  • Episode 62 - cancer destroyed my sister's skin, how I created the ultimate sensitive skincare products and finding success after trauma.
    Sep 27 2024

    What impact does an intensive cancer treatment journey have on the skin?

    Why is it so hard to manage ultra sensitive skin?

    What are the most common skincare myths and what really matters when it comes to caring for our largest bodily organ?

    In this episode of Love at First Science, Cel chats to the co-founder of By Sarah skincare, Sarah Murrell about her sister Lauren's Leukaemia diagnosis in her twenties and how their family trauma led to the sisters establishing their incredible natural skincare brand.

    When Lauren was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia, her sister, Sarah, became her stem cell donor and saved Lauren's life.

    As Lauren recovered, Sarah struggled to find natural yet effective products to soothe and revitalise Lauren's cancer ravaged skin.

    So she decided to develop her own formulas and, with this act of sisterly love, skincare By Sarah was born.
