'Shirlee has been involved with handmade skincare products from a very early age. For example, she has been helping her grandmother make her handmade face and body moisturiser. Since then she’s continued crafting handmade items of all different kinds – including soaps, lotions, scrubs, and other body care items. In the beginning, these have been for gifts or personal/family use, until she created a few years ago business entity for retail and wholesale distribution of her items. Shirlee is a NICNAS registered soap maker and has taught soapmaking and other crafts to small groups and individuals, commencing with SGSCC in 2017 as a soapmaking and body care products tutor.'
