Mother Science (18)

​Mother Science is a biotech skincare brand founded in 2021 by Mike Einziger, guitarist of Incubus, and his wife Ann Marie Simpson-Einziger, a violinist with a background in biology. The brand emerged from their personal experience when Ann Marie developed a skin condition that led to lightened patches. This prompted them to investigate the underlying cause and its potential applications for skincare. Their research led to the discovery of malassezin, a naturally occurring molecule found on the skin, which they identified as a potent antioxidant and effective in reducing hyperpigmentation. Mother Science's flagship product, the Molecular Hero Serum, harnesses this ingredient to target dark spots and improve skin texture. The brand emphasizes clean, clinical, and vegan formulations, free from harmful additives. Mother Science has garnered attention for its innovative approach, securing funding from investors like Dropbox's Drew Houston and Paul Mitchell's John Paul DeJoria. ​ Show Less
