E.406: Meet Skincare’s Newest Star Chemist and Her Line, EDUCATED MESS Skincare

Let’s Chat “I am so excited to introduce you guys to someone I truly consider to be a rising star in the skincare realm. She is educated and one of the most NON-MESSY scientists when it comes to her knowledge and dedication. Absolutely obsessed. Also her line is phenomenal which doesn’t hurt !” - Dr Ekta“I'm a cosmetic formulation chemist who, after years of product development for tons of other brands, quit my job to start a skincare line called Educated Mess. While working in formulation, I was always fascinated to learn about new ingredient technologies and delivery systems, but found it frustrating that the brands I was working with seemed to care more about marketing buzzwords than product efficacy- there was such a disconnect between the chemist and the consumer. Together with my business partner Catherine, we started Educated Mess and hope to provide top notch products while bridging the marketing gap that seems to exist throughout the beauty industry. No BS, no marketing fluff and greenwashing- just real, science-backed ingredients and formulas. In my efforts to spread the word about Educated Mess via TikTok, I found another skincare-related passion in helping others interpret ingredient lists and make informed decisions when buying skincare products, and that's been even more fun than I could have expected. I hope to continue to help others better understand skincare without overcomplicating things the way that the internet has allowed for too long.”Alex Padgett, Founder of EDUCATED MESS--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/skincareanarchy/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/skincareanarchy/support Support the Show.
