Going deeper than the skin

BEHIND THE STUDIO DOOR

with Valentina Hernandez
Founder + Chief Brand Officer of Sana Skin Studio in Miami, FL

How did Sana Skin Studio come to life?

From my teenage years to early adulthood,my skin was always an experiencefilled with the occasional highs and theusual lows. I longed for a support systemthat could help me quit the guessinggame and guide me to better understandmy skin needs. After findingout all my favorite products I had beenusing for over 15+ years were filledwith harmful endocrine disruptors andtoxins, I craved a beauty industry thatsupported my health and wellbeing.That’s where Sana came in. I married mylove for skincare with the purpose andpassion for clean beauty and wellbeing.
