Personalized Skincare, Simplified: The ERLY Story with Co-Founder Dr. Hallie McDonald
ERLY was founded by two friends and mothers—dermatologist Dr. Hallie McDonald and Jamie Chandlee—who saw firsthand the rising pressure their daughters faced from the overwhelming beauty industry. With a flood of trendy products and unrealistic standards, they knew something had to change. Hallie, in her dermatology practice, was increasingly treating young patients suffering from the side effects of harsh skincare fads. Together, they launched ERLY: a clean, effective, and gentle skincare line designed to nurture, not harm. ERLY’s customizable system empowers users to mix targeted serums into their moisturizers, creating simple routines that meet individual skin needs. Rooted in early sun protection and barrier support, ERLY champions feeling good in your skin without the noise. Their mission is clear: strip away the pressure, keep it clean, and help everyone glow a little earlier.
In this episode, Dr. Hallie McDonald also discusses:
- The damage trendy skincare products were causing and how she set out to do better
- Why less is more when it comes to skincare
- How to build confidence and good habits early
- The importance of peptides and how they’re safe, yet effective
- The ability to customize your skincare with their mixing tool
