In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta is joined by Ewelina Aiossa, founder of Topical Skin, to explore a new category she calls “clean dermaceuticals.” With over 15 years of experience at powerhouse brands like L'Oréal, SkinCeuticals, and Avene, Ewelina brings a unique blend of corporate expertise and indie innovation to her own line — one that’s redefining ingredient integrity and reshaping the future of skin health.
Ewelina breaks down what makes “clean dermaceuticals” different, emphasizing that it’s not just about what formulas leave out, but about the sourcing, synergy, and clinical validation of every ingredient. From Ayurvedic and traditional medicine inspirations to modern delivery systems, she explains how Topical Skin balances heritage remedies with cutting-edge biotech for results-driven skincare.
Listeners will also learn how Ewelina applies the principles of biohacking to skin longevity — creating barrier-supporting, antioxidant-rich formulas designed to keep skin healthy, hydrated, and resilient against modern stressors. A standout innovation is her use of oleosomes, nutrient-rich oil bodies that act as natural slow-release systems for hydration and stability, bridging nature with clinical science.
From exosome defense oils that shield against pollution and blue light to a superfood-inspired eye cream loved by makeup artists, Topical Skin is proving that clean beauty and derm-grade performance don’t have to be mutually exclusive.
This episode is a sneak peek into a skincare philosophy that’s about more than trends — it’s about building timeless, high-integrity formulations for those who demand both safety and results. Tune in to discover how Topical Skin is setting a new standard in clean dermaceuticals.
