SHOW NOTES:
In this episode, Sara talks with Aïda Touré, founder of Texture, a body-care skincare brand focused on “beauty beyond the face,” inspired by her own underarm discoloration and the confidence impacts she calls “emotional friction.” Aïda explains that skin is a highly sensorial organ that communicates with the brain and reflects stress, emotions, and lifestyle, so real self-care starts beyond topical products. She emphasizes basics like diet (“eat your skincare”), hydration, sleep, sunshine, and movement, and describes her underarm serum as supporting skin function by addressing odor-causing bacteria, healing irritation from shaving or waxing, and gently brightening.
