Jasmina is a beauty industry pioneer who is passionate about translating innovation into meaningful brands that connect us with the miracle of biology. Her previous company, Mother Dirt, included a line of products focused on the skin microbiome. The hero product restores Ammonia-Oxidizing Bacteria (AOB), which current hygiene practices have stripped from the skin. Now, Jasmina is working with the powerful Ginkgo Foundry to see what we can learn from nature and  harness through microbes for use in the personal care industry.  We talk to Jasmina about the incredible potential of this work and how it reminds us that natural, biological intelligence is the oldest and often most reliable intelligence of all.Learn more:Website - https://www.ginkgobioworks.com/Also mentioned:C16 BioSciences (synthetic palm oil) - https://www.c16bio.com/

In today's hyper-clean, anti-germ world, we have been raised to believe that all germs and bacteria are bad for us, while this is not actually the case. Yes, some germs and bacteria are harmful, but a much larger percentage is useful to us. And unfortunately, conventional cleaning practices have stripped the skin of its microbiome.  My guest for today's episode is Jasmina Aganovic, the President of Mother Dirt (a line of biome-friendly personal care products focused on restoring and maintaining the balance of the skin biome).   The technology is based off research from AOBiome Therapeutics, a biotech company focused on transforming human health through products that restore Ammonia-Oxidizing Bacteria (AOB), which current hygiene practices have stripped from the modern microbiome. Jasmina is a cosmetics and consumer goods entrepreneur who received her degree in chemical and biological engineering from MIT. Her career path combined her technical background with roles at consumer brands like LVMH, Fresh, and Living Proof. In this episode, we delve into the skin's microbiome and try to recalibrate our perception of what it means to be clean.  Have you introduced biome-friendly steps into your daily skincare regimen? Tell us about it in the comments! In this episode What is the skin microbiome? What are Ammonia Oxidizing Bacteria (Peacekeeper bacteria)? What does it mean to be clean? How to have a more biome-friendly routine   Quotes “When we think about what it means to be clean, it certainly is built around this concept of not having bacteria there. And it is because we have always associated bacteria with being sick or being unhealthy.” [1:42] “Ammonia Oxidizing Bacteria is kind of a crucial lost bacteria that once used to exist on our skin to help promote balance.” [4:54] “The whole point of being clean is to be healthy. And the interesting thing is that we're now learning that bacteria are actually playing a crucial role in helping us be healthy.” [6:30]   Links Find Mother Dirt online here Follow Mother Dirt on Instagram The Beauty of Dirty Skin by Dr. Whitney Bowe The Dirt Cure by Maya Shetreat Kahn

On today’s episode Marni sync’s up with beauty industry pioneer and entrepreneur, Jasmina Aganovic, President, of Mother Dirt, to talk about why dirty is the new clean, how we all need to restore our skin microbiome, the game changing personal care products that are helping restore the good bacteria and recalibrate our skin's ecosystem, and how personal skincare struggles that inspired her to pursue a career in skincare, cosmetics and beauty. As a child and throughout her young adult life, Jasmina struggled with acne. It was this struggle that led her to seek solutions through research and studies to solve her own personal skin issues. Her drive and passion around this topic inspired her to pursue a career in the beauty industry upon her graduating and receiving her degree in chemical and biological engineering from MIT. She has worked for top brands LVMH, Fresh, Nutra Click and Living Proof and today, is innovating and inventing at Mother Dirt. You may already know that our bodies are host to trillions of microorganisms and the skin is comprised of an elaborate and complex ecosystem. Just like our gut relies on good bacteria and probiotics, our skin relies on good bacteria to help us be healthy as well. This elaborate ecosystem is called the skin biome. Over the years, thanks to widespread use of soaps, deodorants, and other personal care products, our good bacteria have been wiped out. Mother Dirts signature product, AO+ Mist containing live Ammonia-Oxidizing Bacteria (AOB), brings the bacteria back to your skin, restoring your skin to its native, healthy state. AOB is a microorganism found everywhere: lakes, rivers, soil, and formerly our skin. Mother Dirts scientific Founder, David Whitlock, was the one that connected this bacterium to human skin. He was the one that said, “Hey, this bacteria once existed on our skin and I think it’s really important and we should figure out why.”  This was really the principle around which Mother Dirt was formed.

“Our bodies know how to take care of themselves, and somehow we got disconnected from that. Being able to pave a way back to a ‘native’ state of our skin before we started doing chemistry experiments on it … is very plausible, and it makes a lot of sense to me.” Jasmina Aganovic is the president of Mother Dirt, a biotech company developing biome-friendly skincare products. The line features AO+ Mist, a first-of-its-kind product containing live Ammonia-Oxidizing Bacteria (AOB), the ‘peace-keeper’ bacteria that has been stripped from the modern microbiome by time spent indoors and contemporary hygiene practices. A cosmetic and consumer goods entrepreneur, Jasmina earned her degree in chemical and biological engineering from MIT. Today, Jasmina shares the story behind Mother Dirt and the evolving definition of what it means to be clean. She offers insight around anti-bacterial hand sanitizer, the connection between our modern lifestyle and skin issues, and the prevalence of acne and eczema in the US. Jasmina describes the Mother Dirt product line, explaining the diverse benefits of AO+ Mist and what the company is working on now. Listen in for Jasmina’s personal skin care journey and learn how Mother Dirt is using its products to initiate a conversation about the microbial world.
