Nulastin, the science-backed hair care brand known for its Elastaplex Technology, has appointed Felipe Jimenez, PhD, as Chief Science Officer. The industry veteran will lead R&D and product innovation, bringing with him a packed resume within the personal care industry.
Formerly of Benchmark Cosmetic Laboratories (a KDC/One company) and Guthy-Renker, Jimenez boasts a track record of building out technology pipelines and intellectual property portfolios for the development of high-value medical and personal care products.
With a history of leading product development projects from concept to launch, as well as managing profitable regulatory affairs, R&D, and licensing operations, joining the Nulastin team came as a natural fit. Jimenez has spearheaded the novel technology used by the brand that supports the body's ability to anchor the hair follicle "bulb" to the scalp via the elastin root system, promoting natural hair growth with less shedding.
"This is a dream come true having Felipe as part of the Nulastin family, rounding out our C-Suite with another Hispanic industry innovator at the helm," said Leah Garcia, founder and CEO. "As a science-backed company rooted in elastin replenishment, this partnership is pure perfection."
"I've been a long-time colleague of Leah's and have admired her specialty elastin focus at Nulastin. I look forward to bringing additional ideas and advancements to the table as we continue to build out a line of revolutionary products. This is just the beginning, as we combine forces to enter new markets and technologies," says Jimenez.
With Jimenez joining the leadership team, Nulastin says it will continue to disrupt the beauty industry through "novel, clinically-proven, elastin replenishment products for lash, brow, hair and skin."
