AUTHORITY MAGAZING: 5 Steps To Help Heal Our Country1
Dr. Shuting Hu is one of the youngest cosmetic scientists awarded by IFSCC (The International Federation of Societies of Cosmetic Chemists). Dr. Shuting Hu beat scientists from L’Oréal, Shiseido and other big brands, awarded the prestigious IFSCC Henry Maso Award for young cosmetic scientists in 2013, due to her contribution on the development of novel natural ingredients for skin health. Aiming to transfer her research into commercial value that can be appreciated by people in their daily lives, not only in publications, Dr. Hu declined faculty position offer from the university and established her own Research & Innovation center. In 2018, Dr. Hu was selected by Sephora Accelerate program as the first entrepreneur from Asia and developed her cosmeceutical brand, Acaderma.
If you could tell other young people one thing about why they should consider making a positive impact on our environment or society, like you, what would you tell them?
At Acaderma, we believe in “clean thinking”. It’s our guideline for how we act from start to finish with each process within the company. Everything we do is about how we can take better care of people and the environment. Why they should consider making a change is evident with the world’s current climate. I would tell them to always be conscious of how actions and behaviors toward people and the environment have an effect. Whether it’s good or bad, the accumulation of such will ultimately make up the world they live in. Choose the world you want to live in.
