Not sure if you’re familiar but U Beauty is a sustainable luxury skincare brand that was founded by fashion influencer and skincare pioneer, Tina Chen Craig (formerly @bagsnob) in 2019. When Tina was inspired to create U Beauty, she wasn’t just propelled by a need to streamline her routine, optimize her skincare and cut down on cosmetic confusion. She was motivated to minimize her environmental impact and help others do the same by designing a brand as sustainable as it is effective. Now, this female-founded and -operated company boasts a team that is 100% female with each member possessing a unified mission: to replace excess with essence, make ethical luxury the new norm and offer products that enhance rather than dominate. 
U Beauty knows that it’s not just about the results of the product; it’s about how the product is produced, and the activated intentions behind it. The brand donates one dollar for every unique U Beauty order to One Tree Planted, all their products are manufactured in a 100% CO2-free facility, and they keep the lights on with 100% green energy – electricity facilitated via renewable sources. Each one of their bottles is made of recycled plastics, the packaging and bottles are recyclable and our formulas are made in Italy where they adhere to EU cosmetic law and the strict exclusion of over 1,300 substances so they are always clean, vegan, non-GMO, gluten-free, non-toxic and free of fillers.Currently, the brand boasts three incredible products (all available at Holt Renfrew and TheUBeauty.com):
The Resurfacing Compound is the cult-classic serum that started it all! Engineered to visibly resurface the skin’s appearance without irritation, the compound multitasks to brighten, resurface, renew, tighten, equalize and defend skin in one simple, skin-nourishing step. Smoother, brighter and revitalized-looking skin begins to emerge within only 3-6 days. Unlike most skincare formulas that release actives all over the skin, the compound features a patent-pending SIREN capsule technology that lures free radicals to it like a magnet. When the free radical and SIREN capsule meet, the free radical becomes neutralized, and key anti-aging actives (e.g., stable retinol, peptides, vitamin C, hyaluronic acid and antioxidants) penetrate the skin’s most vulnerable areas.
The award-winning SUPER Hydrator is a luxurious and intuitive moisturizer that hydrates and resolves compromised barrier functionality where the skin needs it the most. Featuring our signature SIREN Capsule Technology and the brand-new, patent-pending HYDRA-SIREN Capsule, The SUPER Hydrator™ delivers anti-aging ingredients strictly where the skin needs it, with maximized efficiency, to expedite visible repair and hydration and provide skin with a radiant glow.
Just launched in February 2021, The Sculpt Arm Compound is a revolutionary concentrate designed specifically to visibly tighten skin and counteract the negative effects of gravity – basically like Spanx for your arms! Like all U Beauty offerings, The SCULPT is powered by the brand’s patent-pending SIREN Capsule technology to immediately deliver visible contouring to areas of the skin that need it most.
