Katie and Cris discuss the importance of ingredient quality in skincare with Lindsay Nahmiache, CEO of Veriphy Skincare.

Katie and Cris sit down with Lindsay Nahmiache, CEO of Veriphy Skincare, a Canadian-founded, science-backed brand born out of research at the University of Guelph. In this episode, they get into why ingredient quality matters more than marketing hype, how to spot a white-labelled skincare product, and why less is genuinely more when it comes to your skin. Lindsay also shares what makes Canadian skincare standards different, why fragrance is a hormone disruptor you'll want to ditch, and how the skincare industry is finally starting to shift toward science and simplicity. In This Episode We Cover What photoglycogen (phytospherics) is and why it's a game-changing hydration ingredient. The problem with celebrity and influencer skincare brands and what to watch out for. Why layering too many active ingredients can actually damage your skin. How Canadian skincare regulations hold brands to a higher standard than the US. The skin minimalism trend and why your skin doesn't need 15 steps. What to look for when choosing a clean, effective skincare product.
