Why Homemade Haven Exists
Homemade Haven began with a simple question:
Why is it so hard to know what we’re actually using in our homes?
Like many people, I began paying closer attention to my health, particularly metabolic health, and what I was putting in and around my body.
That curiosity led me away from ultra-processed foods and toward a deeper understanding of how everyday environmental exposures can affect the body at a cellular level.
What surprised me most was how closely this connected to the products we use every day, cleaners, toiletries, and skincare, and how little transparency or practical choice most people are given.
Homemade Haven exists to make that choice easier.
What We Help You Do
We help everyday people reduce unnecessary chemical exposure by making DIY living:
- Approachable — no formulation background required
- Practical — ingredients sized for real home use
- Clear — plain-English explanations, not jargon
- Flexible — make it yourself or choose a ready-made option
This isn’t about perfection. It’s about doing better, more often, with confidence.
Why DIY Often Feels Hard
Many people want to try DIY but run into the same problems:
- Ingredients sold only in bulk
- Confusing or incomplete recipes
- High shipping costs for single items
- Unclear instructions or safety guidance
- No sense of what’s actually essential
Homemade Haven removes those barriers by curating only the most commonly used DIY ingredients, packaging them in realistic sizes, and pairing them with clear, tested recipes you can actually follow.
No overwhelm. No guesswork. No wasted supplies.
