Quotes:

“I realized that I wanted to get this message out to more people about the skin and its connection with health and how we can actually look at our skin as a tool rather than just what can we do to cover it up and suppress it.” (9:05)

“It’s really up to us to pay attention to what we are putting on our skin” (23:36)

“I started asking different estheticians and dermatologists I knew ‘what are the good natural skin care lines?’ and the answer they gave me really bothered me, which was you have to choose between natural or effective when it comes to skincare. Natural skin care products just don’t work. And I thought well that’s ridiculous.” (30:41)

“That was what I realized was missing in a lot of the natural skin care lines, is that they would have a lot of empty ingredients. And maybe they weren’t toxic but they weren’t the ones that were actually going to improve the quality of the skin. (31:38)
