Lead by: Christen "Lizzie" Funderburk (she/her)
Christen Funderburk, the founder of Lizzie's All Natural Products, brings a deeply personal touch to the company. Her journey with eczema began at the age of 12, shaping her passion for creating effective skincare solutions. In 2014, while a college senior, Christen started making her own laundry detergent to combat the irritation caused by commercial products and from there, her brand was born. This initial success not only provided her relief but also sparked a realization about the broader need for natural skincare options. Christen’s vision and commitment to creating products free from harsh chemicals reflect her understanding of the needs of those with sensitive skin, making her a passionate advocate for natural skincare solutions.
