This Valentine's we are introducing our love collaboration with French Farmacie. French Farmacie is founded by Tricia and when I met her, we immediately connected on so may fronts, not only we are both passionate about ingredients and non-toxic beauty but also about our love for travel and France. This is why we decided to bundle our 2 bestsellers into a perfect Valentine's gift.
I admire how Tricia connects with her community, she has a true passion for clean beauty and brings the best advice when it comes to skincare! Here she shares her passion for all things related to beauty and more...

Interview with Tricia
What does beauty mean to you?
Finding the beauty of being at ease in our most natural states. Pure acceptance of our true selves.
The woman I admire most is:
Of course, I admire many women in the public eye, such as Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey. But I would say I admire my friend Claire the most – after her husband died suddenly at a young age, she continued to be the incredibly giving and inspiring person she is and didn’t stop living.
On my bucket list is:
Going back to Bali. My trip to Indonesia was life-changing and was the catalyst for French Farmacie’s positive social and environmental impact commitment.
If I could wake up tomorrow in any hotel, it would be:
In the spirit of PARIS AT 7 PM, one of my most memorable experiences was staying at Hôtel Plaza Athénée in Paris. Classic elegance with a view of the Eiffel Tower at one end and the Champs-Elysées at the other.
Live/Work/Play: Saint Tropez, Paris or New York?
Live in New York, Work in Paris, Play in Saint-Tropez
Favorite hour of the day?
Golden hour, when the sun is close to the horizon on a sunny day, and the light is warmer and softer. Pure magic.
The beauty essential you have to pry out of my hands is:
I’m biased, but it would have to be our Sérum Radiant. So nourishing and instantly reveals the perfect sun-kissed glow year round.
What I am reading now:
I’m late to this one, but “All The Light We Cannot See” by Anthony Doerr
My first kiss was:
innocent and sweet
The lips I remember most are:
I love all the vintage images of Brigitte Bardot and her naturally full, pouty lips. How fun would it be to see Madame Gabriela lipsticks on Brigitte then and now?!
