Dreaming of short-sleeve weather? Well, we have been ever since the sweetest little package of NudeStix arrived! This foundation set has a scent so light and citrusy, that it makes one dream of sunnier carefree days. Online, make-up artists rave about how this product is all about being easy-to-use, that makes ‘skin look like skin,’ and really moisturizes. This made us curious to try it, as some days you just only need a shimmer to feel beautiful, and this is where this four-pack saves the day.
The Power of a Hashtag
Nudestix’s mission is to make you feel confident about your skin with minimal effort. Whether you have dry, oily, acne-prone, or combination skin, there is undoubtedly a product that will meet the needs of your skin. With the hashtag #LoveMyNudeSkin, they encourage their community to embrace their bare-faced beauty and share it with the world.
Every product is loaded with natural ingredients geared for performance and long-term results. The brand, which is vegan, gluten-free, cruelty-free, non-toxic, and sulphate-free, is backed by science. With Dr. Jason Emer leading the charge in product formulation – this well-renowned dermatologist in Beverly Hills believes in ‘beauty without boundaries’ and applies his knowledge and passion towards creating effective, natural, and gender-neutral skincare.
The Mother-Daughter Trio Behind the Brand
Jenny, Taylor, and Ally Frankel took it upon themselves to make accessible makeup and skincare that solved a multitude of everyday problems. Ally and Taylor needed a quick-and-easy morning routine that got them out the door in 10-minutes. Jenny saw the need for practical makeup sticks that would suit life on the go.
As a former product developer for MAC and chemical engineer with over 20-years of experience in the beauty industry, she saw a need in the market that could be filled. Nudestix was born because a mother and her two daughters sought not only to solve their own beauty concerns but to make the morning routines of women everywhere a little bit smoother.
A few years after the launch of Nudestix, the skincare counterpart, Nudeskin was born. Ally, the voice of Generation Z, understood the consumer desire for sustainable materials and natural ingredients and inspired packaging for the brand that is eco-friendly (biodegradable or recyclable) because she believes that protecting our skin should not come at the expense of the planet.
