LAURA, FOUNDER, FUR

ABOUT FUR

Comfort and care for all types of skin and hair. 

Fur's line is created with the cleanest facial-grade, vegan, cruelty free, non-toxic ingredients that are dermatologically and gynecologically tested. They do not formulate with mineral oil, silicones, parabens, synthetic fragrances, or artificial dyes. That's why Fur is safe enough for your most intimate areas, and effective from head to toe. 

Gentle enough for pubic hair and skin, but effective from head to toe.

All of their super gentle formulas are packed with high quality ingredients to soothe and smooth skin to treat and prevent ingrowns, while softening hair and refining regrowth. Whether you shave, wax, laser, or go au naturale, Fur products play well with any haircare routine.

As mothers and childhood best friends, Laura believes in a more inclusive definition of beauty, whether you think the bush is back or skin is in. That's why Fur created effective, simple, clean, and inclusive products for the whole body, including places you used to only whisper about.

CONSISTENT RITUALS

I wake up every morning to my daughter putting my glasses and phone on my face! I spend an hour every morning with her, eating breakfast, and playing. Then I get dressed and come into the office.I spend my commute on the F train answering emails and thinking about the top three things I need to accomplish that day. That way I can come in and know I am tackling my most important challenges before I get swept up in anything that might come up.

FAVORITE WORKOUT

I love going to Pilates. Even though I’m always running late, it’s one of the only times I carve out during the week that’s just for me and my wellness! I have been seeing my instructor Shona twice a week for two years and started working with her after I had my daughter.  I was a gymnast growing up and a competitive sailor in college so working out and staying active has always been a big part of my life.

TOP 3 STRENGTHS:

1. Persistence- A no is just a not yet!
2. Problem-solving- I love figuring out creative answers to new challenges
3. Prioritizing/Delegating/Being Efficient-all moms have to figure this out quick!

TOP 3 WEAKNESSES:

1. Remembering computer passwords
2. Being late to Pilates. I’m always trying to get that last email out at the office!
3. Saying no - especially to my daughter

PRODUCT SHE CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT

Fur, obviously! I don’t have a lot of time for beauty routines anymore now that I have a daughter, so Fur Oil is great because it’s an all-purpose product. 

SUNDAY RITUALS

I love spending Sundays with my family.  We try to spend as much time as we can outside enjoying the playground.  An afternoon nap and early dinner make the perfect day!

ADVICE TO HERSELF AT 25

Trust yourself a little more—you are capable of a lot more than you think! Try not to worry so much. There’s no one right answer for anything!
