Noble Panacea is making waves in the luxury skincare space, and for good reason. The niche label is the brainchild of Sir Fraser Stoddard, a world-renowned scientist who was awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 2016. Together with co-founders Celine Talabaza and Audrey Bois Nicolai, Sir Fraser has created a cutting-edge skincare brand rooted in molecular technology to deliver the best beauty results.
Launched in 2019 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, Noble Panacea is now found in Singapore after successful launches in Europe and Hong Kong. We speak with Talabaza, the company's chief executive, to find out more about the brand, its propriety technology, the Organic Super Molecule Vessel (OSMV), and what it's like working with a Nobel laureate.
Tell us about your experience in the luxury skincare industry and what drew you to join Noble Panacea.
Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working in the beauty industry for major corporations such as L'Oreal, LVMH and Unilever. This captivating field seamlessly combines my two great passions: science and art. The interplay between these elements is what continues to intrigue and inspire me. I started my career in Paris and then moved to Asia and spent six years in Singapore, a place that still feels like home, I must admit. After this, I spent a few years in New York and then moved to Zurich in Switzerland. I have worked in all categories from head to toes, in local, regional and global roles and I cherish multicultural environments.
