Revolutionizing Skincare with Food for Skin feat. Angela Ursem

Описание: Angela Ursem, co-founder of Food for Skin (http://www.foodforskin.com) , joins That's Derm Good! to discuss how a personal search for truly sustainable skincare led to a purpose-driven brand built on trust, transparency, and intention. Angela shares that her frustration with greenwashing and confusing ingredient lists led her into the skincare industry, where she is determined to create products that don’t require consumers to become chemists just to feel confident about what they're putting on their skin.

At the heart of Food for Skin is a commitment to taking that research burden off the customer by prioritizing safe, thoughtfully sourced ingredients and clear, honest communication. The conversation dives into what sustainability really means in skincare: from responsible packaging choices to sourcing ingredients ethically and creatively, including the use of food-industry byproducts that would otherwise go to waste. Angela explains the brand’s “less is more” philosophy, which favors high-quality, multifunctional products over overcrowded routines, and reflects a belief that skincare should be simple, effective, and respectful of both skin and planet. 



Education also plays a central role, as Angela emphasizes empowering consumers to better understand ingredients while still offering products they can trust without overthinking. She discusses the brand’s firm stance against harmful ingredients and microplastics, and how ongoing customer feedback actively shapes product development. Looking ahead, Angela Ursem shares her vision for Food for Skin's future, including expanding the product line and entering new markets, while staying grounded in the values that sparked the journey.
