About Philip Montgomery

Phil Montgomery is a professional biochemist and adjunct professor. His love for skin chemistry led to a career in natural products and cosmetic chemistry, where he has been active for more than a decade. By isolating natural molecules from plants and plant sources, powerful additives for effective body care products become available. Phil focuses on "natural" cosmetics, where the starting material comes from vegetable and plant biomass. This is a more responsible use of the world's petroleum reserves, and assures that the products he develops rely on renewable feedstock. He also has an interest in "green" chemistry, where a chemical process can be changed to use less toxic ingredients/reaction conditions, with less hazardous waste produced.
