The Full Story
Did you know the average person has traces of 50 to 200* industrial chemicals in their bloodstream—many linked to serious health risks, including cancer?
We’re a biohacker dad and an integrative medicine clinician mom who take health seriously—fermenting our own yogurt, making bone broth, tracking our microbiome. But we weren't always this way.
We're who we are now as a result of a series of health challenges over the years which we're proud to say we've overcome. Autoimmune disease, cancer, chronic skin issues, and more. We embarked on a journey several years ago to overhaul our diet, and learn from functional biology about what creates true vitality and health. We focused on real, nourishing food, and optimized every aspect of our health. Our entire lives changed for the better and we'll never go back.
One day, during our daily obsession over ingredients on food labels at the grocery store - we realized:
What about our skin?
Your skin is your body’s largest organ, and it absorbs up to 90% of what you put on it. When we scrutinized the labels of our products - especially the ones we were using on our babies - we couldn't help but yearn for something different. This is how Brooklyn Skin Food was born - right here in our Brooklyn kitchen.
Knowing that our skin's microbiome needs real nourishment, we created solutions for the body's largest organ (our skin) made of only 100% food-grade ingredients.
Our products are made of:
✔️ 100% food-grade, bioavailable ingredients your skin actually recognizes
✔️ Grass-fed tallow & organic coconut oil – rich in collagen-boosting, skin-loving nutrients
✔️ Organic essential oils like cold-pressed orange & lemongrass – powerful antioxidants that brighten and support skin health
✔️ Organic coffee extract – packed with polyphenols to fight inflammation & boost circulation
✔️ Organic almond oil & arrowroot powder – nourish, soften, and keep skin balanced
✔️ Our deodorant uses Pure baking soda as the most natural and effective deodorizer and friend to your skin.
We’re 100% industrial seed oil-free, no fillers, no preservatives—just real food for your skin.
Brooklyn Skin Food was made for our family—and now it's for yours.
We’re honored to be part of your journey. Welcome.
