In this episode of The Beauty Sessions, Sophie Blowfield sits down with Neada Deters, founder of LESSE - the simplified, elevated ritual of clinically advanced, active botanical skincare.
Born and raised in Sydney by the ocean, Neada moved to New York after studying art history and theory, where she worked as a beauty editor before founding LESSE seven years ago.
Neada reveals how her beauty editor background built an exhaustive archive of ingredient knowledge, why Australia ingrained a reverence for nature while New York demands uncompromising results, and how her philosophy of "ritual, not routine" transforms skincare from perfunctory to emotional.
Tune in to discover the strategic insights behind building a luxury skincare brand, why refusing investor pressure can actually elevate your brand, and how Neada's approach to distilling nature's most potent actives into clinically advanced solutions represents skincare's future.
I hope you enjoy!
