Listen in as Montana unravels the myths both surrounding and perpetuated by the mainstream beauty industry.
"How we treat the plants and the bioavailability of them in their end source is really impacted by its journey from seed to skin. So rewilding the beauty industry for us is also about connecting to the origin story of the plant." - MONTANA LOWER
Hear where it all began—the origins of Montana's journey into the realm of beauty, forming our mission to embark on a transformative quest to rewild the beauty industry while finding our the eye-opening truths concealed and ingrained within the mainsteam beauty industry. Delving deeper, they dissect the ethical considerations inherent in crafting natural and sustainable beauty products, shedding light on the challenges encountered when bringing such products to market and helpful resources you can use to navigate green washing and clean washing in beauty products.
