Time for some Q & A!
You may have been asking yourself...
Q: Why are you called Jonquil Beauty?
A: Mike, the Founder and President of the company, and his girlfriend Lissa, came up with the name of the company when they were living in the city of Smyrna, GA.
You also may not know that Smyrna is the Jonquil City.
"What is a Jonquil?
It's a flower. A fragrant short-tubed, yellow flower with long narrow leaves that blooms in great quantities in Smyrna in the Spring.
And, why is Smyrna called the Jonquil City?
According to the Smyrna Historical Society, the Jonquils were introduced to Smyrna by Samuel Taylor and his wife who moved to Smyrna from Atlanta in 1883. The Taylors purchased 80 acres of land on Atlanta Road south of the intersection with Collier Road.
The Taylors had a son who lived in Spokane, Washington. He sent his parents a burlap sack from Spokane with what are believed to be the area's first Jonquil bulbs. The Taylors shared the bulbs with friends and neighbors. The flowers quickly multiplied and came back every year with very little care. Thus began the tradition of planting jonquils in Smyrna. The Taylor home is preserved as the Taylor-Brawner House and is part of the Taylor-Brawner Park property.
A more detailed account of why Smyrna is known as the Jonquil City may be found on the https://smyrnahistoricalsociety.org/ website."

Q: Why are you focusing on Clean Beauty?
A: As a recent brain tumor survivor, Lissa personally focused on finding healthier solutions for nails, skin care, hair care, and her overall well-being, and through that journey, she began her quest for finding Clean Beauty and less toxic ways of daily living.
This website is a result of her continued research and as she finds Clean Beauty and Grooming brands that resonate with her and that she truly believes in and loves, we will let you know about them! You may see from time to time that we throw in a find that is something comforting to her during her continued rehabilitation, such as interior home decor, including blankets and candles or inspirational quotes and even art!
