Skincare’s Dirty Secrets (From a Clean Beauty Chemist)
Podcast: GlowJobPublished On: Thu Sep 04 2025
Description: Ever wondered what really goes into that $100 serum on your shelf or what brands DON’T tell you about that “clinically approved” label slapped on your products? In this week’s GlowJob, we sit down with Krupa Koestline— cosmetic chemist, pioneer in “Clean Beauty”, and founder of KKT Labs, to unpack the beauty industry from the inside out. Krupa reveals the shocking truth about product costs (spoiler: that $50 serum probably costs $5 to make), why vitamin C might be the most overhyped ingredient in skincare, and the underrated actives she actually swears by. We get into clean beauty versus fear-mongering, loopholes in U.S. ingredient labeling, and the real difference between dermatologist-tested and chemist-approved. If you’ve ever wondered what’s really behind that influencer-backed launch, this episode will blow your mind—and maybe your bathroom shelf.
