Katy Cottam is the Founder of Luna Daily, the body care brand for all skin, even the most intimate. In this episode we debunk 'feminine hygiene' myths and discuss how we can change the conversations around women's health.

Intimate areas are only considered when there is a problem
After a successful career in the beauty industry, Katy gave up her ‘dream job’ in the pandemic to set up Luna Daily. Inspired by her own experiences as a teenager, after an intense course of antibiotics impacted her gut and skin microbiome and caused her to have thrush. Unable to use traditional body care products, she was forced to use so-called ‘feminine hygiene’ products which created lasting feelings of shame and embarrassment. 15 years later, working at the heart of the beauty industry, Katy could see no progress had been made. She knew something had to change, so with the help of expert dermatologists and gynecologists (the Collective), Luna Daily was born.
