Has vitamin C finally met its match? In this week’s episode of Green Beauty Conversations, Lorraine Dallmeier, CEO of Formula Botanica, explores whether the beauty industry’s favourite antioxidant could soon be dethroned.

Lorraine is joined by Charlotte Julien, Formula Botanica graduate and founder of Edelweiss Creation (formerly known as éméo consulting, as referenced in the episode), who also worked with Swiss biotech pioneer Gaia Tech.

Together, Lorraine and Charlotte discuss hydroxytyrosol – a powerful, upcycled antioxidant extracted from olive waste that early studies show may outperform vitamin C in both potency and stability. Find out more about it now!
