Lauren Bowker has spent much of her career turning science fiction into beauty products. Now, the founder of The Unseen Beauty is taking that ambition beyond Earth itself through a new line of lip balms under her newly launched EXIST skincare brand that has been developing their products -- in space.
The material innovator and creative scientist has unveiled Spacelip, a lip balm developed using biotechnology linked to research conducted aboard the International Space Station.
Rather than positioning the launch as another skincare essential, Bowker describes it as an experiment in what beauty can become when it intersects with space science.
