Dear beauty enthusiast,

Makeup should make your skin look better — not worse. Yet too often, traditional cosmetics clog pores, disrupt the skin barrier, and undo the benefits of your skincare routine.

As a makeup lover who struggles with acne, I knew there had to be a better way.

Rooted in the biotech innovation hub of the Bay Area, I combined my scientific training from UC Berkeley with hands-on experience formulating clean skincare at Biossance and makeup at L’Oréal. This blend showed me how biotechnology can drive a new generation of beauty products that deliver both powerful results and true sustainability.

After years of research and experimentation, I created a new approach: patent-pending makeup powered by biotech, designed to support your skin barrier and microbiome — not compromise them.

BiotechBeauty was born to bridge the gap between makeup and skincare, proving that beauty can be both transformative and skin-friendly.

With love,

Alanna Tran
