will be a huge success.”‹ Restoring Eye Cream In addition to local establishments, you can find Sapelo online at sapeloskincare.com. 26 S OUT H M AGA ZI NE.C OM
