Â
It all started with a trip to Mexico in September of 2016 where best friends Jessica and Riley embarked on a backpacking trip across Central and South America which would change their lives forever.
Jessica and Riley were two passionate and vibrant second year university students when they decided to use their Spring Break to take the trip of a lifetime. The two decided to travel and explore Mexico in order to see some of the sites which were discussed in their Spanish History class. For two girls from Florida, this was the experience of a lifetime and the two didn’t really know what to expect.
Upon landing in Mexico, the two noticed that there was a drastic change in climate. The tropical humidity of Florida was no longer and the heat of the Mexican desert was apparent. Despite this the two travelled through Mexico City, Mexico and visited beautiful historic sites such as the Frida Kahlo Museum. Diving into Aztec culture the two also participated in various historical tours such as a trip to Teotihuacan and visiting the Guadalupe Shrine.
As the trip progressed, Jessica noticed that she had continuously had nosebleeds in the night and was wondering if something was wrong. After consulting with her mother on the phone, she visited an on-site doctor which was at her hotel and told him the problem. He explained that Mexico’s dry climate causes many individuals to have this problem and suggested for her to use a humidifier. “A humidifier?” she questioned, “I thought those were just for spas and facial treatments!”. The doctor explained that this was a common misconception but that in reality humidifiers are an excellent addition to one’s living space in order to improve breathing capability and release moisture into dry spaces.
Jessica and Riley headed to a local store and picked up a humidifier. They noticed that the selection wasn’t very vast and they were not very attractive, but she selected one in order to ease her nosebleeds for the remainder of her trip.
After a long and amazing trip, Jessica and Riley returned home. Upon unpacking, Jessica found her humidifier and thought to herself, “Hmmm, I wonder if everyone knows how beneficial these are?”. She started with her family and asked who had a humidifier, the answer was no-one. She extended her search to her friends, and still no-one had one. She thought that there had to be a way to promote the benefit and use of humidifiers in the home while making them look more stylish and attractive, and so, Humiii was born!
Jessica and her best friend Riley worked tirelessly to create Humiii and bring modern and chic designs to humidifiers in order to promote use.
Since 2017 the company has grown and expanded, but the original vision of all users to breathe moist and clean air comfortably in their homes has remained. Jessica and Riley recognize the vast need for this product and are expanding their design selection regularly to ensure that everyone can find the perfect humidifier for them.
