Tal’s passion for accessibility, approachability, and a fondness for technicolor all feature in her body of work.

The second image is a serum bottle being submerged under a stream of tap water. The bottle is dark blue, with the same lines as the jar. This time, it reads “Re-lax, Blue Algae Night Serum.” Lastly, a dark green squeeze tube of “Re-fresh Kelp Face Wash” sits on a shallow pool of sandy water.
