“When it comes to chemicals, I’m an industry professional, so avoiding hazardous products on store shelves is a no brainer for me. That’s not enough anymore. Now I’m on a mission to raise chemical awareness and literacy so you can make informed, health-conscious decisions about the products you bring into your home.”
-M. Robinson Garcia

A cosmetic chemist and Philly native, Marquita Robinson-Garcia surprised her coworkers and family when she left her managerial role with Dow-DuPont, a global raw material supplier, in 2017. Having spent over a decade climbing the ladder in the chemicals industry - with a focus on beauty care, she was at the peak of her career, servicing brands like Chanel, NARS and bareMinerals. By 2019 she opened the doors to her own studio lab, DVINITI skin care, with a transformative approach to retail beauty— all ingredients would be 100% natural, all products would be 100% customizable, and the objective would focus 100% on enhancing consumer education and experience to personalize skin care.
Purpose: Why do we provide cosmetic chemistry workshops?
“At DVINITI, we are pioneering the future of sustainable beauty and cosmetics through the DVINITI skin care mission to INFORM - EMPOWER - CREATE. Our philosophy is rooted in teaching individuals how to care for their skin to feel beautiful and live well in their bodies. We encourage students to relate their internal chemistry to their environment, helping to connect the dots of what they learn in the classroom to real world experiences and applications. Our workshops cultivate a safe environment for innovative and creative thought processes that encourage critical thinking skills and problem solving - lifelong skills that enhance our academic and professional future! ” says Robinson-Garcia.
The workshops will cover content directly from her guide, The Sustainable Beauty, where she invites you on a journey of self-discovery, helping you to interpret cosmetic ingredients like a pro. “I have enjoyed much success in the beauty industry, thanks to my chemistry background and training.
