Summary
In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta interviews Elisa Park and Regina Roucourt, co-founders of Regelica, a skincare brand rooted in both Korean and Eastern European influences. With a shared passion for skincare that began while working together in a gaming company, Elisa and Regina have crafted Regelica to merge the best of Eastern and Western skincare philosophies, focusing on gentle yet effective ingredients.
The duo shares the inspiration behind Regelica, where Korean skincare principles of collagen preservation meet Western approaches to boosting collagen production. This fusion led to their star product, the Mandelic and Edelweiss Renewal Serum, known for its gentle yet powerful exfoliating benefits that suit a wide range of skin types. They also discuss the brand’s innovative use of bakuchiol as a natural, irritation-free alternative to retinol and highlight their Microbiome and Vitamin C Immunity Support Essence, a Korean-inspired formula that nurtures the skin’s barrier and enhances hydration.
Elisa and Regina emphasize the importance of cultural diversity in skincare, and how their differing backgrounds and perspectives allow them to create products that appeal to a wide audience. For aspiring entrepreneurs, they advise approaching the industry with curiosity and a willingness to innovate. Regelica’s journey exemplifies how blending cultural insights with scientific research can lead to products that cater to diverse skin needs, embodying a truly holistic approach to skincare.

| 0:00.0 | Hey guys, welcome back to another episode of Skin Anarchy. This is your host, Dekta. I'm really excited to introduce you guys to a new brand today. I'm going to be hosting both of the co-founders, but I think it's really important to find options that are rooted in different cultures, and I think that's really what attracts me to the brand that we're going to be hosting today and learning a little bit about the blend of, I guess, |
| 0:20.9 | different cultures coming together and creating such a beautiful line. So without further ado, |
| 0:25.5 | I want to introduce you guys to co-founders of Regalica Skin Care. Alisa and Regina are here with us. |
| 0:30.9 | Welcome to the show, guys. I'm so excited to host you. Thank you for having us, Ekta. It's such an |
| 0:35.5 | honor to be here today. This isiza park and this is regina so nice |
| 0:40.6 | to meet you we're so proud that we've been selected for your podcast yeah it's wonderful it's wonderful |
| 0:47.5 | for me to be hosting you thank you for the opportunity and i really love your products and i i think |
| 0:52.6 | they're so wonderful because they're gentle but really |
| 0:54.9 | effective and I can't wait to dive into that. But what, if you don't mind my asking, what led you |
| 0:59.7 | guys to create the brand if you can walk us down memory lane a little bit? Sure, Rizina and I and I |
| 1:06.0 | actually met while working at a gaming company which had nothing to do with skincare, but we both had shared |
| 1:12.7 | the passion for it. We really enjoyed working together, and over time, we became close friends. |
| 1:19.0 | Regina is from Eastern Europe, and I'm from Korea, so we have very different skin types, |
| 1:24.1 | with Regina having Slavic skin and me having Asian skin. So having very different |
| 1:29.3 | skin types, Regina often complimented me on my Asian skin joking that Asians don't seem to age. |
| 1:36.3 | And I've heard it from other people commenting similar things like it's hard to tell their age by their looks or Asians look so much more than their age and so on. |
| 1:46.7 | So this difference and this type of comments intrigued us to dig deeper to discover the science behind Asian skin. |
| 1:55.2 | So we decided to reach out to one of top Korean skincare labs and what we learned was so interesting. |
| 2:02.6 | A skin morphology research found that Asian skin has a thicker dermis with high collagen level, |
| 2:09.6 | which makes it more resistant to wrinkles and sagging. |
| 2:13.6 | That's why Korean and Asian skincare products heavily focused on skin barrier reinforcing formula |
| 2:20.3 | to preserve their collagen level rather than boosting collagen. |
