Charles Mayfield is the founder of Farrow Skincare, an animal-based skincare product that does not contain fillers, additives, and other harmful chemicals. Charles became fascinated by the benefits of lard on the skin when he made the connection between the biology of humans and pigs. The origins of Farrow all started after a long day out in the July Tennessee sun. Charles decided to use some lard from his farm to protect his skin from peeling out of necessity and it wasn't until the next day that he realized his skin never peeled and his burn had vanished. At that point, Charles realized he was on to something. Now, Charles is on a mission to bring lard-based skincare to the masses and convince people to throw away their toxic skin creams. We had an amazing conversation with Charles about sun protection, the importance of taking care of your skin, building a value-first business, and the truths about the skincare industry.SPONSORS
