Martha Stewart Unveils 'Bigger' Comeback After Warning Meghan Markle: 'It Will Be Just Brilliant'
The OG lifestyle influencer, who has over six decades of career under her belt, recently announced a new venture to the delight of fans.
However, the big news comes just days after Stewart made a subtle dig at Meghan Markle's foray into the lifestyle industry.
Martha Stewart Launches Skincare Brand At 84
Over the weekend, Stewart turned a new age, and with it came a huge reveal for her customers and fanbase. In an Instagram post to mark the milestone, the businesswoman promised a "bigger" surprise.
The birthday girl shared a photo of herself holding an elm plant alongside a note. "Happy Birthday, Martha! Thank you for planting the earliest seeds of Elm with such care, clarity, and vision," it read.
In the accompanying caption, Stewart gushed, "A little birthday surprise today. And a bigger one for all of you tomorrow." True to her words, the next day, the Martha Stewart Living owner unveiled her personal skincare brand named after the unique plant, Elm Biosciences.
The 84-year-old shared a photo of herself and dermatologist Dr. Dhaval Bhanusali holding the luxury products with the caption:
"After 5 years of working behind the scenes, hundreds of prototypes, and endless hours of research—we can't wait to finally share @elmbiosciences with you all."
A Look At Martha Stewart's Skincare Brand
According to the Wall Street Journal, Stewart partnered with Dr. Bhanusali, known for his work on Hailey Bieber's best-selling Rhode Beauty.
The product line, described as "intentional skincare for living well and aging well," comprises a two-part regimen with a serum and an oral supplement.
With ingredients like hyaluronic acid and squalane in the serum and botanical extracts in the supplement, Elm Biosciences products target extending the life of skin cells. Stewart has yet to announce the price range, but it is set for release on September 17.
Fans Praise Martha Stewart's Product Launch
Given Stewart's extensive experience in the business world, the news of her skincare brand was met with praise from fans. Many believe it will be exceptional compared to other celebrity brands.
"Huge congratulations! It will be just brilliant, I'm sure," one fan wrote.
"I'll have whatever you're using. You look great, Martha," a second comment read.
"Yes!!! I've been waiting for this and knew that someday you were going to create a skincare line!!! Congrats!" a third fan added.
"On board with anything you do," this fourth user declared.
'The Martha Stewart Show' Host Is Proud Of Her 'Fabulous' Skin
While chatting with WSJ, the famous octogenarian opened up about why she chose to get involved in the skincare industry.
"I've been interested in good skin, oh, I think, ever since I was a child," she answered. "And, you know, everybody remarks on my skin. It makes me very happy."
Part of the secret to Stewart's plump skin, even at 84, is her new Elm Biosciences products, which she admitted to using regularly. "I have used it religiously for quite a while now, and my skin is pretty fabulous," she gushed.
Explaining what sets her brand apart, Stewart noted she particularly focused on the texture, color, and scent of the serum to make it stand out from other perfumed counterparts.
Despite crediting her product for flawless skin, the entrepreneur confessed to doing "touch-up" procedures. "I do what I call touch-ups. So, a little filler. We've been working with a little collagen in my cheeks," Stewart shared.
She also admitted to doing Botox on her chin and neck.
Martha Stewart Hopes Meghan Markle Knows What She Is Doing
Stewart's product announcement comes shortly after she finally shared her thoughts on Markle's newly launched As Ever lifestyle brand.
As The Blast reported, when asked about her opinion, the former convict answered that she doesn't really know the Duchess of Sussex. "I hope she knows what she's talking about," she remarked.
Stewart's supposed lack of faith in Markle stems from her belief that experience is the best teacher.
"Authenticity, to me, is everything, and to be authentic and knowledgeable about your subject matter is extremely important," she explained.

Carlos Prates hasn't quit smoking, but says it won't stop him from being the first to KO Geoff Neal in the UFC
Carlos Prates is one of the more unique characters on the Fighting Nerds' team, which says a lot. The Brazilian welterweight contender has been a thrilling finisher throughout his UFC run, but was met with some resistance in his latest Octagon appearance. He'll get a chance to right the ship when he meets Geoff Neal in Chicago at UFC 319 on Saturday. The unanimous decision loss to Ian Machado Garry in UFC Kansas City's main event forced Prates to reevaluate his approach to fights, and maybe more so, how he executes his game plans. It was his first time going beyond the third round in his 28-fight career, and despite his questionable, but admitted love of smoking cigarettes, Prates didn't feel overly slowed or tired by the 25-minute mark. Regardless, don't expect the Fighting Nerds slugger to break his habit, as he still smokes roughly eight cigarettes daily. "Sometimes I start to smoke a little bit less, but it's hard," Prates said Monday on Uncrowned's "The Ariel Helwani Show." "I get really excited, and I want to eat. I cannot eat pizza all day, so I prefer to smoke rather than have some problem with making weight. "I like to smoke before I go to the stadium. We cannot smoke in the locker room. Smoke before, then I go there." Prates can be commended for attempting to live a healthier lifestyle, but the cigarettes have yet to affect his performances. From an in-fight perspective, Prates believes that his recent lessons taught him to adapt and shift his speed. If he wants to be a champion, that might mean toning down his violent intentions. "The way I think to win the fight [might change]," Prates said. "On the level we are right now, the really high level, some small mistakes make a difference at the end of the fight. So it's time to sometimes think less about entertaining and more about winning. Not go for knockouts, you know what I mean? It's not only about bonuses. I want to finish the fight the way it's going to bring me a bonus. First, a win bonus is really nice. Getting the win is most important. I think it's changed a little bit in my mind." Prates' improvements will be tested by his next opponent Neal. Initially, the matchup was supposed to come at UFC 314 in April. Unfortunately for Neal, he was forced out of the bout for undisclosed reasons, which bumped Prates into his headliner opposite Garry at UFC Kansas City. Prates will have his hands full with his fellow striker in Neal. "Hands of Stone" has given some of the division's best all they can handle while staying relevant in his own right. Although Neal lives up to his moniker, he's also a durable foe with no knockout losses in the UFC. For Prates, Neal's history of avoiding knockouts adds a little extra motivation. "I'm really good at knocking people out who have never been knocked out before," Prates said. "I won the belt off the biggest show in Brazil, and I knocked out the guy. He was southpaw, so I'm really good fighting against southpaws, and he was never knocked out, and I was the first to knock him out. When I fought Li Jingliang, he was never knocked out in his career, not only UFC. I was the first one. Saturday night, I'm going to be the first one to knock Geoff Neal out for the first time in the UFC. "Nothing personal against him, it's just because it's the way I like to fight. I'm a striker and I like to knock people out. ... I know how to do that, that's my best."
