What Was It About Traditional Skincare that You Wanted to Disrupt?
I couldn’t find products that focused on the whole nutrition necessary to heal the skin. Instead, existing brands only concentrated on single star ingredients that were often formulated with other ingredients that irritated the skin, blocked absorption or actually “killed” the one-star ingredient.
When Are You at Your Most Creative?
At home and when travelling, when I’m speaking with people and customers.
What’s Your Biggest Distraction?
Constant interruptions.
What Does Success Look Like to You?
Everything working in unison and moving forward.
What Are Your Three Best Tips for Creativity?
Clearing your mind, jotting down ideas as they come, and performing white space activities (i.e. time in the garden, cooking, flower arranging).
