Famed Los Angeles-based tattoo artist Dr. Woo recently put his spin on skincare, launching Woo Skin Essentials. “Our brand was created for all skin types, with a specific focus on ensuring our clean formulas had extra benefits for those with tattoos or without,” he explains. Drawing from Woo’s decades of tattoo expertise — his clients include A-listers Justin Bieber and Zoë Kravitz — the products are simple, clean and healing. The line, which is minimalist yet effective, includes coconut oil-based cleansing soap, shea butter-based moisturizer and a hydrating lip balm infused with Japanese mint, yuzu and cherry blossom essences. “We’re really excited about the path forward for this brand,” Dr. Woo shares. “We’ve just extended our line into sun protection and are working on additional skincare innovation, focused on clean, everyday usage.”
