TheFadLab – the science behind current beauty.
A digestible guide to understanding what ingredients are in your beauty products and – more importantly – what they’re doing for your skin
The Author.
Hi! My name is Grace and I am a university student studying Biomedical Sciences and Marketing. Like many 21-year-olds, I have no clue what I want to do with my life career-wise when I graduate in a few short months (eek).
What I do know is that I love writing, have a huge passion for beauty & skincare, and I’ve learned some pretty cool science stuff over the last 3.5 years that has helped me understand that chemical reactions are everywhere, even in my beauty products.
From what I’ve gathered through family & friends, most people nowadays have a general understanding that products have ingredients and that some ingredients are good while others are not so good. Where the awareness ends is pretty much where the more complex science stuff starts. That’s where I can help!
To be honest – even though it might sound kind of nerdy – I enjoy researching different ingredients and learning how they interact both with my skin and with other ingredients I might be using. The good news is – you get to learn without actually having to do much work (besides reading this blog, of course!).
I am by no means claiming to be the all-knowing beauty ingredients girl, but I can give you some insight that might help make those important beauty decisions that you really don’t want to spend time looking into. Don’t just trust me with your skin, trust my very reliable, peer-reviewed references! 🙂
