That's Derm Good! Dr. Zehra Murthy's Natural Skincare Journey

That's Derm Good! Featuring Dr. Zehra Murthy
We’re thrilled to announce that Belfiore Herbal and our founder, Dr. Zehra Murthy, were recently featured on the It’s Derm Good podcast! As a pioneer in natural, plant-based skincare, Dr. Murthy shared her expertise and passion for harnessing the power of clean, botanical ingredients to promote healthy, radiant skin. With her extensive background in cellular and molecular biology, Dr. Murthy explained how Belfiore Herbal’s formulations go beyond surface-level care, addressing skin health at a deeper, cellular level—all without the adverse effects of synthetic chemicals.

The Importance of Healthy Skin
Dr. Murthy emphasizes that the skin is the body's largest organ, and maintaining its health is crucial for enhancing inner beauty and confidence. She highlights the risks of conventional skincare products, which often contain synthetic chemicals that may harm the skin, mutate genes, or cause long-term damage. In contrast, her formulations focus on the natural benefits of plant-based ingredients.

Key Ingredients in Belfiore Herbal Products
Dr. Murthy’s formulations include clean, plant-based ingredients such as:

• Lavender
• Turmeric
• Sunflower oil
• Vitamins A and C
• Calendula
• Ashwagandha
• Shea butter

These ingredients are chosen for their ability to nourish and support the skin naturally.

A Commitment to Clean, Ethical Skincare
Dr. Murthy's dedication to avoiding synthetic chemicals and animal-derived products stems from her scientific expertise and ethical values. Her formulations use physiologic oils that nourish the skin rather than simply sitting on its surface.

Beyond product formulation, she prioritizes ethical sourcing. For instance, she sources shea butter from women farmers in Ghana and reinvests 20% of profits to support these communities. This approach promotes sustainability and empowers women in agriculture.
