How We Turned Our Skin Struggles into a Business
We grew up in Palm Springs - a place that feels like skincare bootcamp. The desert is beautiful, but the sun is brutal, the air is bone-dry, and our skin was constantly in crisis. Add in hormonal acne, and you’ve got the perfect recipe for years of frustration (and way too many products that didn’t live up to their promises).
If you’ve ever stood in front of a mirror wondering why nothing is working, we get it. That was us for most of our teens.
From Frustration to Curiosity
The turning point came when we realized the desert itself held the answers. Desert plants are extremophiles - they’ve adapted to survive some of the harshest conditions on earth. Aloe, prickly pear, jojoba -they all thrive where most things can’t.
So why couldn’t those same plants help our skin do the same?
That question became the spark. We were struggling with the exact same thing, and together we decided to stop chasing “holy grail” products and create something that actually worked for us.
Building 760 Skin
We started small. Researching ingredients. Testing formulas. Dreaming up packaging that felt like Palm Springs - neon green against mid-century minimalism. Everything about 760 had to reflect where we came from: clean, effective, and a little desert-glam.
What began as three girls trying to fix their skin turned into skincare line rooted in our story. A moisturizer that hydrates without the heaviness. A lip balm that can handle desert air and LA traffic. Skincare that’s as simple as it is effective.
What We’ve Learned So Far
Community is everything. This brand started with friends and grew because of people who believed in us.
Transparency matters. No fluff; no fifty-step routines. Just formulas that do what they say.
Simple > complicated. The best skincare is the kind you’ll actually use every day.
It’s more than skin. Skincare can be about confidence, identity, and feeling like yourself again.
Why This Story Matters
The truth is, 760 Skin didn’t start in a boardroom - it started in a desert bedroom with three girls who just wanted to feel good in their own skin.
That’s still the heart of everything we do. If you’ve ever felt lost in your routine or let down by products that overpromise, know that 760 was built for you.
What started as our biggest insecurity became the foundation for our dream business. And that’s the beauty of it!
