  • More Clean Sustainable Beauty

    I so deeply appreciate the points of view of you and your guest.

    More awareness, more education of chemical free, sustainable practices will always help.

    I’m many years in the beauty industry and could no longer work with others because of the chemicals.

    I had such brilliant training from chemists in the industry so I could understand hair from under the microscope because my job as an educator was sales. When my first daughter came along and had food sensitivities, this education really serve... more

  • Love this! Plant based colorants

    What a great podcast. Such an honest review of using botanicals in makeup. While listening to your chemist, I appreciate her knowledge and honesty in using plant pigments. It does give us me a realistic perspective of how to use plant pigments in makeup, where to get them, limitations with their uses, and experimentation steps during makeup creation.

  • Happy Anniversary

    As a relatively new student at Formula Botanica, the Diploma in Organic Skincare Formulation is something I truly didn’t expect it to be. I am astonished at the course content, the way it is organised and set up online, the access to so much information, ability to read their 400 detailed blogs, listen to podcasts. I thought I knew so much about skincare products, ingredients but I have had my eyes opened wide to be able to discover, research and use some ingredients I never had heard of. If any... more
