This week’s podcast episode features an interview with Gloria Lu and Victoria Fu, the co-founders of Chemist Confessions. Chemist Confessions is a platform that was created to bring transparency and increased accessibility to the skincare space. With their respective degrees in chemical engineering—Victoria’s from The University of California San Diego and Gloria’s from Cornell—they both independently secured a career in the beauty industry. After deciding that neither wanted to pursue a career in traditional engineering, they both separately were granted positions as skincare chemists at L’Oreal, where, serendipitously, they met as cubicle mates. After much thought and consideration, they decided to leave L’Oreal to collaborate on what started as a modest IG account, and has now developed a robust following with over 145k followers, myself included!

Chemist Confessions is an evolving multiverse where Victoria and Gloria are

growing and expanding their own skincare line while continuing to provide their audience with educational and creative content through a blog and a recently published book, Skincare Decoded, available on amazon.com

The F.A.B. Five according to Victoria Fu:
