Agatha Relota Luczo on Going From Chanel Model at 15 to Building Fortuna Skin
In this episode of From Vision to Creation, Alexander sits down with Agatha Relota Luczo — founder of Fortuna Skin and former high-fashion model who was scouted at just 15 years old and quickly became the face of Chanel after walking Paris couture.
Agatha shares the incredible origin story behind Fortuna Skin — from sitting in the makeup chairs of legendary artists and falling in love with skincare, to building a mission-driven brand rooted in a certified-organic, regenerative farm in Sicily. Alongside her husband, Agatha helped transform a small piece of ancestral land into an 800-acre farm powered by natural spring water, rich volcanic soil, and over 80 medicinal plants — with a guiding philosophy: leave the world better than you found it.
We dive into the science and sourcing behind Fortuna Skin, including their sound bath extraction method designed to preserve plant potency, the skincare benefits of extra virgin olive oil and olive leaf water, and why “single estate” sourcing matters — both for what you eat and what you put on your skin. Agatha also opens up about balancing motherhood with building a global brand, staying grounded in tradition and integrity, and why she believes your team can become your greatest asset.
If you’re interested in beauty entrepreneurship, clean skincare, regenerative farming, longevity, ingredient transparency, or building a brand with real values behind it — this is an episode you’ll love.
