L.A.-favorite premium matcha company Ashu’s and science-led skin care brand Symbiome have partnered on a limited-release matcha mask bringing the healing power of green tea to the face.
Established in Malibu in 2024, Ashu’s prioritizes high-grade, small-batch, thoughtfully-sourced Japanese matcha. Founded in San Francisco in 2017, Symbiome is known for its minimalist, science-first formulas and celebrity following, namely Kate Hudson, who started off as a loyal customer before officially joining the team in 2023 as Creative Advisor. “Almost immediately after I started using Symbiome skincare, I could see and feel the difference,” said Hudson upon her switch from consumer to partner.
