In this episode, I sit down with Kyle Landry, PhD, a scientist-turned-entrepreneur who’s bringing literal space-age technology to the skincare world.
As the President and Co-founder of Delavie Sciences, Kyle shares how a partnership with NASA led to the discovery of a one-of-a-kind extremophile—an organism found on the outside of the International Space Station—that now powers their cutting-edge skincare line. This isn’t just about beauty—it’s about real science, real function, and rethinking how we protect our skin from the environment.
What I found so refreshing about this conversation is Kyle’s commitment to truth, transparency, and rigor in a category often filled with hype. From product formulation to environmental defense, Delavie is creating skincare that’s built to perform and built to last. If you’ve ever wondered what happens when biotech meets beauty, this episode will blow your mind.
Here are a few key takeaways from the interview:
* How NASA, space research, and extremophiles led to a skincare breakthrough
* What makes the Bacillus lysate ingredient truly different, and clinically backed
* Why SPF and environmental exposure are only part of the skin damage story
* How Delavie is setting a new standard in cosmetic science and consumer trust
* The difference between making something marketable and making something that works
Join me, Ramon Vela, as we listen to the episode and explore how science, innovation, and skin health are coming together in a way the beauty industry has never seen before. This one’s for the curious, the skincare skeptics, and the science lovers.
