#023 After decades in the industry, Ron Robinson swore he would never launch a skincare line because it had all been done, until he discovered a breakthrough in Vitamin C formulation and Beauty Stat was born.
In this episode, I chat with cosmetic chemist Ron Robinson about his career journey and his experience working on popular skincare brands like Hailey Beiber's Rhode, Clinique, L'Oreal, and his own groundbreaking line, Beauty Stat. Ron chats with us all about his early days in the industry pre social media when market research was more like holding a clip board asking questions in the mall. We also chat about ingredients that were common place back then that brands avoid now, and the reason may not be what you think!
This convo delves into the science behind skincare ingredients such as peptides, collagen, Vitamin C and Ron provides valuable insights into their benefits and limitations. We also chat about Ron's brand BeautyStat, and its groundbreaking, patented vitamin C serum, the first stabilized 20% L-ascorbic acid serum to the market! An expert chemist, he also gives us recs for a well-rounded skincare routine.
