Anna Hydratia is the “Chief” from BabeAuNaturel.com, a site I like to buy beauty stuff from on occasion. I’ve gone ahead and interviewed her for fun, and she agreed. I’ve used AH to refer to Anna Hydratia, and AM to refer to Anonymeows.
AM: Anna, thank you for agreeing to do this interview today. I’d like this to be informal, but I do want to get down to the nitty gritty of it.
AH: Thank you for interviewing me, I’m very happy to do this. What would you like to know?
AM: I noticed that your brandname is Babe Au Naturel, yet your site appears to have some eyeshadow, which is makeup. Why is that?
AH: At Babe Au Naturel, we understand that being natural means different things to different people. Although we would love for people not to wear make-up, we don’t think that this is realistic. For this reason, we have included one item of natural make-up.
AM: Do you think your products genuinely help people?
AH: Yes. I would not be selling anything on Babe Au Naturel that doesn’t help people. In fact, we’ve changed our product range significantly to specialize in the most useful and best value products for our customers.
AM: What’s your best product to date?
AH: All of our products are great! Some of our more popular products are the Handmade Skin Brightening Soap and the Bamboo Charcoal Facial Soap. We’ve since also created a package called the Natural Beauty Skin Brightening Kit to help our customers get a great package deal on these (and more).
AM: Skin Brightening? I usually buy your make-up and make-up brushes!!!
AH: We have many multicultural customers with many variants of different skin types. It’s a sensitive issue, but some people like the idea of being able to brighten their skin and our products are one of the ways in which can contribute to that effect. We do not endorse using harsh chemicals on one’s skin, and that’s why we have two soaps – one for face (bamboo charcoal) and one for body (natural active crystals).
AM: Do you have anything that does the opposite? I’m super pale and would love to get a tan, maybe be a little less bright in the sun.
AH: Not yet, but we are working on finding something safe and suitable. For now, please do yourself a favour and stay out of the sun. Please also use sunscreen and a hat.
AM: Thanks for that. By the way, I logged onto Babe Au Naturel yesterday and noticed that there seems to be a sale of some kind. Could you please tell me some more about that?
AH: Certainly! We do site-wide sales from time-to-time. We’re trying to cater to as many customers as we possibly can, and having sales helps us achieve this. We want to serve as many people as possible, because we want people to know that skincare doesn’t have to be harsh on your skin. You can use handmade gentle soaps. You don’t have to buy $500 eyeshadow for it to be beautiful. You can use natural aloe vera lip balm and have a beautiful, natural lip color.
AM: That all sounds great. Well thank you so much for your time today, we loved chatting to you. Kudos.
AH: Thanks so much for the opportunity. Bye for now!
