French Farmacie began from a personal need for change. For four years, I kept my infertility journey mostly to myself, not wanting to burden the people close to me or disclose it at work. In the grief that followed, I committed to caring for myself differently. What I didn't realize was that these small, consistent actions were quietly becoming rituals, and that those rituals would help me grieve and slowly rebuild my resilience.

I also noticed a real improvement in my skin, and I wanted to understand why. That curiosity led me to science. With a background in biotech and diagnostics, I immersed myself in research on how ingredients influence the skin and its function.

A trip to Indonesia became another inflection point. Ocean plastic pollution was impossible to ignore. I returned home committed to building something rooted in ritual, science, and sustainability.

Partnering with a Harvard-educated Cosmetic Chemist, French Farmacie became a commitment to science, sustainability, and skin longevity. The rituals that helped me heal became one of the brand's core principles.
