Where it all Started...


Natural Ingredient Vibes (NiV) Living was formed by three women focused on handmade body care. We are children of God with a simple philosophy: We believe in thoughtfully chosen ingredients, made with care. Our Mission is to be the answer...the solution...and the final destination to your search for skin and hair care greatness! 

Toddale Smith


 All hail to the Chemist... The Vibe... The Creator and Founder of NiV! Born in Chicago, raised in Minneapolis, Toddale is a massive explosion concealed in a tiny package! At a very young age she knew she was destined to be an Entrepreneur but was unsure of the direction. As she went through life educating herself on the benefits of an ingredient-conscious lifestyle, she learned that there are a number of people unaware of how many ingredients they come into contact with every day. This knowledge sparked Toddale's passion for creating skin and hair care products that she could provide to her community - giving all praise to Jesus Christ.
That was the birth of NiV Living...
Toddale studied Visual Communications and Marketing at Chicago State University. Her professional experience is in Sales and Project Management. She has a strong passion for music/arts and entertainment. If you ever need a singer for your event - you just found one! When she's not singing (and sometimes even when she is) she's traveling or spending quality time with family and friends! Toddale has one objective - to provide thoughtfully made, small-batch products to as many people as she can, by making NiV Living a strong household name!
Because YOU deserve it!



 

Nikki Faulkner
Our Jill of all trades! Born in Minnesota and now living in Dallas, TX, Nikki's unmatched drive keeps the team on their toes. She holds a Bachelor's degree in Business Management, knows what it takes to run a business committed to helping others, and brings experience in Operations, Risk, Compliance and Finance. Sensitive to almost everything under the sun, Nikki started choosing more carefully over a decade ago, beginning with her diet, then her body care and beauty products, and eventually her household items (because why buy organic food just to cook it in questionable cookware, right?!). Today, Nikki is all things organic, gluten-free, and yes, pescatarian. She has a passion for culture, travel, youth development, and healthy living, and lives by her mantra: "happiness is your birthright!" Together with Pilar's pharmacy experience and Toddale's gift for crafting the perfect recipes, Nikki helps make sure NiV can confidently stand behind every product we make for the NiV family. What Nikki says goes, and Nikki says, treat your skin to something handmade - Go NiV!
