Meet the founder
Ashley Mitton
Ashley spent a decade working in social services in mental health and addictions before reaching a state of burnout + mental health decline.
Ashley founded Take Care Apothics in early 2023 as part of her recovery journey, after spending two years doing countless hours of recovery + inner healing work; requiring immeasurable patience +
self-compassion.
During her journey, Ashley recognized just how disconnected she and many others are to their mental + emotional health. Perpetually on the go; seldom having or rarely taking the time to care for ourselves with the level of attention + intention we deserve.
Ashley was inspired to support others in a new way by crafting intentional take care products that incorporate mindfulness + encourage daily rituals of connection to your inner world; while taking care of your skin, too!

how well do you take care of either?
In case you haven't, the short + sweet of it is the microbiome in your gut has a major role in your mental + skin health.
Increased levels of stress, unhealthy take care habits, and toxic products all contribute to the health + wellness of your mind + skin. Dysbiosis in your gut can result in mental health problems such as depression + anxiety as well as skin related issues such as eczema, rosacea, psoriasis, inflammation, and breakouts.
When your gut flora isn’t optimal, it causes hormone imbalances which are also contributors to a healthy mental state + skin wellness. Being mindful of the products you use + consume on your skin is imperative for overall health + wellness.
Many of the products you love are full of harmful ingredients that can negatively impact your health + wellbeing, including your mental + skin health?
Ingredients such phthalates (listed as "fragrance" or "parfum"), parabens, aluminum, synthetic colours - and sadly, the list goes on - can all be found in everyday personal + home care products such as your face + body products, soap + bath products, hair products, laundry detergent, household cleaners, scented candles, and more.
...all products you use to take care of yourself, your family, and your home - yikes!
Many of these ingredients are known to have neurological effects, cause skin irritation + inflammation, and are known to be endocrine disruptors (hormone disrupting).
We don't need to hide what's in our products - in fact, we're proud that our products are made with genuine, non-toxic, and organic ingredients that are safe for you + the environment.
