The clean skincare brand Fablerune is dedicated to skincare rooted in legacy. It focuses on recipes and botanicals passed down through generations. By using ancient ingredients proven both historically and scientifically, the brand centers around ancestral healing and wellness, taking us back to a time when people exchanged beauty secrets, recipes, knowledge, rituals, and traditions.
Both founders, Jeriel and Bobbie, share a passion for skincare, and I’m excited to talk to them today about the story behind their business.

Elaine Gong was raised in a remote region called Daliang Mountain in the southern part of the province of Sichuan in China. She excelled academically despite early hardships, including losing her father at only four years old and being raised by a single mother. After studying chemical engineering at the University of Cambridge and gaining experience at Unilever, she became passionate about skincare. This passion and a personal need for effective products led to the founding of SIMPLY THIS. She partnered with her husband and focused on creating high-quality, sustainable skincare products. The brand, emphasizing efficacy and natural ingredients, gained traction in China and recently expanded to the United States to become a significant player in the global clean beauty market.

When Jane Emma started her career journey, she certainly didn’t think she would end up in water filtration. But she was happy that she did. She got her foot in the door through her husband’s company, which had already installed many water filtration systems. Being pregnant then, she was hyper-focused on improving every aspect of her and her family’s life and making it as clean as possible. So she started her research about water and went down a rabbit hole that she’s never been able to come out of since. She became very passionate about two things: clean water and transparent and easy-to-manage water systems.

Hello and Welcome back to the Clean Beauty Show, a podcast with a mission to elevate clean and sustainable brands in the beauty, fashion, and lifestyle industry. Through thoughtful and super-authentic interviews we want to inspire you to live a cleaner and healthier lifestyle and to make the world a cleaner and better place.
My name is Doris Sherman and today I’m the new face here on the podcast. Usually, you hear Cassandra McClure on here, who is the founder of this amazing platform, but today we wanted to switch it up a little and talk about something special that’s dear and near to our heart, the Clean Beauty Collective.
With me on the podcast is, of course, Cassandra herself. And while it seems almost selfish to have the person who created all of this as an interview guest, she offers so much experience and insight in this industry, that it would be a loss to kick off this next chapter without talking to the woman who created all of this. -

We embrace women’s bodies and celebrate all shapes, sizes and ages. We believe the ideal body is yours and we’re here to help you be proud of it. We design with all #women in mind.
PowerBond™ 2.0 is proprietary next-generation technology that incorporates advanced bonding of three micro-layers of performance quality double-stretch materials – fused with print and color that will never distort or fade.
Color and pattern are a +Body design code, empowering women to feel sexy and confident about showing off their shapewear.
