For LA producer Brandon Shoop, mornings follow a rhythm: wake up late, shower, skincare routine, coffee, then create. We sat down with the Junior Varsity drummer and top producer to learn how he finds inspiration in mundane moments, fights creative blocks with welding and furniture building, and why his morning essentials set the foundation for his day.
Where do people—especially men—go for straightforward, effective skincare? We built the Essential Skincare Kit to answer that question. Five clean, vegan, plant-based products that create a foundation for healthy skin. No 12-step routines. No ingredients you can't pronounce. Just prevention over correction, with full transparency about what's in every formula and why it matters for long-term skin health.
COMUNE started in 2008 as pioneers bridging action sports into contemporary fashion—skate, snow, and street culture meeting contemporary design. We grew, we learned, and we evolved. COVID gave us the clarity to ask better questions: What really matters? What do people actually need? In 2023, we rebuilt around that clarity: clean skincare that works and LA-made essentials for people who embrace rawness and use it to push creative boundaries.
