Press & Brand Overview

Brand Overview

Naked Molecule is a science-led skincare brand founded by two high school educators specializing in chemistry and forensic science. The brand was created to challenge over-formulated skincare by focusing on ingredient restraint, molecular behavior, and function-first formulation.

Rather than following trends, Naked Molecule applies classroom-level chemical reasoning to skincare—prioritizing clarity, compatibility, and performance over marketing noise.

Founder Background

Naked Molecule was founded by two former high school teachers with professional backgrounds in chemistry and forensic science. Their work required precision, evidence-based decision making, and a deep understanding of how materials behave at a molecular level.

That same methodology now informs every formulation choice: fewer ingredients, purposeful composition, and an emphasis on how compounds interact with skin rather than how they are marketed.

Formulation Philosophy

Naked Molecule formulations are built using an ingredient-first, minimalist approach.

Each ingredient must justify its presence based on function and compatibility. The brand avoids unnecessary fillers, fragrance masking, and trend-driven additives, focusing instead on hydration, skin barrier support, and long-term skin function.

The goal is not complexity, but precision.

Product Focus

Simple Serum No.1

A minimalist hydration-focused facial serum designed to support skin moisture and barrier function through carefully selected, skin-compatible ingredients.

No fragrance.

No filler ingredients.

No trend layering.
