I’m Andrea Shriver, a lover of life who doesn’t shy away from big goals or wild ideas. My entrepreneurial journey began in the 90s when I made my first beeswax lip balm and invested everything I had to launch an organic body care line. That spark evolved into Eco Lips, a globally distributed brand that has been in business for more than 20 years.
Along the way, I fell in love with photography. Through my lens, I’ve captured people, stories, and the movement of light. I’ve traveled internationally with Frontier Coop as their professional photographer, documenting organic farmers, their sustainable practices, and the distillation of essential oils. From the vanilla fields of Madagascar to the lavender fields of France, I’ve seen firsthand the connection between land, people, and scent, and how fragrance has the power to transform a space and set the tone.
In my pursuit of big goals and wild ideas, I’ve also:
● Climbed Pico de Orizaba, an 18,491-foot active volcano and highest mountain in Mexico
● Trekked Manaslu Larke Pass in Nepal
● Cycled from Cedar Rapids, IA to Devil’s Lake, WI in just three days
● Competed in Core4, a 50-mile gravel bike race
● Earned a 200-hour yoga teacher certification
● Become a certified life coach
● Performed with an orchestra on violin
● Co-owner and currently manage Brewhemia, a coffee shop and catering company that’s become a sanctuary for conversation, art, and community
And yes, I’ve also been married for 28 years and have raised three incredible daughters.
Bebé Mango is my newest passion project. These candles are crafted with upcycled organic beeswax, one of the most eco-conscious ingredients nature offers. My hope is that they help set the vibe in your home, whether you light them to unwind or display them as conversation pieces at your next party. IYKYK.
