In the spirit of slowing down, and soaking up every last bit of summer, this week we welcome May Lindstrom, skincare guru and founder of her eponymous luxury skincare brand, May Lindstrom Skincare.
May started crafting her brand in her kitchen back in 2008 - long before “clean” beauty was barely a buzzword. Beauty editors and celebs alike have grown to covet her number one best-selling Blue Cocoon, the magical blue tansy balm-to-oil cure-all crafted in small batches, that you slather on wet skin to calm inflammation, banish dryness all while delivering an intoxicating hit of aromatherapy (Tracee Ellis Ross and Sadie Sink, among others, are big fans).
In this week’s episode you’ll hear:How May’s self-described “Little House on the Prairie” upbringing inspired her connection to plants and nature, the bedrock of her brand todayHow she went from living in her car in LA to training line chefs at one of Emeril Lagasse’s New Orleans’ hotspot restaurants. The twist of fate that led her to NYC where she went from model to makeup artist to skincare guru Why she pulled her line from retailers in 2020 - essentially cutting her profit in halfWhat we can expect next from the brand
