Well, hello, hello, guys, you're listening to Beauty Bites with Dr. K, Secrets of a Plastic

Surgeon, and it's time for a podcast.

You guys are going to be so thrilled this week on the podcast.

We have the fabulous and famous Jan Marini, who is a skincare icon.

Welcome, Jan.

Thank you.

That's so kind of you, and I so look forward to this. Amazing. Well, for people who

don't know who you are and who the Jan Marini brand is, tell us a little bit about what defines you

and your brand and what you've been up to. Well, I've been a product researcher for well over 40 years.

You know, back in the early days, I was an ingredient

expert. And I used to do a lot of lecturing to physicians and medical professionals and skincare

professionals. And I did a lot of radio and television. But as time went on, I began to develop

association with physicians and researchers literally all over the world. And I started to focus more and more on uncovering, identifying, breakthrough technologies.

And probably one of the things that I became very well known for is that I was a glycolic

acid pioneer in the early to mid-80s.

And I will tell you, you couldn't walk into a department store or a drug store and get

glycolyic acid. you could get it for cleaning

stains off your driveway.

Oh, really?

And then around 1989, going into 1990, I financed and brought to market two product lines,

and I'm going back a lot of years.

So a lot of people may not remember this, but MD formulations and MD Forte.
