Bedminster Native Creates Organic Skincare Company

BEDMINSTER, NJ — As a Phd Researcher and Engineer at Rutgers University, Hillsborough local and former Bedminster native, Tarek Ismaeil was always interested in skin care.

Taking his knowledge of products and ingredients on an atomic level into accounty, Ismaeil decided to dabble in creating his own skincare line.

He knew from his research at the university that castor oil inhibits inflammation but wasn’t an ingredient used in skincare products before. Ismaeil decided to try using the castor oil along with avocado oil to bring nutrients into the skin.

Ismaeil played around with the ratio of both 100 percent organic castor oil and 100 percent organic avocado oil(hexane free, cold pressed and unrefined) before settling on the perfect ratio.

“I did a prototype in my Hillsborough home and tested it on my relatives to treat puffiness under the eyes until I got the perfect consistency,” Ismaeil said.

The ratio is a secret but Ismaeil said his friends and relatives are very happy with the results.

“What makes our product unique is the choice of the two oils in addition to the perfected ratio of the two oils. Our main ingredient - Ricinoleic acid(a unique fatty acid) – exists only in the castor seed. We were fascinated by ‘Ricinoleic acid’ to the point that we used the first 4 letters in ricinoleic and placed them at the end of our company name, "Tanorici" ! Pronounced Tana-ree-see,” Ismaeil said.

Tanorici first resolves the root cause of many skin issues inflammation and second, it provides essential vitamins/antioxidants to nourish/moisturize your skin during and after the healing process, Ismaeil said.

A full detail on how Tanorici works is available for consumers on the website, www.tanoriciskincare.com or on Instagram HERE or Facebook.
