Head of Research and Design for sustainable skincare using the MAYA Principle🍀. I bring experience from the energy and environmental sectors + extensive experiential research in skincare to create our products that bring alternatives to everyone who needs it the most.We truly identify as designers that focus on reactive skin. We have diverse backgrounds in science and analysis; however, our research is purely self-experiential. We use our years of experience and collected knowledge to unearth each ingredient and how it’s used, its benefits, where it comes from, its limitations, the hazards, and we analyze this information before we build and test the products on ourselves.Our process for testing involves using the products for 60 days on our reactive skin without any other products to interact with them. For us, this is the best, and most honest, way to know if a reaction will occur on our sensitive and reactive skin types. We couldn’t see a better or more dedicated approach to design than self-testing.COSM Research is a certified Cruelty-Free by the Leaping Bunny Program and adheres to the Leaping Bunny Corporate Standard of Compassion for Animals.
