Six Lessons That Shaped Six Twenty Skincare: Our Journey of Resilience, Connection, and Biocompatible Skincare
“You are where you are—not by choice, but by the design of your Creator. If not for the betterment of yourself, then for the betterment of those around you.”
These words have stayed with us, a reminder that life’s path is purposeful—even when it’s difficult, even when it leads us through grief and growth we hadn’t anticipated. Six Twenty Skincare was born from the desire to create something meaningful, something that honors the journey, the people, and the values that brought us here.
In the past year, we faced losses that reshaped our lives—Jenny’s grandmother and my father both passed away. Their legacies are woven into every product, every choice we make. Six Twenty is more than a skincare line; it’s a reflection of resilience, healing, and the lessons life has taught us along the way. We’d like to share six powerful reminders that shaped our journey and, we hope, will resonate with you as you navigate your own path.
1. Healing Comes in Layers
Grief taught us that healing isn’t something you can rush. After losing loved ones, we discovered that healing is layered, like the cycles of nature or the way skin rebuilds itself over time. Just as the earth renews itself, so do we, but only when we’re patient and allow the process to unfold naturally.
This understanding guides the way we approach skincare. Healing, we believe, isn’t a quick fix; it’s a journey. In Six Twenty, we’ve chosen biocompatible ingredients that honor the skin’s natural rhythm—ingredients like bison tallow and sweetgrass, which work with the skin, layer by layer. Each time you use our products, we hope you’re reminded that true healing honors time, patience, and the beauty of renewal.
2. Connection is the Heart of Everything
For Jenny, the meaning of connection has been shaped by the lasting gifts passed down through generations of strong, nurturing women. Her grandmother was a life-long learner, whose journey of love and resilience blossomed over time. As a great-grandmother, she embodied the purest form of connection, always creating space to share warmth and wisdom with her family. Her legacy lives on in Six Twenty, guiding us to create products that carry this sense of love and belonging.
Each item we craft is a reflection of these values, designed to connect and resonate beyond us. Sweetgrass, one of our most cherished ingredients, symbolizes unity—a grounding element that reminds us of the power in nurturing, in caring, and in offering something meaningful to others. Through Six Twenty, we hope to share the lasting gifts of connection and care, an invitation to experience love rooted in the earth and passed through generations.
3. Resilience is Built in the Tough Moments
The path to building Six Twenty hasn’t been easy. There were times when we questioned whether the obstacles were too great, whether we could keep going. But resilience doesn’t come from comfort; it’s born in the hard times, when everything in you is tested.
Resilience, we’ve learned, is a gift passed down through generations. It’s the strength we carry from our parents, our grandparents, and all who came before. My father’s strength, Jenny’s grandmother’s kindness—these are the qualities we hold close. With every product we create, we’re reminded that resilience is part of who we are, that it’s something we can pass on. Six Twenty is our way of sharing that resilience with you, a reminder of your own strength and what you’re capable of.
4. Balance is Where Beauty Lives
Balance is a guiding force in everything we do. Life has a way of reminding us that when we’re out of balance—whether it’s overworked, overstretched, or emotionally drained—it takes its toll. In skincare, as in life, we find beauty in balance.
Biocompatibility reflects this belief. We choose ingredients that support your skin’s natural harmony, that honor its own cycles and needs. Our products are here to remind you to seek balance, to find moments of stillness and connection, to care for yourself in ways that go beyond the surface. True beauty, we believe, is born in these moments of alignment, in honoring our own boundaries and needs.
5. Legacy Lives in the Things We Leave Behind
Legacy isn’t just found in grand achievements; it’s in the small, everyday acts of care. For Jenny, roses are a symbol of that legacy, connecting her to the strong, loving women in her family. Every rose reminds her of their kindness, their resilience, and the values they passed on.
In Six Twenty, we see each product as a piece of our legacy, a bridge between past and future. Bison tallow, elk tallow, sweetgrass—each ingredient is chosen not only for what it does but for what it represents. When you use Six Twenty, you’re part of this legacy. We hope our products become part of your own rituals, a reminder of the people who shaped you, the memories that guide you, and the legacy you’re building in your own life.
6. Forgiveness and Love Transcend Everything
There was a time when I struggled to reconcile my relationship with my father. My parents’ relationship ended painfully, and when it did, it left hurt that wasn’t easy to forgive. But I reached out to him, even though it was difficult. We had an honest conversation, and through that, we found a path to healing. He became a part of my family’s life—mine, Jenny’s, and our daughter’s. To this day, our daughter gets tears in her eyes when she thinks of him and says, “I have tears because I was thinking of Grandpa.”
My father once told me, “I thought you’d be the hardest to talk to, but you’ve been the easiest. You’re like me. You have a heart like mine.” After he passed, someone told me, “Grief is love with no place to go.” That love, the connection that remains, is what I carry forward. It’s woven into every product we make, every intention we set. Forgiveness, love, and the understanding that we are more than enough—these are the values I hope Six Twenty brings to you. We are all more than enough, each with an infinite potential and purpose, each here to love and be loved.
What We Bring to the Table: A Legacy of Healing, Strength, and Connection
Over the years, we’ve heard the question, “What do you bring to the table?” At times, we’ve even asked it of ourselves. For a long time, the answer wasn’t obvious. But as we reflect on what Six Twenty has become, the answer is clearer than ever.
What we bring to the table is more than skincare; it’s a legacy, a story woven from the lives and wisdom of those who came before us. Six Twenty is a reflection of our ancestors’ resilience, their connection to the land, and the strength they passed down through generations. It’s a testament to the lessons they left with us, to our commitment to healing, and to our belief that true beauty and strength come from honoring who we are and where we come from.
Through Six Twenty, we bring a unique blend of love, intention, and purpose—a commitment to balance and beauty not only for the skin but for the spirit. Every ingredient, every product is infused with our dedication to creating something meaningful, something rooted in respect for nature, heritage, and each individual’s journey. We bring our whole selves to this work, grounded in the belief that we are all part of something larger, that we are each more than enough.
When you choose Six Twenty, you become part of this story, a reflection of the resilience, connection, and purpose we all carry. This is what we bring to the table—a legacy of healing, a commitment to authenticity, and an invitation to share in something beautiful, lasting, and true.
