Excerpt:

“Born out of my passion for gardening and beauty while re-evaluating my consumption habits and the way they affect the planet” – Liana Blomquist

Liana’s career spans over 10 years at Elizabeth Arden and Revlon as a Global Marketing and Product Development Exec in their fragrance and skincare categories. She had a consistent track record of launching successful product innovations and marketing campaigns globally. Over the span of her time there, she launched over 30 fragrance and skincare products winning global awards and nominations from key publications and foundations.

New York City’s first and only rooftop beauty farm that spans over three rooftops (2K sq. ft.) and grows and processes over 50 beauty botanicals to create extracts and beauty products out of.

An online education space where people can learn about raw materials, how they’re grown or made, how they’re processed and how they end up in the products you use on a day-to-day basis.

A community where people can link up with friends and family, old and new, to get inspired with new ideas, to take on a challenge and take steps to shop more locally and live more sustainability when it comes to beauty.
