We place a lot of emphasis on how clean ingredients make our body feel, but these same ingredients have an incredible impact on how we look too. The skin is the body's largest organ, and the right products can leave your skin with a healthy glow from within. Adele Uddo, Owner of Essentiel by Adele as well as a parts model, grew up reading the labels. Her household took a strict radical approach to eating clean, which she dreaded as a child but appreciated in adulthood. Adele founded Essentiel to emphasize the importance of nourishing the body inside and out. She went on a journey of meticulous research to create a hydrating, multi-use moisturizer with essential oils like frankincense, raspberry leaf extract, and hyaluronic acid. Her moisturizer is an alternative to traditional skincare that is usually filled with harmful ingredients like artificial fragrances and toxic chemicals. In this episode, Adele talks to Jen about her radical upbringing with food, the importance of natural ingredients in skincare products, and the journey behind creating a clean multi-use moisturizer.
