our story*
If you're wondering who I am and what I'm about. My name is Therèse and I'm passionate about skincare, wellbeing and cosmetic science. I've been through the gamut of running my own self-funded skincare brand as well working in research labs and owning a wellbeing centre in Melbourne.
Good Chemistry* is the happy byproduct of all this — cosmetic chemist, naturopath and scientist — as well as my search for, and obsession, with active and natural skin and personal care products. My passion all thing skincare, stems from years of skin problems, trialling existing products and formulating my own range of successful skincare and natural health lines.
I know what it means to put yourself out there and start a new brand. I've been there. At Good Chemistry*, it's not just me but our team supporting you. We help you solve some of the toughest problems start ups face like:
1. How do find a way to get started?
2. How do I do this on a budget?
3. How do I achieve this...but make it more natural?
4. What do I need to do to get this to market?
