My AmStaff Terrier had some patches of fur missing due to allergies.. the salve works like a charm. She LOVES the smell and sits like a perfect lady when it's time to put it on (also softens up her once insanely dry paw pads), her fur is back and she is now on a grain-free diet as well! Thanks." Shirley & Molly, Hudson, NY ★★★★★ " The foot cream is one of my favorites. My feet were rough and calloused and since I started the foot cream, my feet are velvety soft, and I'm not ashamed to wear sandals anymore. I have my family members using it and they all love it. I recommend the eucalyptus and peppermint scent. It smells so clean, and the fragrance is not overpowering. I use the foot cream on my hands, legs, knees, elbows wherever the skin is rough." — Denise, Rosendale, NY ★★★★★ "I was at a flea market in Rhinebeck last year, and while killing some time waiting for my husband I stumbled on your booth. Not knowing what to expect I purchased small. So sorry I did because I ran out and NEEDED more! I bought the tiny jar of eye cream. I have since ordered more in the larger jar, and this year when we go I will be sure to stop by. Thanks for making the car show fun for women."

Discover the story behind Essentially Yours, a Hudson Valley–based small-batch skincare brand rooted in clean ingredients, customization, and thoughtful formulation. Natural, Small-Batch Skincare Made to Be Essentially Yours Welcome to Essentially Yours, a Hudson Valley–based small business dedicated to creating carefully crafted skincare and pet care products in small batches. What began as a personal search for simple, well-formulated products has grown into a presence at local farmers markets and community gatherings — and into a brand built on ingredient quality, thoughtful formulation, and meaningful connection. Customization remains central to our approach. Many of our products can be tailored to individual preferences, including essential oil selections, fragrance-free options, or ingredient adjustments for specific sensitivities. Our goal is to offer flexible options so your skincare routine can reflect your needs and lifestyle. Each batch is prepared with close attention to freshness, consistency, and formulation integrity. By maintaining a small-scale, hands-on process, we are able to provide clean, intentionally developed products that feel personal while remaining accessible and responsibly made. Our Mission We are committed to using high-quality, naturally derived ingredients selected for their skin compatibility and overall sensory experience. Each formulation is designed to offer a refined, balanced feel while maintaining a responsible and transparent approach to ingredient selection. Our mission is to produce clean, small-batch skincare that emphasizes ingredient integrity, customization, and clear communication. We formulate with thoughtfully chosen botanical oils, plant extracts, and essential oils, alongside fragrance-free options for individuals with sensitivities. Every product is developed with care to support the appearance and feel of healthy skin while providing accessible, customizable options without compromising quality or formulation standards. Our Philosophy At Essentially Yours, our approach is guided by a commitment to ingredient integrity, thoughtful formulation, and informed choice. We believe skincare and pet care products should be developed with transparency, using naturally derived ingredients selected for quality, compatibility, and purpose. We value simplicity and clarity in formulation. That is why our products are made without synthetic dyes and are crafted with naturally derived ingredients, incorporating organic options whenever feasible and available. We prioritize essential oils for aroma where appropriate and provide fragrance oil or fragrance-free options upon request to help accommodate individual preferences and sensitivities. We believe personal care is not one-size-fits-all. Customization, when possible within our formulation and safety parameters, allows customers to select options that align with their needs while maintaining product consistency and quality standards. By producing in small batches, we support careful oversight, freshness, and responsible production practices. Our philosophy centers on creating accessible, customizable products rooted in transparency, quality, and respect for both people and the ingredients we use. Meet the Owner & Formulator My name is Toni Lynne, and I am the owner of Essentially Yours. As a lifelong resident of New York’s Hudson Valley, I’ve always felt a strong connection to nature and an appreciation for practical, health-conscious living. That perspective became the foundation of this business. I earned an AAS in Radiologic Technology from Hudson Valley Community College in 1995 and spent ten years working in medical imaging, including X-ray, Mammography, MRI, and CT. That experience reinforced the importance of precision, safety standards, effective communication, and attention to detail — principles that continue to guide my business today. In 2005, I began developing natural bath and body products for personal use after researching commonly used ingredients in commercial products and seeking less toxic alternatives. What began as careful study and small-scale experimentation gradually expanded to creating products for family and friends. In 2011, I formally established Essentially Yours as a business. Today, Essentially Yours offers a growing collection of more than three dozen products, shaped in large part by conversations at markets and feedback from the community I serve. Many new additions begin as customer questions or special requests. When developing something new or customized, I take a careful, methodical approach to ensure each formula remains consistent, well-balanced, and aligned with my established standards. Essentially Yours continues to operate as a woman-owned, small-batch business rooted in ingredient integrity, clear communication, and intentional formulation. Every product is prepared with attention and care, combining thoughtfully selected ingredients with practical, everyday usability. Our Commitment to Clean Ingredients We are committed to using thoughtfully selected ingredients chosen for their quality, compatibility, and role within each formulation. Our products are built around botanical-based components, essential oils incorporated with care, and fragrance-free options for individuals with sensitivities. We avoid synthetic dyes and unnecessary additives, focusing instead on purposeful ingredients developed in small batches with attention to consistency and formulation standards.
