Our Story
Detox. Repair. Protect.
Our Company is the first environmental skincare line based on the idea that whether your skin gets dry in desert climates or oily in tropical locals, it changes with your location. The place you live and where you travel affect your skin for better or worse.
We created Our Company because the same products you use in one location aren’t always the best in another. When your skincare needs change, your regime must too.
As you travel from the city to the suburbs or away for weekend excursions or vacations, your skin reacts to the changing atmosphere. Each geographic area has different skin stressors such as car exhaust, smoke, UV exposure, and blue light. That’s why Our Company offers customizable regimens that protect and enhance skin no matter where you go.
Our mission is to educate and provide effective and safe climate defense skincare products that detoxify, repair, and protect your skin from blue light, climate change, and pollution. Our Company’s naturally formulated products protect the skin and conquer the environmental assault that accelerates aging.
Made in the USA, our specially formulated cleansers, balancers moisturize and protect your skin from manufactured and natural climate irritants while supercharging your natural repair and healing. Our customizable product regimens clear toxins, protect against irritants and heal.
My Regimen Builder creates unique solutions specifically based on your skin’s environment. Discover your ideal regimen(s) today because where you live, work and travel are as crucial as your skin type.
Use My Regimen Builder to answer six questions and discover which products are the best fit for you and your surroundings. You can save regimens, subscribe to products, schedule deliveries, and even make payments with our partner, Afterpay.

Meet our founder – *Name removed
Hi, I’m Name, a single mom of three living in Los Angeles. I founded Our Company because I grew up in the Philippines, where the gentle weather and lack of pollution were Nirvana for my skin. Later, when I moved to the United States to attend college at The University of Southern California, my skin went berserk in all the wrong ways.
My skin was exposed to desert dryness, particulate pollution, indoor ozone from machines like air conditioners, and skin-damaging blue light from many new devices for the first time. In addition, I was still contending with intense UV light from the sun.
I didn’t realize the issues immediately, though. It wasn’t until I was sitting at a rooftop cafe in Rome, feeling grateful and admiring the incredible cityscape, when I rubbed my son’s face and noticed unusual dirt on his soft skin.
I looked around at the Coliseum and other ancient structures and could see the layers of accumulated sediment on the stone. Was this on my face, too?
Thinking back, I realized that each time I moved to a new city over the last ten years, my skin reacted poorly. I began to piece it together. It was the changing environmental irritants messing with my skin and requiring a change to my skincare routines. This is when Our Company was truly born.
I’m a trained attorney, so I started researching, worked as counsel for a major beauty company, and took cosmetic chemistry classes. I now knew the issues, but there weren’t any skincare lines that addressed environmental skincare stressors the way I needed.
Finally, I had an a-ha moment – exposure to new pollutions, dryness, ozone and blue light impact my skin as much as the skin type I was born with. Everyone sells me skincare solely based on my skin type, but my skin problems happened when my environmental surroundings changed. I needed skincare that adapted.
Eventually, I found skincare labs from Southern California to France, which helped us formulate Our Company. Now, we’re giving people a reliable way to adjust their routines for healthier skin that glows naturally.
Bottom line: We can’t escape the environmental irritants that accelerate skin aging, wreak havoc on our skin, and block the effectiveness of other skincare products. But, we can take the environment into account when choosing the right skincare products.
