About


Our Mission

Take Care is a holistic spa and retailer of natural skincare, beauty and wellness brands. We passionately believe that our daily routines offer the ideal opportunity to slow down and participate in moments of calm and revitalization that we all need in order to be our most beautiful and compassionate selves. To that end, it is our mission to offer a space that invites you to meet your skin and self-care needs with effective and thoughtfully crafted organic, natural and plant-based products for face, body and mind. From luxurious facial masks to aromatherapy tools, we endeavor to offer you goods that allow you to be fully immersed in your personal care routine moments.

The products we carry are some of the most respected in the natural skincare community. With an emphasis on botanicals, the overwhelming majority of skin, hair and body care products are vegan. Our cosmetics are the highest performing in the non-toxic category and range from ultra minimalist formulas to advanced fusions of skincare + makeup. Products are free of synthetic fragrance and responsibly but minimally preserved (preservatives are crucial to maintaining product safety, but we permit only the gentlest ones). Most importantly, our products are thoughtfully crafted by brands that deeply care about the integrity, innovation and performance of their goods.

About the founder, Becky Waddell

Becky Waddell

Becky is the founder and curator behind Take Care, an online destination for thoughtfully selected organic, plant-based and high-performing skincare, beauty and wellness essentials. With a deep appreciation for holistic skincare, ingredient integrity and ritual-based self care, she created Take Care as a space to discover small-batch brands that support both skin health and everyday wellbeing.

Originally founded as a neighborhood shop and skincare destination in Washington, DC, Take Care has since evolved into an online-only store serving a broader community seeking intentional, effective and beautifully crafted products. Becky’s approach to skincare is rooted in the belief that caring for skin should feel grounding, approachable and deeply personal, blending results-driven formulations with daily rituals that support overall wellbeing.

Drawing from years of experience in clean beauty and product curation, Becky personally selects every brand carried at Take Care with a focus on transparency, thoughtful sourcing, botanical innovation and sensorial experience. The collection reflects a balance of efficacy and simplicity, bringing together products designed to nourish skin, support self care and encourage a slower, more mindful approach to beauty.
