Mia’s Path: From Cosmetics to Chemistry

Mia’s early interest in cosmetics set her on an unconventional path. While many find their calling in aesthetic or artistic aspects of makeup, Mia was drawn to the science behind the beauty. This unique fascination led her to pursue and attain a PhD in Organic Materials Chemistry. Her journey has been vital to the essence of Dr. Berrettini's Mendocino Minerals. Each product we offer is a direct result of Mia’s unique blend of scientific knowledge and passion for cosmetics, ensuring our line not only stands out for its uniqueness but also for its scientific foundation and excellence.
