Welcome to Bri Books! Today I'm sharing with you the best new products at Sephora--this summer's best new Sephora launches that are worth your time, energy, and coin. My intention is to inspire your fall beauty routine, so I'm breaking it down into the best skin care products at Sephora, the best makeup products at Sephora, and the best new body care products at Sephora. I've included links to all the products in the show notes and on bribookspod.com! 1:55: #1: Augustinus Bader Rich Cream: Originally released in 2018, the Rich Cream quickly attained unprecedented status among the skincare elite. I was able to review The Cream as part of a beauty story for Glamour.com. After that experience, I got the hype! For the 2021 update, Prof. Bader and his researchers returned to the lab to create a new version that focuses on cellular renewal. Since I've been using the original The Cream for a year, after trying out the updated formulation, I did notice a visible reduction in the pollution and clogged pores I had. I love to use The Cream as the highlight of my nighttime routine. It includes TFC8, which is known to reduce hyperpigmentation in the skin. The Rich Cream with TFC8 retails at $170 at Sephora, and you can pick up a half ounce bottle for $85 at Sephora. 4:45 #2: Saint Jane Hydrating Petal Cream: I've been quietly obsessing over Saint Jane all summer and spring, and the brand has finally launched in Sephora! The Hydrating Petal Cream is an all-day moisturizer with hibiscus peptides and floral essences (a cottagecore skincare dream) including antioxidant-rich magnolia and honeysuckle. Inspired by how flower petals maintain luxurious hydration, the Saint Jane founder developed this incredible product that helps to reduce stress in the skin. The best part? It doubles as a post-sun treatment with soothing active ingredients that calm sun-sensitive skin. Saint Jane Hydrating Petal Cream is $68 at Sephora. 8:00: #3: Tatcha Indigo Overnight Repair Serum in Cream Treatment: Another new to Sephora launch, this Tatcha treatment began as a personal formulation request from Vicky Tsai, founder of Tatcha, who dealt with eczema and flare-ups over the last year and wanted to create something to soothe her own skin. If you're dealing with regular skin inflammation, the Tatcha Indigo Overnight Repair Serum is for you. I love how this product rebalances my skin at night and helps it regenerate itself while I sleep. After a long night (or early morning), I reach for this treatment to get rid of any irritation. It exceeded my expectations, and I think it's a great pick for acne-prone skin. The Tatcha Indigo Overnight Repair Serum in Cream Treatment is available for $88 at Sephora. 10:30: Quick Break 10:50: #4: Ole Henriksen Cold Plunge Mask: This clay-based skin mask is great for combating oily skin in the summer months. It delivers a chill and purifies the skin, similar in effect to the Nordic cold cleanse tradition of jumping into chilly water. It's perfect for skincare Sundays and hot summer days alike. Here's a link to an Instagram Reels I created all about the Ole Henriksen Cold Plunge mask, which is available at Sephora for $38. 13:30: #5: Ole Henriksen Dewtopia 20% Night Acid: Packed with lemon enzyme, aloe juice, AHAs and PHAs, this night acid is the perfect one-and-done acid product for your skincare routine. It just launched in Sephora on July 26, inspired by Ole Henriksen's spa heritage. This product feels custard-like, the lemony sugar scent is divine at the end of a long day. Dewtopia is the perfect balance of exfoliating and nourishing components. Ole Henriksen Dewtopia 20% Night Acid is available at Sephora for $55. 16:30: #6: Algenist Blue Algae Vitamin C Dark Spot Correcting Peel: This epic vitamin C-based peel is formulated with spirulina, a blue-green algae known for its antioxidant properties. I use it as a resurfacing peel to help reduce hyperpigmentation and was blown away at how gentle this peel is. If the words ‘peel', ‘correcting,' and ‘brightening' conjure up thoughts of burning skin, fear not, this is by far the most gentle, non-irritating peel I've ever used. There's a tingle--so you know it's working--but it quickly vanishes. Pro tip: Pick up Algenist's Vitamin C Brightening Serum for double protection. When used together, I saw results within a week, and members of my family who also tested the product reported noticing a more even complexion and skin texture after a week of regular use. Algenist Blue Algae Vitamin C Dark Spot Correcting Peel is available at Sephora for $85, and the Algenist Blue Algae Vitamin C Serum is $72.

Algae has an exceptional ability to survive and thrive in the harshest environments on the planet. So when Algenist discovered that Alguronic Acid is responsible for regenerating and protecting algae, they patented this ingredient and built an entire company around it. The company is celebrating its tenth anniversary and customers are celebrating its unique guarantee to deliver visible results in 10 days! We speak to Tammy Yaiser about the potential of algae, the clinical results of some of the best products from this vegan line, and the company's commitment to sustainability.
Meet Rich Gersten. Rich has spent the last 30 years investing and building great consumer brands at top private equity firms including Tengram Capital Partners, L Catterton, and North Castle Partners. Rich spent the last 9 years dedicated specifically to investing in the beauty industry, where he developed an extensive network of relationships that sourced many emerging growth brands with very limited access to institutional capital. Realizing the significant opportunity to address this underserved area of the market in beauty, Rich founded True Beauty Ventures.Rich currently serves as a Senior Advisor to Tengram Capital Partners, and currently sits on the board of directors of Aquis, Algenist, Cos Bar, Lime Crime, Revive and formerly sat on the board of directors for Laura Geller Beauty, This Works, Active Ride Shop, NEST Fragrances and Deva Curl.
The Art of Serendipitous Innovation On this episode of the Reboot Chronicles Podcast, Rose Fernandez, CEO of Algenist, and I explored how her company was accidentally discovered and born in a lab, and instead of being cast aside, it was repurposed, carved out and acquired. Throughout Rose's career, she's helped build a handful of well-known beauty companies in executive roles, including Murad, Kate Somerville, and Jurlique. She joined around the time it was being spun out its parent company and acquired by Tengram Capital Partners, and eventually she took on the (her first) CEO role. Her journey was not easy, as she stepped up to the plate with much to learn about running a company, creating ingredients—and the legal, governance and growth issues that followed. Algae Lab Experiment to Beauty Brand Their core ingredient, alguronic acid, was accidentally discovered for another project and later turned into a patented skincare ingredient, expanded and imbedded into their broad productline. Unlike other health, wellness and beauty brands, Algenist was born from robust biotechnology, and turned into a culture that gets the science, and can actually make the ingredients, not just source it like most brands. They pride themselves on being a safe and clean brand with natural, quality ingredients suited for the emerging mass-market. Health, Beauty & Food Today consumers are more educated and informed about the foods they buy and the products they put on their bodies, a trend that is headed to the mass-market. Whole Foods paved the way, informing the average consumer on quality ingredients and what is going into their bodies. This is becoming the overarching theme in the health, wellness and beauty sectors, with many brands taking the initiative to provide consumers with quality ingredients while informing and providing clarity on the benefits. Larger CPG companies are also jumping on the bandwagon, building and acquiring brands in order to leverage these new ingredient claims—but they have a way to go. Entrepreneurial Tips Rose shared some tips she has learned about building a business. First, know your customer. This is key to draw them in and create appealing products. Second, find the best distribution options for your customer—DTC is just one. Three, do not just do what's currently trending. This can be a distraction; one you may have to undo later. Lastly, do not try and do everything, I have made this mistake as a CEO. Do what is true to you; this will set you apart from the rest. I might add, having some unique and patented products in your portfolio doesn't hurt either! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/rebootchronicles/message
Elana Drell- Szyfer, CEO of ReVive Skincare, and Algenist and This Works board member joined me on the Reboot Chronicles to dive into what's happening in the beauty industry. A Startup Journey ReVive Skincare was founded in 1997 by Dr. Gregory Brown, a plastic and reconstructive surgeon who crafted the luxury skincare company. Before its founding, Brown spent most of his time dedicated to researching how to accelerate the healing process of burns on people's skin. During the span of his research, he discovered restorative benefits to speed up healing damaged skin. Building on that research Brown built a solid foundation creating specially formulated products that rejuvenate customers changing skin behaviors. Elena calls it the “twenty-three-year-old startup” , because during its lifespan the company has been owned by Amway, while I was on their venture board, acquired by Shiseido and then acquired by private equity firm Tengram Capital Partners. Corporates To Startups With a long corporate career, Elena decided to make the switch to working with startups. Like me, she found that she really enjoys the challenge of working on startups. She worked with L'Oreal, Avon, Estee Lauder, and spent some time with Kenneth Cole. Before joining ReVive, she also worked with Laura Geller, where she learned the ropes. In 2017, Elena joined ReVive Skincare, taking on the role of CEO, where she rebooted the company instilling a strong sense of company culture, while keeping true to the company's roots. For those of weighing the pros and cons of corporates vs. startups, remember to look for what will keep you professionally sustained and stimulated—while you balance Fun-Money-Purpose. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/rebootchronicles/message

When working with her team to develop new products, there are two questions that Rose Fernandez, CEO of Algenist ask, "How is this product going to change the customer's life and How is it going to be compelling to the customer"? These are the types of questions any business should be asking. However, for Algenist, answering those questions with performance-based products is the #1 reason customer's buy and that reason is Trust. As Rose says it, "promise and then deliver on that promise, is the surest way to build trust with your customer". Do that and they will buy again and again and again. In Part 2 of this feature, Rose shares with us the questions and philosophy around building trust with a customer and why it has made Algenist who it is today. She also shares why "being zen and staying connected and present" helps with your leadership (and stress), how to find positive influence everywhere around you, why her two children and four boxers are the best leadership training, and what new product categories are in store for Algenist.

For Rose Fernandez, her journey from working the counter at a department store to CEO of Algenist is a classic success story. However, if you would have asked her as a little girl if she wanted to grow up to be a CEO the answer would have been "NO". At the time, she simply didn't have any role models. That changed as she rose through the ranks of different brands within the beauty industry, noticing that many of the leadership were strong women. These many years later, she's now doing the inspiring at Algenist, an innovative, performance-driven skincare company. In Part 1 of this feature, Rose shares with us why Algenist is different from other Skin Care companies and the origins of its now-famous "10-day claim". She also shares her experiences growing up in Whittier, California to a single mother and a working-class family and her advice to others in the beauty industry.
