Experiment's Lisa Guerrera and Emmy Ketcham on creating a brand for the 'nerdy, smart girl who ends up being cool in adulthood'
Manage episode 439520132 series 2539722
Lisa Guerrera and Emmy Ketcham, co-founders of Experiment, met in 2019 at an event for the Sephora Accelerate program, which Guerrera participated in with her first business.
Together, they soft-launched their skin-care brand in 2020 with a lime-green silicone sheet mask. Since then, the brand has grown to include products including a glycerin-based hydrating serum, a “micro-slugging” oil gel and a lip balm. Its first cleanser will launch in a few weeks.
In April, Experiment announced a $3.3 million seed round, led by Greycroft.
On this week’s episode of the Glossy Beauty Podcast, the duo discusses how they launched the company with $8,500, why theirs is a brand for the “nerdy, smart girl" and why science ultimately beat out "clean" beauty.
