Clark's Botanicals was created by founder Francesco Clark and his father, a physician trained in both traditional Western medicine and homeopathy. Francesco Clark was working at Harper's Bazaar when he suffered a crippling spinal cord injury that left him unable to walk or sweat. His condition led to clogged pores and constant breakouts. When neither over-the-counter nor prescription skin care worked to clear up Francesco's skin, Clark's Botanicals was born.

Today, all Clark's Botanical products feature Jasmine Absolute, a precious essential oil that naturally rebalances skin. Derived from nocturnally-blooming flowers, this extract is also antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and immuno-stimulating. It works to calm and heal a broad spectrum of skin types, from young to mature, oily to dry, and normal to sensitive.

Francesco Clark serves as a National Ambassador for the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation, which is dedicated to curing spinal cord injury by funding innovative research and improving quality of life for people living with paralysis through grants, information and advocacy.  A percentage of profits from the sale of Clark's Botanicsls products goes to The Reeve Foundation.
