Meet the founders and directors

Hi. We’re Gail and Gareth.

Let’s face it, there are countless memberships out there on everything from nutrition to business, cosmetics to exercise.

Here’s another truth: Not all memberships are equal.

You might have experienced disappointment with past memberships, where content quality fell short, relying on dubious guest experts or providing subpar Zoom recordings and worksheets.

Our Club offers a different experience.

Our experienced scientists, who have worked with leading skincare and haircare brands, bring their expertise to the Club, providing industry-quality formulations at a fraction of the cost.

In our Club, you’ll advance your formulation skills while building a valuable library of up-to-date, accurate resources. Our unique credit system lets you choose your learning path, and our live forums and Tutor Q&A sessions offer direct access to our experts.

We can’t wait to welcome you!
