I’m honored to share that Bubble has been named one of Fast Company’s Brands That Matter for 2024. This recognition means so much because it reflects what Bubble has always been about: making premium, science-backed skincare accessible to everyone. From the very beginning, our mission has been to break down barriers in the beauty industry—ensuring that clinical, premium self-care is no longer a luxury. At the core of this achievement is our incredible team. Their dedication, creativity, and ability to think differently are what make us push the boundaries every day. I’m endlessly grateful for their passion and commitment to this mission every single day. Our community is the heart and soul of everything we do. This recognition is as much about them as it is about us. It’s a reflection of the meaningful connection we’ve been able to build together and the real impact we’re striving to create. Thank you to Fast Company for this honor and to everyone who has supported us along the way. We couldn’t be more excited to keep pushing forward. https://lnkd.in/ehbCd-_k

XRC's latest Consumer VC Benchmarks are in! 💡 Our newest report highlights industry trends and investment opportunities in Women's Health. 🧘♀️ Download the free report here: bit.ly/3BMYhd4 Key Insights: - Women make 80% of household healthcare decisions and control 70-80% of discretionary spending, but only ~1% of healthcare research and innovation is invested in female-specific conditions beyond oncology. We believe the disconnect between the demand and supply of Women’s Health innovations presents a compelling investment opportunity. - XRC sees strong potential in hormonal health, particularly menopause. 85% of women experience menopause symptoms. Although 60% of women seek clinical help, a staggering 75% of them remain untreated. We believe this unmet need has driven women to actively seek out solutions, creating a significant market opportunity. - 90% of surveyed investors plan to maintain or increase their investments in Women’s Health startups for 2024. The most important attributes investors look for are: 1) strength of the brand; and 2) clinical studies. Thanks to our participants: Daniel Faierman at Habitat Partners, Odile Roujol at Fab Co-Creation Studio Ventures, Rana Taghdisi Argenio & Nina Faulhaber at Palette Ventures, Kirsty Macdonald at JamJar Investments, Jun Deng PhD at Joyance Partners, Clementine Provost at Unilever Ventures, Maria D. Toler at SteelSky Ventures & Josie Buck at Venrex.

I am genuinely intrigued by this topic and appreciate that there is some common thinking on the future. I predict that we will see elevated drug/skincare solutions being marketed and distributed differently and that there will finally be a broader destination to receive more mainstream injectables and procedures along with a drug-type product assortment to support these services. What are your thoughts on the topic? Always appreciate being given the opportunity to weigh in with an engaged community of experts Rich Gersten, Sonya Brown, Sarah Woelfel, Jeremy Triefenbach, Emily Bullman, Andrew Shore, Tina Henry Bou-Saba, Odile Roujol, Michele Miyakawa Thank you Rachel Brown & Beauty Independent for the opportunity to join in the conversation. #sciencematters #beautyinvesting #strategy #aesthetics
