1h 10m · Bella Figura, The Tradition of Living Beautifully · 15 Mar 12:53

Shiva Rose was raised by bohemian parents in the countryside of Iran until the revolution occurred. Suddenly, a childhood nurtured on imagination and nature morphed into life as a refugee. Assimilating to a new life in America, she sought solace in old films, fashion and books, which led her to work as an actress in TV, film and theater. After having her first daughter in her early twenties she was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition, an occurrence that propelled her on a path as a naturalist and activist.

She is the author of Whole Beauty, Daily Rituals and Natural Recipes for Lifelong Beauty and Wellness. She is also the creator of The Local Rose, a line of all-natural beauty products created with the utmost respect for the natural world and for you.
