Beauty Through Biology™ was founded by holistic esthetician Julie Townsend after a life-changing season that completely changed the way she viewed skin, health, and beauty. Following the loss of her family's home in the Dixie Fire, Julie found herself searching for healing in more ways than one. During her first Osmosis facial, everything clicked. She realized healthy skin wasn't simply about finding better skincare products—it was about supporting the biology underneath them.

Today, Julie is the founder of Tulle & Terrace Skin Co., where she helps women achieve healthier skin through a biology-first approach that combines strategic skincare with nourishment, movement, sleep, stress management, and lifestyle. Her work is rooted in the belief that the skin is never separate from the body it lives on.

Julie believes modern women have been taught to disconnect beauty from health. We've been told to buy another product, try another treatment, restrict more, sleep less, and somehow expect our skin to thrive. Meanwhile, women are more exhausted, overwhelmed, and disconnected from their health than ever before.

She believes healthy skin is a reflection of healthy biology. It responds to the food we eat, the muscle we build, the quality of our sleep, the stress we carry, the sunlight we experience, and the way we care for ourselves every day. Skincare has an important place, but it should support the body—not be expected to outwork it.

Beauty Through Biology™ exists to help women stop fighting their bodies and start supporting them. Because healthy skin isn't something we force. It's something we build.
