Why an esthetician chose to formulate this

Sylvia is a licensed esthetician who built Skin by Brownlee & Co. from her treatment room. After years of seeing acne, dark spots and sensitive skin up close, especially on melanin-rich skin, she formulated the products she wished her clients already had: effective enough to show results, gentle enough to use every day.
