“I feel like my skin is so super strong. And the stronger and more resilient my skin is, the better I feel about myself.”

has spent nearly two decades as an aesthetician and skincare expert helping people truly know their skin. A bestselling author and Vogue Business Top 100 Beauty Innovator, she is one of the most respected voices in the industry.
Her philosophy has always been the same. Skin is a living, breathing organ. What it needs will shift across every life stage. And real resilience isn’t just about what you put on top.

When Dija tried True Skin Alchemy, she was looking at it through that lens. The combination of ingredients. The way it works as a complete support system. The difference she felt after a month of taking it consistently. Sensitivity, irritation, texture. All kept in check.

This is a woman who has seen everything the skincare world has to offer. When she calls something exciting, it is worth paying attention to.

Trauma, they explain to , is what occurs when the system exceeds what it can carry, and the imprint of that stays in the nervous system long after the event itself has passed. Inflammation builds, recovery falls away, and the body keeps preparing for a danger that may no longer be there.

Their offering this week is how to come back to yourself after trauma.

Most of us think about skincare as something we apply.

Dr Jenna Macciochi, in our new Skin Expert Series, our immunologist and Director of Science & Innovation, explains why that’s only half the picture. In this interview she covers why the skin is one of the most immune-active areas in the body, how it acts as a real-time biomarker for your internal health, and what went into the formulation of True Skin Alchemy.

Your skin barrier works hard for you. Every single day.

It protects. It regulates. It adapts.

We spend so much on what we put on our skin. But what about what we put in?

Ahead of the launch of True Skin Alchemy, we brought together four leading experts for an honest conversation about what the skin barrier actually needs, and why inside-out support is the step most of us are missing.

, Immunologist, on why she built True Skin Alchemy around barrier function, not aesthetics.

, GP and Aesthetic Physician, on why internal hydration support may matter as much as anything you apply topically.

, Aesthetician and Skincare Expert, on the modern pressures silently working against your barrier every day.

, Makeup Artist and Beauty Expert, on what healthy skin actually looks like when you support it from within.

Four experts. One truth: your skin barrier needs support from within.

Your skin is one of the body’s most remarkable barriers. Three layers deep, home to its own microbial ecosystem, and working harder than ever against the pressures modern life places on it every single day.

Most skincare asks what skin needs to look better.
We asked a different question.

What does skin need to genuinely protect itself from within?

Two years of formulation. Seven clinically backed ingredients. Including Polypodium leucotomos; an ancient tropical fern that evolved its own complex antioxidant systems in response to intense UV exposure, and Vitamin C, which contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin and contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.

Because great skincare doesn’t stop at the surface.
