Founded in 2020 by Dr. Alicia Zalka, a board-certified dermatologist and associate clinical professor at Yale School of Medicine, Surface Deep is an innovative personal care brand rooted in skin health. Zalka’s medical background directly informs the brand’s approach to body odor, shifting the focus from masking smells with heavy fragrances or blocking sweat ducts with aluminum to neutralizing odor-causing bacteria at the source. The brand’s signature product, the Anti-Odorant, utilizes a patent-pending blend of fruit-based glycolic acid and probiotics to lower the skin’s pH, creating an environment where bacteria cannot thrive.
