"I wanted to apply the same regime to beauty so that people can take care of their inner and outer body at the same time. Thus, Byroe strives to provide these nutritional and wellness benefits directly to the skin—and create superfood-fueled skin care products that are almost good enough to eat.

She continues, "Byroe's product development process is rooted in science, and we only select the most powerful, high-performance, salad-inspired actives with proven efficacy. The key ingredients we select are based on what people tend to have for their salad ingredients (daily/seasonal basis) and I list those ingredients, and then our R&D team and partners start testing the ingredients ... Through out all those testings, we narrow down the ingredients that are most powerful and effective."

Roe concludes, "As it is a new/starting brand with high pricing, it is hard for us to directly target massive customers; thus, subscription box brands propelled growth by sending out our full size/mini products to a massive number of people."
