About Us - A Journey from Pain to Healing
Nini Knows Best is more than a business—it’s a testament to resilience, love, and the pursuit of a better way. Our story began in 1994 when Leigh, an avid ice skater, suffered a devastating fall while attempting a new maneuver. What followed was an eight-year odyssey of misdiagnoses, ineffective treatments, and a medical system that could offer little more than increasingly potent painkillers. As the years passed, those prescribed medications lost their efficacy, leading to a dangerous dependency on stronger, even illicit, substances—an all-too-common fate for chronic pain sufferers.
Watching her daughter endure this cycle of pain and addiction, Nini refused to accept that this was the only way. Armed with relentless determination and a mother’s unwavering love, she embarked on a decade-long journey of research, formulation, and refinement. Her goal was clear: to create an alternative that was both powerful and safe, free from the chains of dependency that had once bound her daughter.
After ten years of meticulous development, the breakthrough came—a Cannabis Sativa Leaf Extract-infused cream that provided lasting relief without the risks of conventional painkillers. With its ability to ease severe pain, reduce inflammation, and nourish the skin, this formula became a lifeline not only for Leigh but for countless others seeking a natural, non-addictive solution. Today, Leigh is free from the substances that once held her captive, and together, she and Nini are on a mission to help others reclaim their lives from pain.

Each batch of products is independently tested to ensure it meets strict standards for purity, safety, and consistency before it reaches you.
Independent Laboratory Testing
Our products are analysed by an accredited, independent laboratory using validated testing methods. Samples are assessed exactly as supplied, ensuring results reflect the product you receive.
Cannabinoid Screening
Each batch is screened for naturally occurring cannabinoids to confirm:
• Non-psychoactive status
• Δ9-THC levels below laboratory quantification limits
• Consistent, trace cannabinoid presence only
This ensures our products are safe for everyday topical use and compliant with applicable cosmetic and consumer safety guidelines.
Microbiological Safety
To protect skin health and product integrity, we test for microbial contamination in line with recognised pharmacopoeial standards. This includes screening for:
• Bacteria
• Yeasts and moulds
• Common pathogenic microorganisms
All products must meet strict microbiological cleanliness requirements before release.
Heavy Metal Analysis
Our formulations are also tested for heavy metals, including:
• Lead
• Mercury
• Cadmium
• Arsenic
• Chromium
• Copper
This testing confirms that any naturally occurring trace elements remain well within accepted safety limits for topical products.
Batch-Specific Quality Control
Each production batch is:
• Individually identified
• Tested and recorded
• Released only once all quality and safety criteria are met
This allows full traceability and ongoing quality assurance.
