471: The Skin Habits That Matter More Than Expensive Skincare + How to Keep Your Collagen with Olivia Boyd-Smith

Olivia Boyd-Smith is the founder of Par Olive, an ingestible skincare company developed alongside dermatologists and longevity physicians with a focus on supporting skin health from within. Before launching the brand, Olivia spent years as a beauty and wellness writer, giving her a unique perspective on what actually works—and what simply sounds good. Today, Par Olive is carried by leading dermatology clinics and built around clinically backed ingredients, rigorous sourcing, and a science-first philosophy.
