Frustrated by the high costs of natural skincare products that actually worked, Burget and Lo scraped together $4,000 to build a better skincare solution.On nights and weekends, in addition to their full time jobs, they combined their efforts and expertise and began making all-natural formulations in Lo’s apartment.
