Biography
Having obtained a GeoPhysics Masters Degree from University College London, Kit is R&D Director of JooMo Ltd., inventors of the world's first ever 100% truly natural and preservative free face wash. His pioneering research into the skin microbiome is leading the way for the industry. His discovery of the first ever mechanism to test the health of skin due to the diversity of microbes present has allowed him for the first time to begin to answer the question "Are synthetic ingredients in modern cosmetics causing the skin allergy epidemic in the western world?". As a follow-up to this, he published the findings of a pan-European project in February 2018, detailing the effects certain cosmetics products had on the skin. His aim, along with JooMo's, is to revolutionise the industry into a research-led, health preserving one.
