In this Mindset Monday episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta sits down with Dr. Julia Colangelo to unpack the transformative power of flow state—a mental zone where creativity, clarity, and ease converge. A therapist, educator, and researcher in the psychology of flow, Dr. Julia explains how this state of consciousness helps us tap into regenerative energy and unlock our deepest creative potential.


Flow isn’t just about peak productivity—it’s a practice of sustainable, aligned doing. While mindfulness asks us to notice the present moment, flow challenges us to channel that awareness into meaningful action. Dr. Julia shares how flow helped her recover from burnout and how it can serve as a tool for healing and self-empowerment.


Listeners will learn why we lose our natural ability to enter flow as we age, how societal expectations and trauma can block our access to this state, and how to create rituals that welcome flow into daily life. Dr. Julia introduces the concept of regenerative flow—a cycle of activation and recovery that prevents burnout and supports long-term creativity and well-being.


From neuroscience to nature, this conversation touches on how intentional energy use, communication, and lifestyle design can help anyone—especially women and caregivers—reclaim space for their creativity.

Tune in to learn why flow isn’t just a productivity hack—it’s a feminist act of self-preservation and a neuroscience-backed gateway to joy, resilience, and innovation.

How Regenerative Focus Starts With Self Compassion Ft. Dr. Julia Colangelo

In this Fragrance Friday episode of Skin Anarchy, host Dr. Ekta sits down with Daniella Carrasco, founder of the luxury fragrance house Linen Tutu. With a background in clinical aromatherapy and independent perfumery training, Daniella shares how scent became her way of translating time, emotion, and memory into artistic expression. Each fragrance in her debut collection is inspired by a specific hour and emotional state—blending storytelling with olfactory design.


Daniella discusses how Linen Tutu bridges simplicity and softness, science and sentiment. From the energizing Up @ 1 to the reflective Afterthought @ 7, every scent is crafted to evoke a moment in time—anchoring the wearer in presence. Dr. Ekta reflects on her own emotional response to Afterthought, a scent born during the pandemic and designed to embody gratitude, grief, and stillness.


The conversation also dives into Daniella’s approach to sustainability and creativity through constraint. She explains the challenges and rewards of working with bio-based botanicals and why emotional resonance matters more than trend-chasing. With Linen Tutu, fragrance becomes more than a product—it’s a personal ritual, a quiet invitation to slow down and reconnect.


For those intrigued by niche fragrance, emotional wellness, or the future of scent design, this episode is an intimate, thoughtful exploration of the power of perfume to shape how we experience time and memory.

Reframing Our Relationship With Time Through Fragrance With Linen Tutu

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, host Dr. Ekta sits down with Tony J. Abboud, Chief Commercial Officer of Core Biogenesis, for an eye-opening conversation on the cutting-edge science behind bioidentical proteins in skincare. Tony brings a biotech insider’s perspective to the world of beauty, revealing how plant-based protein technology is unlocking a new era of truly effective, science-backed formulations.


Core Biogenesis is tackling a long-standing challenge in skincare: the instability and inefficiency of traditional proteins and peptides. Tony breaks down how their team uses camelina sativa plants as natural bioreactors to produce high-purity, bioidentical growth factors like EGF and FGF—compounds that naturally support skin repair and collagen synthesis but decline with age. The innovation doesn’t stop there: Core Biogenesis’ breakthrough delivery system, oleosomes, stabilizes these proteins and enhances their penetration, leading to significantly better efficacy than traditional formats.


This isn’t just theoretical science—Tony explains how Core Biogenesis’ oleosome-bound EGF retained 93% activity under stress conditions, compared to just 8% with standard EGF. With performance like this, consumers could see visible results in just 14 to 30 days. It’s a game-changing advancement for skincare brands and users alike.


Whether you're a skincare enthusiast, product formulator, or biotech curious, this episode offers a fascinating look into the future of skincare—one where biology, sustainability, and innovation converge. Tune in to discover how Core Biogenesis is rewriting the rules with plant-powered precision.

Breakthroughs In Growth Factor Delivery and Oleosomes With Core Biogenesis

In this episode of Skin Anarchy’s Fragrance Friday, host Dr. Ekta sits down with Matthew J. Sánchez, the award-winning perfumer and founder of MATTEO PARFUMS®, to explore his bold journey from the world of finance to the art of fragrance. What began as a career in banking took a transformative turn when Matthew discovered the power of scent as a storytelling medium—and a path to reclaiming cultural identity and creative purpose.


The episode dives into the inspiration behind his debut fragrance, Celadawn—a deeply personal blend that pays homage to his West African, Mexican, and Mediterranean roots. With a groundbreaking horchata-amber accord and rich notes of vanilla, blood orange, and African resins, Celadawn captures memory, belonging, and warmth in a bottle. Matthew shares how the fragrance became an autobiographical work, earning acclaim and an industry award nomination.


His second release, Lover’s Dew, continues the theme of cultural reverence—reimagining fine fragrance through the lens of ancient Aztec and Mayan traditions. With ingredients like juniper berry, prickly pear, and marine accords, this aquatic fougère nods to ritual, luxury, and legacy.


More than scent, this conversation explores intention, artistry, and identity. Matthew offers insights into the emotional language of fragrance, the importance of representation in perfumery, and the harmony between creativity and structure. Whether you’re a fragrance lover or creative thinker, this episode is a reminder that sometimes the most powerful stories are the ones we wear.

How the PWRS Program Is Empowering the Next Generation of Female Surgeons with SkinCeuticals and ReSurge

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta sits down with Adam Hurly—longtime grooming journalist and founder of Blue Print, a new media platform dedicated to redefining how men engage with grooming, skincare, and wellness content. With over a decade writing for GQ, Esquire, and Men’s Journal, Adam brings deep industry insight and a clear-eyed view of what’s missing in the men’s space.


Adam shares how the rise of click-driven SEO has diluted the quality of grooming journalism, replacing editorial integrity with algorithm-fueled fluff. Blue Print is his response—a platform built on honesty, storytelling, and real product knowledge. He talks about the gap in the market for well-rounded, inclusive, and brand-loyalty-driven content tailored to the way men actually shop and consume media.


This episode dives into the evolution of men’s wellness coverage, the shift away from print, and how AI is reshaping content discovery. Adam explains why Blue Print is more than a blog—it’s a growing ecosystem of podcasts, interviews, and expert-driven recs with a clear mission: to elevate and legitimize men’s beauty and wellness content.


If you're looking for a smarter take on men’s grooming and the story behind one of the most exciting launches in men’s media, this conversation with Adam Hurley is a must-listen

How Journalism is Redefining Men’s Grooming with Blue Print by Adam Hurly

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, host Ekta sits down with Seth Nelson, co-founder of SOL LABS®, to discuss how surviving melanoma at age 27 became the catalyst for rethinking everything we know about sunscreen. What began as a personal health crisis evolved into a mission to make sun protection safer, smarter, and more enjoyable to use daily.


Seth shares how traditional sunscreens—greasy, irritating, and often overlooked—failed to meet the needs of real people. SOL LABS® set out to change that with mineral-only formulas that feel like high-end skincare and deliver clinical-grade performance. From South Korean R&D labs to the integration of astaxanthin (an antioxidant powerhouse discovered through AI research), every detail reflects a skincare-first approach to SPF.


Seth and co-founder Jenny also talk branding—creating a unisex, design-forward identity with their “anti-ordinary” sunscreen ethos. The line is rooted in clean, nourishing ingredients like hyaluronic acid and centella asiatica, with zero chemical filters. And with 31 new products on the horizon, including makeup-compatible formulas, SOL LABS® is on a mission to make SPF a part of everyone’s daily ritual.


Tune in for a conversation that’s as much about purpose as it is about product. Whether you're passionate about skincare, sun protection, or building brands that matter, this episode offers a refreshing look at innovation grounded in personal experience—and designed for impact.

Revolutionizing Sunscreen Formulations For Everyday Wear with SOL LABS

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, host Ekta is joined by the legendary Dr. Nicholas Perricone to explore the science behind aging, inflammation, and the future of skincare. Known for pioneering the link between inflammation and aging, Dr. Perricone returns to the spotlight with his new book, The Beauty Molecule, which dives into the cutting-edge science of mitochondrial health and acetylcholine’s role in reversing cellular damage.


Listeners will hear how Dr. Perricone challenged conventional dermatology by developing the first anti-inflammatory skincare and diet regimen—decades ahead of its time. He breaks down how mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to aging and inflammation, and why boosting acetylcholine—the “beauty molecule”—can transform not only skin health, but overall longevity. From daily meditation and exercise to transdermal antioxidants and hydrogen water, Dr. Perricone outlines a practical roadmap for rewiring how we think about beauty and wellness.


The episode also explores the therapeutic promise of peptides, hydrogen water as a metabolic therapy, and why the future of skincare may lie in biochemistry over cosmetic quick fixes. Backed by data and decades of research, this conversation will shift your perspective on aging from surface-level solutions to deep, cellular renewal.


Whether you're a skincare aficionado, health professional, or wellness seeker, this episode offers an inspiring and scientifically grounded look at the future of beauty. Tune in to hear how Dr. Perricone is redefining aging—one molecule at a time.

 The Beauty Molecule That Is Changing Everything Featuring Renowned Dr. Perricone

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, host Ekta is joined by internationally renowned aesthetic physician Dr. Ivona Igerc—also known as Dr. Ivy—for a thought-provoking conversation on the future of regenerative skincare and the role of cultural intelligence in aesthetic medicine. With a background in oral surgery and a PhD in bone regeneration, Dr. Ivy shares her journey from clinical research in Europe to pioneering facial harmony techniques in Asia and the Middle East.


Dr. Ivy offers her unique perspective on beauty—one that merges anatomical expertise, sculptural artistry, and a deep respect for cultural differences. She explains why global ideals of beauty cannot be standardized, and why subtle, undetectable enhancement is the new gold standard. Her “Face Design” method prioritizes identity preservation while elevating natural balance and character.


The conversation also dives into the science behind her latest innovation: Europe’s first exosome-based skincare line. Unlike stem cells, exosomes offer potent regenerative benefits in a more accessible form, delivering molecular messengers that boost collagen, reduce inflammation, and restore skin vitality. Paired with a newly developed at-home device that incorporates LED, radiofrequency, and EMS, Dr. Ivy is redefining what it means to care for skin from the inside out.


This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in regenerative beauty, global aesthetics, and the evolution of skincare. Dr. Ivy’s fusion of science, soul, and cultural insight is ushering in a smarter, more human approach to modern beauty.

Inside the Future of Exosomes and Regenerative Beauty With Dr. Ivy

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, host Ekta is joined by Dr. Mamina Turegano—triple board-certified in dermatology, dermatopathology, and internal medicine—for a conversation that blends science with soul. Known for her integrative approach to skin health, Dr. Mamina shares how her Japanese heritage, her mother’s traditional remedies, and her clinical training have shaped her philosophy of care. The episode explores how modern dermatology can benefit from incorporating Eastern wisdom, with a focus on treating the root cause of skin conditions—not just the symptoms.


Dr. Mamina breaks down the link between gut health and chronic inflammatory conditions like acne and psoriasis, emphasizing the importance of addressing internal imbalances through diet, stress reduction, and circadian rhythm alignment. She also challenges the skincare status quo, highlighting why conventional acne treatments may fail if they don’t support the skin barrier or address hormonal drivers like cortisol and androgens.


With patients now more informed than ever, she encourages curiosity—but also cautions against misinformation that can derail healing. Her new book, The Holistic Psoriasis Management Nutrition Guide, dives deeper into this integrative framework, including practical lifestyle tools and nutrition strategies that support lasting skin health.


If you’ve ever wondered how lifestyle, microbiome health, and cultural traditions intersect with cutting-edge dermatology, this episode is a must-listen. Dr. Mamina offers a compassionate, evidence-backed roadmap to healing from the inside out.
