Roberta Perry | Source | Owner at ScrubzBody Skin Care

It was 2005. Roberta was 43 but her skin felt 20 years older. It was dry, itchy, and irritated. After a droplet of blood fell on a document because she had itched her elbow so much, she knew something had to change. Roberta discovered exfoliating products, but there are different types, so she tried about 15-20 brands. Becoming like Goldilocks, the curly blond-haired girl who tried all the chairs, beds, and porridge and finally found what she liked, Roberta kept on searching. Since none completely satisfied her needs she made it herself. Roberta researched botanical oils and various exfoliants and mixed up different combinations. Her late sister, Michelle, joined her and in 2006 they started ScrubzBody Skin Care Products. They sell skincare, made by hand with skin-loving ingredients, but they really offer their customers permission for self-love, self-care, and pampering. ScrubzBody has incredible retail customers, private-label clients, and select wholesale customers. They host "Make Your Own" Scrub parties for kids and adults at the store. The business was featured as the highlighted business on the Season One finale of Sell it Like Serhant on Bravo TV.
