Skin Anarchy

Send us Fan MailLet’s ChatSSD’s love of skincare grew out of her frustration with her own skin. After high school, her occasional flare ups became constant. including consistent cystic acne. Throughout college and as she entered a career in public relations and fashion. Sahar knew she had to get this under control because it wasn’t just affecting her skin, her confidence and mental strength were also being affected. Seeking the guidance of aestheticians and dermatologists alike, her education in skincare really began. After understanding that our skin can be a reflection of what’s going on internally, SSD sought out skin products with proven efficacy to enhance her skin’s texture and purity. Products that would calm The redness and inflammation, actively fight breakouts an hydrate the skin. That Experience lead to SSD to emerge her passions for skincare with mental health awareness. As an avid advocate for mental health coalition, her desire is for more people to embrace the fact that happiness is an inside job. Happy skin, Happy Within is not just a tag line - it is a mantra she lives by, but it takes work and community. The development of Sundree is a natural progression in its journey. An entrepreneur and true GLOW-getter at heart, SSD has founded multiple successful companies, most notable, laChambre Public Relations. Building branch through strategic VIP placement and media relations over the last 15 years, SSD has worked with some of the worlds most recognizable brands, including Aritzia, Kenneth Cole, Keds, New Balance, Swarovski, Elie Saab, Charlotte Olympia, and many more.

That’s why she launch INCUBATE, pro bono program that supports emerging designers and beauty entrepreneurs within the BIPOC community. SSD is also a founding member of I am a voter., a nonpartisan movement that aims to create a cultural shifty around voting and civic engagement. SVN is a skincare junkie at heart whose obsession with all things skin started at a very early age. As a young girl, SVN watched her mom apply her skincare products gently with ease, always marking the importance of taking care of skin and having a committed routine to follow. As SVN embarked on the world of being a teenager, she was continuously reminded to wash her face nightly and to apply sunscreen regularly. This is where SVN’s love of skincare began. After graduating from the USC Marshall School of Business, Sahar attended and graduated law school. As important as her education was to her, deep down, Sahar knew she was meant to answer a higher calling - creating her own brand. She thought to herself, ‘What better field to venture into than the one I’ve been a part of since I was a girl - skincare!’ While pregnant, SVN was wary of the potentially toxic and impossible-to-pronounce ingredients in most of her skincare lineup. She also recognized that her seven-step routine was just way too complicated with the number of new responsibilities on her plate. But when she looked for a brand that was clean, simple, effective and affordable, she couldn’t find one. Realizing that skincare doesn’t need to be this complex, she began her journey to simplify skincare with the belief that less is more. Wanting only the best for herself, and women everywhere, she joined forces with SSD to bring Sundree to life.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/skincareanarchy/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/skincareanarchy/supportSupport the show

Send us Fan MailLet’s ChatA moment of inspiration started a movement in the world of hair and body care. That moment happened when Carmen Tal discovered the transformative power of argan oil, beginning her journey to become the creative visionary behind the international, multi-category beauty brand Moroccanoil.While living in Montreal, she received a bad color process that left her hair severely damaged. “I was visiting Tel Aviv soon after this bad experience when I discovered what the Moroccanoil Treatment is today. I was at a local salon when a stylist applied an astonishing argan oil-infused treatment to my hair,” she says. The oil-infused treatment was different from any product she had ever tried before— and as a salon owner, she had tried many. “I saw the results instantly: My hair became shiny, smooth and manageable.”Carmen knew right away that this argan oil treatment was special, and she wanted to share it with other women. At the time, oil treatments were practically unheard of in the industry. “Everyone told us it was a flawed plan, that the market was too saturated with products,” she recalls.But her experience—as a hair salon owner, an executive in the fashion industry and a working mother— gave her a keen instinct for what other women would love. “With the demands of home and work life, finding products that are easy to use and make adventurous styling simple is a priority,” she says. The result was the now-famous original Moroccanoil Treatment. Her pivotal moment of inspiration revolutionized the beauty industry, creating an all-new oil-infused hair care category and an iconic brand in less than a decade.Today Moroccanoil remains the leader in oil-infused beauty, offering a complete line of hair care and styling products, as well as Moroccanoil BodyTM and Moroccanoil SunTM, in more than 65 countries and counting. Moroccanoil products are also used by top stylists for high-profile magazine shoots, fashion shows around the globe and awards shows like the Oscars and the Grammys.As Moroccanoil has grown into an international lifestyle brand, Carmen has remained a passionate, hands-on leader. Her vision forms the core of the brand’s DNA, from the unmistakable turquoise packaging to the exotic signature fragrance. “The Mediterranean is the root of my ideas,” she says. “The colors of the ocean, the clothes people wear, the fragrances in the air all inspire my vision for the brand.”With the launch of the Moroccanoil BodyTM and Moroccanoil SunTM collections, the brand now offers a complete head-to-toe lifestyle experience. “The body lineup is inspired by life’s pleasures—an exhilarating, experiential and sensorial journey through the Mediterranean—with products that not only refresh and rejuvenate the skin, but also provide well-being to the mind and senses.”--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/skincareanarchy/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/skincareanarchy/supportSupport the Show.Follow The Show On All Socials Using The Tag @skincareanarchy Hosted on Acast.

Send us Fan MailLet’s ChatWith deep rooted beauty beginnings, Lan Belinky was destined to lead a global skincare brand. Born and raised until her young teens in Japan, the infamous center of skin care innovation, Lan was fascinated by the infinite beauty trends and tactics she was continually exposed to. Mesmerized by her Grandmother's meticulous 6-step beauty ritual and her Aunt's unique product application practices; the allure of the beauty world naturally beckoned.In the Spring of 1996, Lan's family moved to the United States so her Father and boscia Founder, Gen Inomata, could realize his dream of bringing Japanese influenced skincare stateside. Lan spoke solely Japanese at the time and worked diligently to learn English as a second language and acclimate into the American culture that was so brand new to her – but always, always held close her Japanese roots.Fast-forward a few years later, Gen's dream was realized and boscia was born. Lan attended The University of the Incarnate Word and graduated with a degree in Business Marketing, while spending every available moment helping to cultivate boscia. After graduating, Lan joined boscia full-time and helped lead many of the brand's major milestones including the first foray into prestige retail. Lan passionately believed in the power of boscia's fusion of botanical (BŌ) science (SHA), and that powerful skincare results could in fact be obtained from good-for-you ingredients. Lan attributes much of her contributions to boscia's growth directly to her biculturality. boscia's first collections (Tsubaki, Sake and Charcoal) were all inspired by her Japanese heritage as was BB Cream, which was the first of its kind to hit the US prestige retail market and garnered staggering success. In the Summer of 2010, Lan unearthed the Luminizing Black Charcoal Mask which catapulted to skincare fame and created the instantly gratifying peel-off mask craze. The Luminizing Black Charcoal Mask continues to reign as a boscia fan-favorite.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/skincareanarchy/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/skincareanarchy/supportSupport the Show.Follow The Show On All Socials Using The Tag @skincareanarchy Hosted on Acast.
