My Skin Feels - Danielle Close


Listen Later

Today, we are swapping the confectionery aisle for the bathroom cabinet with a founder who is turning the entire skincare world on its head. I'm excited to introduce Danielle Close, founder of My Skin Feels - the award-winning brand that is turning food waste into feel-good skincare.

Danielle spent nearly 15 years in the beauty industry, including a formative role on the founding team of Charlotte Tilbury, where she saw first-hand just how unsustainable and confusing the industry had become, followed by 10 years as a creative consultant. The lightbulb moment came when she realised: if no one was going to change the industry so she had to prove it could be done.

Now, her products are created using the antioxidant-rich by-products from things like tomato ketchup, olive oil, and breakfast oats. This is rescued food that is not only kind to the planet but is showing incredible results on sensitive and eczema prone skin.

In this episode, we dive into how Danielle went from the high-glamour world of mega-brands to finding 'beauty in waste', the fascinating connection between intuition and entrepreneurship (yes, she is also a Professional Psychic Medium!), and how listening to your skin is the quickest way to listen to your entire self.

Grab your cleanser and enjoy.
