In this episode of Skin Anarchy, host Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with the iconic Patrick Starrr—beauty mogul, influencer, and founder of ONE/SIZE—for an unfiltered conversation on how empathy, innovation, and identity can redefine what beauty means today. Patrick opens up about his transition from top-tier influencer to brand founder to licensed esthetician, sharing how a desire for true efficacy and skin knowledge drove him back to school, even while leading a growing brand.

Listeners will get a behind-the-scenes look at how Patrick’s emotional connection to beauty shaped every detail of ONE/SIZE—from inclusive design to high-performance products built for real skin needs. He shares the brand’s powerful origin story and the deeper mission behind it: to serve the overlooked, celebrate individuality, and build with intention.

You’ll also hear about his SPF breakthrough, “On ‘Til Dawn,” and how he cracked the code to deliver sun protection that works over makeup—without compromising wear or texture. Throughout the conversation, Patrick’s passion for storytelling, education, and community shines through. His perspective on beauty as a form of communication—and empathy as a business model—offers valuable lessons for founders, creatives, and beauty lovers alike.

Tune in to hear how Patrick Starrr is rewriting the rules of beauty, from science-backed SPF to emotional entrepreneurship—only on Skin Anarchy.
