Stratia
Stratia was founded in 2017 by self-taught formulator Alli Reed, who built the brand around peer-reviewed dermatological research. While the brand is young, its formulations are unusually well-referenced for an indie, and Liquid Gold specifically is built on the Peter Elias barrier-lipid studies from the 1990s–2000s.
