"The results were nothing short of miraculous."

For as long as I can remember, my life was defined by illness. From birth, I battled asthma, eczema, hay fever, and a laundry list of allergies. Even something as innocent as playing on the grass with friends left me covered in hives. My childhood was a cycle of doctor visits, prescribed creams, and an endless array of medications—none of which seemed to truly help.

But my story is not one of despair; it’s one of transformation.

In my 20s, after years of enduring the constant irritation and discomfort of my skin conditions, I decided to take matters into my own hands. The pharmaceutical solutions I’d relied on for decades were failing me, and I knew I needed a different approach. I began experimenting with natural ingredients, meticulously testing and refining what worked best for my skin. To my amazement, my symptoms started to ease. My skin calmed, and for the first time, I felt a glimmer of hope.

Encouraged by my progress, I started creating my own skincare products at home. What began as a personal project soon blossomed into something much bigger. When I opened my hair salon, I started offering my handmade haircare products to clients. The response was overwhelming—people with similar skin sensitivities began to see improvements too. It was then I realised that my journey could benefit others.

As I delved deeper into my research, I uncovered the root cause of my lifelong battle with allergies. I discovered that many of the prescribed creams and commercial cosmetics I had used were laden with toxic ingredients. These products, intended to heal, were actually exacerbating my conditions. It was a revelation that changed everything.

Determined to cleanse my body from the inside out, I committed to a plant-based diet and switched to using only plant-based cosmetics and household products. For a full year, I lived this way—no exceptions. The results were nothing short of miraculous. Not only did my eczema disappear, but my asthma and hay fever also vanished. By the time I turned 40, I was living an allergy-free life for the first time. The health transformation was so profound that I knew I had to share my discoveries with the world, leading to the creation of our product range, Dot & Lola.

But my story doesn’t end there.

Around the time of my 40th birthday, my daughter was diagnosed with asthma, the same condition that had plagued me for decades. My wife, Jane, and I were understandably concerned. However, something didn’t sit right with me. After years of living with the consequences of misdiagnosis and mistreatment, I wasn’t ready to accept a lifetime of medication for my daughter without further investigation. We sought a second opinion, and to our relief, we learned that our daughter’s condition was not asthma at all; her lungs were simply still developing.

This revelation made me question everything I thought I knew about my own health. Had I ever truly had asthma, or had I spent a lifetime on unnecessary medication? I’ll never know for sure, but what I do know is this: today, at 46, I’m the healthiest I’ve ever been. I no longer suffer from any health conditions, and I’m driven by a passion to help others achieve the same freedom from allergies and skin issues.

Through Dot & Lola, we are not just selling products; we are spreading a message of hope and empowerment. We are challenging the status quo of the beauty and healthcare industries by offering natural, plant-based alternatives that genuinely work. My journey from illness to health is a testament to the power of nature, and I’m committed to helping others discover the same healing.

My story is more than just a personal triumph—it's a call to action.

We must question what we’re putting in and on our bodies, for ourselves and for future generations. I invite you to join me in this movement towards a healthier, more natural way of living.
