The partnership is designed to enhance Estée Lauder’s ongoing research into the impact of sleep on skin health, leveraging Dr. Walker’s insights to inform the brand’s nighttime skincare research and innovation.
“My mission is to educate as many people as possible on the fundamental importance of sleep for our overall health,” said Dr. Walker, an author, sleep scientist, and professor of neuroscience and psychology at the University of California, Berkeley.
“I’m thrilled to partner with Estée Lauder, a brand that is grounded in science, to educate their consumers around the world on the impact of sleep on mind, body and skin.”
In this role, Dr. Walker will be featured at internal and external events, press opportunities, and educational content across the brand’s channels.
Likewise, Estée Lauder will serve as the exclusive beauty partner of Dr. Walker’s newly launched Global Sleep Education Foundation, which aims to tackle the global sleep-loss epidemic through free educational programs and support for breakthrough sleep science research.
“For more than 40 years, Estée Lauder has been pioneering research into night skin science, most recently focusing on the impact that poor sleep has on skin,” added Jennifer Palmer, senior vice president, global innovation development & science leadership, Estée Lauder.
“By partnering with Dr. Walker, a renowned global sleep expert, we are able to deepen this understanding to inform how we engage, educate and inspire our consumers.”
