Skin care has always played an important role in my life, whether I wanted it to or not. A combination of poor skin care hygiene and genetics left me with deep acne scars throughout my early 20’s. Like many women, it was difficult for me to feel comfortable in my own skin when I’m constantly being shown seemingly beautiful but filtered photos on social media. I dreamt about having perfect skin that was glossy, smooth, and scar-free because that defined beauty for me. I even went as far as spending hundreds of dollars on skin care laser treatments and products only to be left disappointed when I discovered those solutions are just over-the-surface and temporary. I believe that your skin is the foundation to your confidence. Once you choose to take care of the skin you’re born with, you’ll find that skin care is a beautiful journey that isn’t out of reach. I started embody to show you that your skin care journey starts inwards. Our creations are made with love and formulated to help guide you within and treat your skin concerns at the source. Embody is skincare, simplified. We’re on a mission to make skin care delicious–starting with the retinol gummy. The Retinol Gummy sold out 3 weeks before our official launch in June 2020 and has since been loved by over 2,000 women. Embody is here to change the way that women use skin care. We dare you to ditch your topicals and see what nourishing your skin from within can really do. - Jenn Chung | Founder & CEO | @thejennchung Read the rest of Jenn's story on ShoutoutLA.com
