After studying biochemistry at UC Berkeley, formulating clean beauty products at Biossance, and leading makeup marketing at L'Oréal, our founder Alanna Tran discovered the transformative power of biotechnology in creating beauty solutions that are both effective and sustainable.

Through her experimentation, she recognized a fundamental disconnect: the conflict between wearing makeup that harms the skin throughout the day and attempting to repair that damage with active skincare at night.

This insight sparked her vision for a new approach—one that seamlessly integrates makeup with health, offering products that enhance and nourish the skin.
