With all of the noise on social media, it can be tricky to figure out what's right for your body and skin type. That's why I'm excited to share my chat with Monique Meneses, the founder of iota, a body care brand that uses prebiotics and postbiotics to promote skin health. She's an absolute skincare expert with so much wisdom to share about caring for your unique skin type.
In our conversation, Monique explains the science behind skin microbiomes, why using clean ingredients in personal care products is essential, and how to be more mindful about what you put on your skin. We also talk about how your skin connects to your overall health and why understanding ingredient lists can help you make conscious choices.
If you're interested in beauty, skincare, or if you've struggled with skin issues like eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, or acne, this episode is a must-listen.
