Meet Our Founder: Joanna Vargas

Joanna Vargas is a recognized skin care expert and the founder of an eponymous skin care collection. With salons in New York City and Los Angeles, her commitment to plant-based ingredients, her passion for science, and her nature-meets- technology approach has made her one of the most sought-out estheticians and experts in the beauty industry today.

Bringing her background in photography and a BA in women's studies into the beauty industry, Joanna navigated her early days as a facialist in New York City. Joanna first fell in love with natural skin care products while practicing esthetics a a day spa, and later worked for a celebrity dermatologist, where she learned extensively about anti-aging treatments and the most efficacious ingredients and formulas available.
