A Mum, A Mission, and a Bottle That Changed Everything

​

Welcome to The Liceorator, where we understand the challenges of dealing with persistant headlice infestations. 

 

The Liceorator began in 2014, not in a lab, but in a home — when Kellie Crowhurst, living in Townsville at the time and mum to three school age girls, faced a very real and frustrating problem: head lice that just wouldn’t quit.. and ineffective and expensive chemical treatment options.

 

Kellie  talked amongst other parents at the school and they were saying the same thing..

With a commitment to finding a reliable solution, Kellie transformed her journey into a quest for knowledge, She wasn’t a head lice expert.— But decided she would become one.

.

” I felt like i was on a mission for all parents.and Kids" she said.

​

Bringing The Liceorator to life meant learning everything she could about essential oil safety. Kellie reached out to experts like Robert Tisserand and Clinical Aromatherapist Lea Jacobson of the USA to ensure that every choice was backed by care and science. Kellie then went on to become an Essential Oil Safety Advisor, creating many of her own recipes

.

Gaining input from her own daughters, parents at the school and local indigenous commmunity members.

​What followed was 3 years of development, real-life testing, and a commitment to families who needed relief without compromise.

​
