Garance Doré is the founder of the skincare line Doré, which launched in May 2022. Born in Corsica, Garance grew up dipping in and out of the sea and running wild through nature. She established her career, and creative spirit, in Paris before moving to New York to become internationally recognized for her illustrations, street-style photographs, and writing.

Garance has returned to her French roots and has merged her love of simplicity and nature with a desire to deliver clean, gentle, and effective Made-in-France skin care for everyone. This newest iteration of Doré was born because Garance believes, "life isn’t meant to be spent in front of a mirror."

In this episode, Nada sits with Garance to discuss her journey from fashion influencer and blogger to skincare company founder and writer. Garance holds nothing back and opens up about her struggle with anxiety and depression. From sharing her news on social media to her refusal to be defined by the experience, she is candid and accessible at every turn. Garance also talks about the gift of having a soulful outlet separate from her business and the power of setting boundaries.
