Today’s guest is a gem. He’s just a gem. And I’ve really never used that phrase before but I couldn’t think of any better way to introduce Chris Cieri, the founder of Franklin and Whitman, the instagram-famous plant-based, paraben and cruelty free skin care company you might already be familiar with. You know that song: “started from the bottom now we here?” Well Chris’ version might as well be “started with a beard now we here” because that’s really the story of how his passion-project-turned-second-job exploded onto the natural skin care scene. Just like Chris is blown away by the response to his handmade products, I was blown away by this conversation because we go WAY more than skin deep. Haha I love puns. We talk about morals and ethics and life and death and dogs and instagram and serums and dry shampoo and everything in between.
You’ll hear:
- Why is Franklin and Whitman is even called Franklin and Whitman (or “Frank and Whit” for short).
- The guiding principles/brand promises that Frank and Whit lives by.
- What the heck parabens are!
- The shocking way Chris learned to make all his skin care products.
- The product he’s most proud of creating.
- And so much more!
