Biossance Expands The Clean Academy ‒ The Ultimate Clean Beauty Resource
EMERYVILLE, Calif., Feb. 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Biossance, a pioneering clean skincare brand from Amyris, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMRS), a global science and technology leader of pure, sustainable ingredients for the Health & Wellness, Clean Beauty and Flavors & Fragrances markets, is thrilled to announce The Clean Academy, the brand's award-winning educational platform, is back in session.
This season, The Clean Academy takes a deeper look at ingredients in some of the most common skincare formulas, such as cleansers, moisturizers, and sunscreens. Each video - hosted by the beauty industry's leading experts - guides viewers through the often complex labels on their favorite formulas to help them better understand how each product works on their skin.
Biossance has united a group of other well-known clean beauty brands - like ILIA, Youth To The People, Follain, Āether Beauty, Weleda, Suntegrity and Ursa Major to lead these conversations and to inspire consumers to feel more confident to make well-informed choices.
"We are very excited to usher in the next season of engaging episodes, each one diving deeper into the often murky waters of ingredients," said Catherine Gore, President of Biossance. "Together with our partners, The Clean Academy aims to educate and empower consumers, helping them better understand their beauty products so they never have to sacrifice sustainability for efficacy."
“We're thrilled for the opportunity to be a part of the important conversation Biossance is creating around the clean category. Together with likeminded brands, we're challenging the industry to create change, faster. We're proud to have created a brand that, since its inception, has put transparency in ingredients and sourcing first. For us, clean means vegan, consciously-created formulas that are safe for your skin and the planet. With a focus on education around the clean movement, we are confident that we're impacting change, together.” - Greg Gonzalez and Joe Cloyes, Founders of Youth To The People.
Created as a comprehensive Clean Beauty resource for consumers and industry insiders alike, The Clean Academy educates viewers through an interactive curriculum of fun and engaging video content. The platform, which debuted in October 2019, is updated with relevant and trending content to reflect the most commonly asked questions and searched terms in Clean Beauty.
