About 1922
FAQ
What does 1922 stand for?
1922 shop was inspired by my grandfather (born in 1922), who believed in simple kitchen remedies over complicated formulas, this shop is a tribute to his quiet wisdom.
From salt to ginger to coconut oil, he trusted natural ingredients and a less-is-more approach to vibrant skin and strong health. His influence continues to shape everything I create.

What do you mean by “small batches”?
Small batches mean I create each product in limited quantities — generally no more than 25 at a time.
Working in small batches allows me to focus on quality and give every product the care and attention it deserves.
Nothing is rushed or mass-produced — each item is made and packed by hand.
Why five ingredients or less?
The five-ingredient philosophy began with my first product, The Ultimate Lips.
While searching for something that wouldn’t irritate my lips, I experimented with a simple formula using just five carefully chosen ingredients. It took 47 iterations to get it just right.
That’s when I realized simplicity was the foundation.
Since then, every formula has been created with five ingredients or less. Each one serves a purpose.
Less truly is more.
