Hey there! I'm Elba, and I'm all about creating effective skincare products and taking care of the microbiome.

I obtained my bachelor's degree in biotechnology engineering from ITESM, Mexico and worked for a couple of years in the R&D department of a biotech pharma. Later, I pursued my PhD at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, where I focused on designing and studying new treatments for acne and atopic dermatitis. Now, I work as a consultant in Germany, helping skincare brands develop and improve their products while creating my skincare line for athletes.

When I'm not working, you can find me at the gym, walking with my dog, or doing pilates. I love experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen too! Oh, and I also share my skin-related insights on blogs and social media accounts (Instagram and TikTok), so be sure to follow me if you're interested in learning more.
