Health, Beauty & Wellness Awards 2021

Page 42 www.lux-review.com LUX 2021 Health Beauty and Wellness Awards Disappointed with the natural products that were available, Christine eventually developed her own natural skincare line, bath products and insect repellent alternatives. The encouragement from others and the results she had seen gave her the desire to share them with everyone else who has a need for or an interest in natural and fragrance-free living. It’s exciting to see what these formulas can do for the comfort and health of skin, and everyone can benefit. It is the mission of In the Potter’s Hand to provide the highest quality, allergen specific, non-toxic, gluten-free and fragrance-free skincare products, and to keep these products both effective and affordable, while observing the following core values during day-to-day operations: the use of pure, high-quality and non-toxic ingredients in all IPH formulations; consumer education on the potential health risks posed by certain synthetic chemicals, including fragrances, parabens and phthalates commonly found in skincare and household products; business activities conducted with the highest degree of integrity; and ongoing excellence in customer service. Ultimately, the company strives to help families to stay healthy and offers comfort to people with allergies, autism, celiac disease, chemical sensitivities or troubled skin. Located on the beautiful North Dakota prairie, In the Potter’s Hand Inc. is a family-owned, farm-based business which manufactures skincare products. These unique products were born of necessity after pesticide poisoning caused severe health problems for the company founder, Christine Gillund in July 1994. Coping with these health problems led her on a diligent search for quality, natural and fragrance- free replacements for the many perfumed and synthetic products that she could no longer use.

Throughout the years of operating In the Potter’s Hand, Christine’s experiences and faith changed people’s lives. Those who felt lost and without hope after receiving autoimmune deficiency diagnoses, those who had too many allergies to list, and the list goes on and on for all the lives she touched during her all to short lifetime. She would spend many hours talking to customers who were struggling, listening to the challenges they faced, and many times gave them hope by the end of the conversation. Living with a debilitating disease for so many years, Christine was full of natural solutions for everyday problems and gladly shared this information with everyone who was seeking. In 2013, Christine was given a miracle after years of faithful praying and seeking God’s healing powers. She was healed of her disease! For the last years of her earthly life, she was able to travel with her husband, Gerald, visiting family and friends, seeing sights that she never thought possible while sick, and spending time with those she loved without the fear of being ill after. Unfortunately, in July 2018, cancer claimed Christine’s life. She has been a guiding light for so many both medically and spiritually. Although Christine is no longer here physically, her many years of dedication to In the Potter’s Hand are the driving force to continue her amazing work. In the Potter’s Hand will remain a family- owned business and continue to live out Christine’s legacy through sharing her story of anguish, hope and never-ceasing faith, sharing the knowledge she left behind, and praying for all those who are seeking relief.
