Meet Kimberly Crooks, an entrepreneur making waves in the $2B CBD industry. Crooks is on a mission to use the highly medicinal properties of CBD to nourish and heal her customers.  Her brand, Chill Mary, provides an affordable, sustainable, and conscious way for people of color and others to prioritize their wellness and self-care. 

“Life’s hard. Chill harder,” she quips on her website. An important reminder to us all during these challenging times. I connected with Crooks to hear more about the genesis of her brand and the healing properties of her products.

On her personal struggle with anxiety:

“Chill Mary was started out of my personal journey with mental health and wellness. After I graduated from college, I noticed that my anxiety and panic attacks weren't something to brush off. So, I started looking for ways to manage it. When I started researching and talking to my friends, I learned about CBD. CBD truly changed my life and helped me level-up my self-care practices. This ingredient's immensely positive impact on my life led me to Chill Mary.”

On who Chill Mary is for: 

“Chill Mary aims to encourage others like myself to prioritize their wellness. Chill Mary is here for CBD beginners and experts who would love to experience CBD in a sustainable and fresh way. Our products are multi-use, low-cost, effective, and aesthetically pleasing. Our skincare is also formulated to tackle stubborn issues that a lot of people of color face, one being hyper-pigmentation.”

On what’s ahead: 

“We are so happy to have started out with multi-purpose tinctures. However, we could not wait to share with everyone our newest Chill Mary goodies. We are so proud of the green, non-toxic, vegan, and clean skincare products that just launched this September. True to Chill Mary, they are natural and simplistic in ingredients, but effective. We launched a luxurious 300mg Full Spectrum CBD ‘Best Bud’ Facial Oil and a 150mg Full Spectrum CBD ‘Rose Bud’ Facial Toner. We also kept in mind everyone's pockets, so they can be the newest addition to a luxurious, but affordable self-care routine.”
