For decades, green beauty has leaned heavily on one simple belief – if an ingredient comes from a plant, it must be better. Better for the skin, better for the planet and better for people. But what happens when that comforting narrative starts to unravel? In this episode of Green Beauty Conversations, Formula Botanica CEO Lorraine Dallmeier explores the deeper story behind fermentation and asks a provocative question: could microbes help reshape the future of the beauty industry? If you're interested in beauty and where its future might lie, this episode is for you. Tune in now!
