What's Your Skincare Routine with LeAura Luciano

Have you ever thought about what is actually in your shower routine, not just your products, but the tools, materials, and where it all ends up? This episode features Phoebe Yu, founder of Floofah, a plastic-free, fully compostable shower loofah brand that is reimagining one of the most overlooked tools in our daily lives.We explore her journey from Silicon Valley and the recycling industry to launching Floofah after realizing that her own plastic shower poufs were non-recyclable, shedding microplastics, and adding to long-term landfill waste. We also break down what greenwashing actually looks like in real life, from plant-based and recyclable products where facilities exist, to products that are still mostly plastic, and why consumer trust in sustainable branding is so fragile.We also get into what composting actually means in practice, including the difference between industrial and backyard composting, why some compostable plastics like PLA are considered junk food for compost systems, and how to read labels without feeling like you need to throw everything out and start overIf trying to live more sustainably has ever left you feeling overwhelmed, this conversation will help you spot greenwashing, zoom out, and make more mindful choices that fit into real life, not a perfect oneYou will hearThe moment Phoebe realized her plastic loofah was part of the microplastics problemWhat most people misunderstand about recyclable and compostable labelsWhy oral care and kitchen tools might matter even more than what is on your bathroom shelfHow looking to nature and time-tested materials can upgrade your routine without a full lifestyle overhaulMentionedFloofah: www.floofah.comFloofah on Instagram and TikTok @tryfloofah

If you’ve ever skipped a workout because of your hair, this episode is for you. I’m chatting with SWAIR co-founders Carrie Sporer and Meredith Krill about how marathon training, Equinox classes, and years of ducking out early for the showers led them to invent Showerless Shampoo—a non-aerosol, alcohol-free alternative to dry shampoo that actually cleans sweaty hair in minutes.We get into their founder story, how two industry outsiders used Google and contract labs to build a beauty brand, and why SWAIR’s time-saving, multitasking formulas are a game-changer for active women. They also break down their personal skincare routines, wellness habits, and how they balance fitness with beauty without sacrificing healthy hair.How Carrie & Meredith met marathon trainingThe “sweaty hair” pain point and Equinox shower lineFrom idea to lab: creating Showerless ShampooBootstrapping, PR, and getting into Vogue, Glamour & AllureHow SWAIR changed their relationship with fitness and beautyLearn more & shop: SWAIR SWAIR Hair (Showerless Shampoo, Sweat Shield, Speed Mask)Follow @swairhair @leaura & @whatsyourskincareroutineSubscribe for more skincare, haircare, and wellness conversations with founders, experts, and creators.
