Why Bite Beauty Founder Susanne Langmuir is Banking on Waterless Beauty Next

Published: Jan. 29, 2020, 8 a.m.

Today we\u2019re speaking to Bite Beauty founder and serial entrepreneur Susanne Langmuir. As a product development guru, Langmuir succeeded where others couldn\u2019t, creating bright, poppy shades that could measure up to the M.A.C\u2019s and the NARS\u2019 of the world, in earth-friendly formulas \u2013 and don\u2019t forget the brand\u2019s best-selling Agave Lip Mask that beauty editors stocked up on by the tube.\xa0

In this episode, we\u2019ll update you on how Bite Beauty\u2019s parent company, Sephora-backed Kendo Beauty, is ushering in a new, all-vegan era following Susanne\u2019s departure from the company over two years ago. Then, Susanne fills us in on her next, forward-thinking act: waterless beauty. You\u2019ll meet the debut product, aN-hydra The Powder of Youth No. 1, a water-activated microbiome cleansing powder that harnesses rice powder and pomegranate enzymes to slough away dead skin cells without stripping away \u201cgood\u201d bacteria. (Plus, we weigh in with our personal review!)

Find out what Susanne envisions a waterless beauty routine could look like in the not too distant future, and why \u2018waterless\u2019 is so key to shrinking our vanity footprint. But first, we\u2019ll take you way back to before Bite Beauty even existed, to some of the inspiring entrepreneur\u2019s first steps \u2013 and missteps \u2013\xa0 into the wide world of beauty.
