In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta interviews Elisa Park and Regina Roucourt, co-founders of Regelica, a skincare brand rooted in both Korean and Eastern European influences. With a shared passion for skincare that began while working together in a gaming company, Elisa and Regina have crafted Regelica to merge the best of Eastern and Western skincare philosophies, focusing on gentle yet effective ingredients. The duo shares the inspiration behind Regelica, where Korean skincare principles of collagen preservation meet Western approaches to boosting collagen production. This fusion led to their star product, the Mandelic and Edelweiss Renewal Serum, known for its gentle yet powerful exfoliating benefits that suit a wide range of skin types. They also discuss the brand’s innovative use of bakuchiol as a natural, irritation-free alternative to retinol and highlight their Microbiome and Vitamin C Immunity Support Essence, a Korean-inspired formula that nurtures the skin’s barrier and enhances hydration. Elisa and Regina emphasize the importance of cultural diversity in skincare, and how their differing backgrounds and perspectives allow them to create products that appeal to a wide audience. For aspiring entrepreneurs, they advise approaching the industry with curiosity and a willingness to innovate. Regelica’s journey exemplifies how blending cultural insights with scientific research can lead to products that cater to diverse skin needs, embodying a truly holistic approach to skincare.
