#053 In today’s episode I’m joined by Cosmetic Dermatology legend, best selling author and skincare icon Dr. Leslie Baumann, the expert that I received all my training under. Dr. Leslie Baumann is an absolute pioneer in the skincare world. Her work in cosmeceuticals and cosmetic dermatology paved the way for dermatologists and skin experts today. 

Dr. Baumann dedicates her time to helping people understand their Baumann Skin Type (of which there are 16!!!) which ultimately is the recipe for changing your skin. If you struggle with knowing which products to use, you will never have to give it a second thought again after this episode.
