Dawn Mellowship studied a BA in Politics at the University of Sheffield and at 24 years old developed a back condition which only improved after learning a Reiki course. Dawn subsequently became a Reiki practitioner and teacher. Also suffering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia and Multiple Chemical Sensitivities Dawn quickly realised that her diet and choice of consumer products was contributing to her ill health. As a result Dawn became vegan, switched to organic foods and streamlined her beauty regime, ditching conventional cosmetic products in favour of more natural alternatives. 

It is Dawn Mellowship's goal to help people make improvements in their lives on all levels and educate consumers about the toxic nature of chemicals in the cornucopia of products we purchase on a daily basis, starting with beauty products.
