It All Started with a Touch...
Before Taboodoir was a brand, it was a moment.
A bath bar, handmade with loveโan unexpected act of devotion from my husband and daughter during a time I desperately needed softness.
It wasnโt just a gift. It was a spark. A reminder that even the most ordinary rituals can become extraordinary when intention, care, and just a hint of sensual rebellion are involved.
That single touch lit the flame that would become Taboodoirโa self-care sanctuary for anyone who dares to indulge deeply, love boldly, and rebel beautifully.
What began as a heart-shaped bar of bliss is now a full-blown invitation:
Come Play. Come Pamper. Come Awaken.
Born From Ritual. Built on Love.
I didnโt set out to start a skincare brand.
I set out to reclaim myself.
The spark came from a giftโa heart-shaped bath bar crafted with love by my husband and daughter, during a time I was struggling to feel whole. That small act of care, of sensory escape, reignited something in me. It reminded me that self-care is never selfishโitโs sacred.
At the same time, my corporate career came to a screeching halt thanks to the chaos of 2020. I was left asking, โWhat now?โ
The answer was waiting in my own bathtub: a fusion of science, sensuality, and soul. I began to pour my passion into researching natural ingredients, obsessing over textures, aromas, and efficacyโjust like I had years ago in the lab. My husband, David, handled the logistics and tech like a pro, while I conjured up our first formulas. We were the perfect team.
But just as Taboodoir was preparing to launch, the unthinkable happened. Davidโmy partner in life and in this dreamโpassed away unexpectedly.
The world stopped. I almost did too.
But in the silence, his voice still echoed:
โPut some taboo on you.โ โฅ
So I did.
Taboodoir became more than a business. It became a love letterโto David, to transformation, to every woman rediscovering her spark. His fingerprints are still on everything: the name, the vision, the fearless audacity behind it all.
Every product I craft carries both scientific precision and emotional intention. This is skincare that dares to seduce, to soothe, and to stir something deep within.
This isnโt just my story. Itโs yours tooโif youโre ready to turn your rituals into revelations.
Crafted by Nanette โ with Love, Loss, and a Little Rebellion
David, my co-creator in lifeโand the soul behind every spark.
Before I became the founder of Taboodoir, I was the girl in the labโtweezing termites under a microscope and studying the molecular structure of orange oil.
I didnโt just play scientist. I was one. An award-winning, BBC-interviewed, Clinton-meeting, science-fair-dominating teenage prodigy obsessed with natural solutions long before โclean beautyโ was a thing.
Fast-forward past a 15-year detour in software sales, motherhood, and a pandemic that flipped everything upside downโand I found myself right back where I started: in a lab. But this time, I was formulating body soufflรฉs instead of botanical pesticides.
Taboodoir was born from grief, passion, and the need to create something sensual, beautiful, and rebellious. Every ingredient is chosen with intention. Every texture is tested until it melts just right. Every scent is designed to stir something in you.
Because self-care should never be sterile. It should be sacred.
And maybe...just maybe...a little sinful!
I didnโt pivot. I came full circle โ and I brought body butter.

We craft for feeling.
