We can do better, science doesn’t have to be exciting and groundbreaking all the time. People are curious, it’s time for the media to stop treating us like we’re naive or stupid.

I curate a weekly update on the beauty and personal care industry, the #BeautyRecap.

I also write about beauty and science. I believe so many people are interested in science and chemistry, but just haven’t realized it yet!
