Meet Peter White: The Aussie with a Creative Flair
Originally hailing from Australia, White has made waves in the design world as both a graphic designer and an entrepreneur. With a resume featuring powerhouses like Google, Coca Cola, Land Rover, and Samsung, it's clear he’s a creative force to be reckoned with.
White’s entrepreneurial spirit kicked into high gear in 2020 as he founded Herbitual, a skincare brand born from his own struggles with eczema. "Herbitual is the culmination of his eczema journey, a deep dive into Traditional Chinese Medicine that healed his skin – and the realization of a promise he made to himself at the height of his suffering," as detailed on Herbitual’s site.
His mission? Providing “Steroid-free skincare for dry, sensitive and eczema prone skin.”
'The White Lotus' star Michelle Monaghan and Peter White met in 2000.
A Bar Encounter That Sparked Romance
The couple's story began in a New York City bar back in 2000, where fate brought them together over drinks. "He had blue eyes and a Mohawk. It did something for me," Monaghan reminisced in an interview with Women’s Health, showcasing the budding chemistry that would grow into a lifetime commitment. Their first date followed the very next day.
On August 12, 2005, the two exchanged vows in an intimate seaside ceremony in Port Douglas, Australia.
