Republica Skin: Julissa Bermúdez Launches Skincare Line Inspired by her Caribbean Heritage

Republica Skin is a testament to Julissa’s commitment to celebrating cultural heritage through skincare. Inspired by her Dominican roots, the brand emphasizes the beauty of sensually radiant skin with clean body care formulated from natural ingredients. The philosophy behind Republica Skin is deeply rooted in the belief that our skin narrates a story of our origins, akin to the pages of history, and deserves to be preserved and treated with care.

“Obviously Caribbean skin, because of the climate, you are dewy, you are hydrated, you are glowing. And then in New York, because of the harsher climate, most months of the year, you are dry, ashy, and flaky,” she shared with our hosts on Shades of Beauty. Her journey to developing Republica Skin began with her own experimentation, as she revealed, “I literally just started ‘inventando’ all kinds of different DIY things. And I started getting compliments on my skin, so I was ‘maybe I’m onto something.'”

Republica Skin invites individuals to embrace the richness of their heritage through skincare rituals. The brand’s tagline, “Our skin tells a sweet story of our roots,” encapsulates the essence of their mission. With formulas inspired by the Dominican Republic and crafted from natural ingredients, Republica Skin aims to provide a daily body care experience that transports users to the Caribbean, offering a slice of paradise in the comfort of their own homes.

Join us in celebrating the fusion of tradition and skincare innovation as Julissa continues to leave her mark on the entertainment industry and beyond.
