In this episode I'm joined by U Beauty founder Tina Chen Craig who lets us in on all her beauty secrets. Taking principles from her Asian culture, she educates us on how to harness these practices to achieve a healthier skin microbiome and a glowing complexion. From bone broth, selective cleansing, to immortal jellyfish treatments, this episode will challenge (for the better!) everything you thought you knew about skincare and beauty.

Simplified, technology-driven, and science-proven, U Beauty is a clean, multifunctional line designed to streamline your daily regimen for maximum benefit. Via SIREN Capsule Technology, U Beauty delivers superior skincare comprehensively and efficiently, without the likelihood of irritation. Instead of releasing powerful actives to the entire skin surface, U Beauty's SIRENS avoid impacting healthy skin by luring damage-causing free radicals like a magnet, visibly boosting the skin with strategic key ingredients.

U Beauty is the brainchild of Tina Chen Craig, the founder of Bag Snob and an established beauty and style authority. In creating U Beauty, Craig was simply propelled by a need to streamline her routine, optimize her skincare, and cut down on cosmetic confusion. She was motivated to make an impact. Today, this female-founded company boasts a team that possesses a unified mission: Create fewer-but better products that produce real results while minimizing time commitment and waste.

In addition to using recycled, recyclable, light-weight packaging and sustainable, non-toxic ingredients, U Beauty is leading the industry with multifunctional formulas designed to eliminate the need for many products. Their manufacturing facilities use 100% green energy and the brand and partnered with One Tree Planted, a non-profit dedicated to reforestation, to plant a tree for every U Beauty product sold.

A few of my favorite things we cover this episode:

• The confusion around the cosmetic industry, and her desire to move it forward (even in terms us sustainability).
• Ancient beauty rituals from the Asian culture and her desire to bring those rituals to the beauty industry.
• The secrets of the immortal jellyfish, and making a serum that mimics its properties.
