<\/p>\nYou’ve heard that probiotics and superfoods are beneficial for your internal health, but did you know that your skin care can be improved by harnessing the power of these ingredients too?<\/p>\n
Doctor Roshini Raj, a practicing gastroenterologist had a lightbulb moment after seeing the life-changing impact probiotics had in her patients’ natural diets and as supplements for their internal health. Not only were they feeling better, but their skin seemed to glow.<\/p>\n
She launched TULA in 2014, applying her medical knowledge to skin care with the goal of restoring her patients’ confidence. We chatted with Dr. Raj about her skin care favorites, clean beauty, and feeling empowered.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re so excited to bring back the TULA Classic Purifying Cleanser for our members! Why is it important to pick the right face wash (even if you wash it off right away)?<\/strong> What does it mean to be a clean beauty brand today?<\/strong> How do you hope people feel when they use your products?<\/strong> When do you feel the most empowered?<\/strong> What is the best skin care advice you\u2019ve ever received?<\/strong> What does your current skin care routine look like?<\/strong> What is your favorite TULA product at this moment?<\/strong> How has your self-care routine changed since the pandemic?<\/strong> How do you see the skin care industry changing in the next year?<\/strong> xx, The FabFitFun Team<\/p>\n
\nI\u2019m so excited as well! Our Cult Classic Purifying Cleanser<\/a> is one of my favorite products, I use it morning and night and could not imagine my routine without it. It removes dirt and pore-clogging debris from my skin without stripping it of its natural oils or leaving it feeling tight and dry. I try to keep my routine efficient, so I love how it gently removes makeup and preps my skin for my next skin care steps.<\/p>\n
\nFor TULA, it\u2019s about not having to choose between skin care that\u2019s healthy and skin care that works, which is why all our products are clean and clinically effective. We formulate all TULA products with our proprietary blend of prebiotic and probiotic extracts, superfoods, and powerful, clinically proven skin care actives like ceramides, salicylic acid, niacinamide, and many more. We look to science and clinical research to decide which ingredients to include and not include, and also clinically test all products for efficacy. We also do not formulate with retinol and are 100% cruelty-free.<\/p>\n
\nFrom day one, TULA has been about inspiring confidence and making it easier to achieve a healthy balance, inside and out. Through our #EmbraceYourSkin messaging, we\u2019ve helped lead the way for skin positivity and changing beauty industry norms. It\u2019s so inspiring to read our community\u2019s reviews, comments, & DMs about how TULA has changed their skin and improved
\ntheir confidence. Every time I read a customer review or see their results, I am reminded of why we do what we do!<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/05084932\/TULA-Roshini-Headshot-scaled.jpg\")

\nI love having brainstorms and working sessions with the TULA team! We have an incredible group of people working so hard every day to bring the TULA magic to life – it truly wouldn\u2019t happen without them. I always leave our meetings feeling inspired, motivated, and excited for the future!<\/p>\n
\nThe best skin care advice I\u2019ve received has come from TULA! It\u2019s all about feeling confident and healthy, not perfect. Especially as I turn 50 this year, I\u2019m more aware of my skin than ever and the way I talk to myself. Something I love about TULA is how we encourage embracing your skin through all of life\u2019s stages and how there\u2019s nothing \u201canti\u201d about aging.<\/p>\n
\nMy current routine is a mix of our classic favorites with some of our latest best sellers. I always use our Cult Classic Purifying Cleanser<\/a> morning and night as well as the 24-7 Moisture Hydrating Day & Night Cream<\/a> to deeply hydrate and nourish my skin. For my nighttime routine, I typically use our Beauty Sleep Overnight Treatment<\/a> as well as the 24-7 PowerSwipe Day & Night Treatment Eye Balm<\/a>. If it\u2019s a self-care night, I love to treat myself with a hot bath and a face mask; my favorite is the Self Care Sunday Nourishing Face Mask<\/a>. I always take a supplement as well, my favorite is the TULA Balanced Beauty Gummy Vitamins<\/a>. But no skin care routine is complete without a healthy diet, regular exercise, and getting enough rest. I am a big believer in approaching beauty from the inside out. A happy and healthy body is going to radiate beauty and gut health has a very strong impact on skin health!<\/p>\n
\nIt\u2019s so hard to pick just one!! I love that all of our formulations are clean and effective and aim to improve the health and balance of the skin with our signature blend of probiotic extracts and superfoods. If I can\u2019t take my whole regimen with me, I would have to say I\u2019m loving our new Lip SOS Treatment Balms<\/a> for an instant burst of hydration as well as a gorgeous wash of color. Other than that, our Glow & Get It Eye Balm<\/a> lives in my purse (and on my desk) for on-the-go brightening.<\/p>\n
\nSelf-care is an extremely important yet often overlooked part of living a healthy lifestyle. Through the challenges of the pandemic and COVID-19, I\u2019ve been encouraging myself as well as recommending to my patients to go back to the basics. Getting 8 hours of rest every night, daily movement, and eating a healthy, balanced diet can make a huge difference and is connected to everything from gut health, skin health, to mental health.<\/p>\n
\nThe beauty and wellness industry is full of inspiration! I\u2019m constantly inspired by other female founders who have created beautiful products and brands and I hope 2022 allows even more female founders to thrive. Supporting other women is something that is very important to me and I feel very lucky to be a part of this community.<\/p>\n
