Good Science Beauty has its origins in biotech research. Our founder, Dr. Suzanne Saffie-Siebert, PhD, is a leading expert in drug delivery – the science of transporting pharmaceutical compounds to their target site in the body, in order to make them safer and more effective.
Through her biotech company, SiSaf, Suzanne developed a variety of drug delivery technologies that use biodegradable silicon particles for the needle free delivery of medicines.
Many cosmetic ingredients share the same challenges faced by pharmaceutical ingredients: they degrade easily when exposed to air or light (such as Vitamins A, C, and E) and/or their molecular size or solubility profile restrict their uptake by the target organ – the skin.
Skincare is a passion of Suzanne’s. Like most people she has tried countless skincare products that didn’t do what they promised. So she decided to apply her delivery technology to cosmetics – and Good Science Beauty was born.
