Our Founder

I am a consumer. I am just like you. I struggled for years with cystic acne and after countless visits to dermatologists and tons of money thrown into skincare products, I was left with minimal positive results. I realized I was just like millions of other women who had nowhere to turn. There were a lot of salespeople telling me, "This will REALLY work," and selling me a lot of products that, in the end, did nothing to help my severe acne and eczema. What was it going to take?

It was then that I realized my results were in the INGREDIENTS of the products I was using vs. what was being marketed to me. While working on commercial and music video sets as a professional makeup artist, as well as for a top luxury brand, I enrolled in a post-graduate program at UCLA & received a certificate in Cosmetic Chemistry.

From there, I learned the truth about what is truly best for the skin, and more importantly, what works and stays working. From this knowledge came SkinOwl, a skincare company that allowed men and women to feel as good as they looked. A trusted brand, wherein the products smell good, feel good, and leave you glowing inside and out due to their fast-acting results. In creating SkinOwl, I knew I wanted to achieve three main goals:

• I wanted people to see results overnight.
• I wanted to provide more than just skin care, but deliver a core component of total self-care too.
• I wanted people to feel like they had a safe haven to ask questions and receive quality advice about their skin in what can often be seen as a confusing industry.

I found that when I made the choice to care for myself on a small level, it opened the door to more impactful and authentic decisions & transformations. In the end, it's what led to me leave my job, launch my own skincare line, podcast, and dinner collective. 

SkinOwl's sole mission is to educate you about your skin & deliver the best products, so that skin "care" can be the catalyst to caring about every genuinely important facet of your life. And why not? Your happiness is worth all the world's weight in gold.

With love,
