"For me, that spans across all things in my life — [from] beauty [to] how I edit my wardrobe. It's like that one really good pair of jeans you're always reaching for," she told People back in 2022.

"That's how I look at skincare as well. That one really good moisturizer you keep reaching for. That one really great hydration product you keep going back to. These formulas are very intentional and very specific so that they can become those curated essentials that you keep going back to."

Her own "journey toward healthier skin" inspired this venture, particularly her nearly decade-long struggle with perioral dermatitis, which led to a rash around her nose and mouth.

"Over the years, she has tried so many products and a lot of them only made her complexion worse," the insider explained. "The whole aim of her label is to offer clean products with minimal ingredients because ultimately, she uses everything herself, and she wants to be able to stand behind it."
