Melissa Bolona

Melissa Bolona is the heart and soul behind Beauty & the Broth, a game-changing beauty and wellness brand that's redefining self-care with its wholesome, USDA organic bone broth. Raised between the vibrant cultures of the United States and Peru, Melissa developed a deep love for natural beauty and creative expression from a young age.

After studying International Marketing in Paris, she chased her dreams in Hollywood, starring in over 25 films alongside some of Tinseltown's biggest names. But the glitz and glamour took a toll, leaving Melissa feeling drained, bloated, uninspired with brain fog. It was during this challenging time that she stumbled upon bone broth, thanks to a tip from her sister. And what a game-changer it was! Suddenly, Melissa found herself with more energy, better gut health, and a clearer mind. Inspired by her own transformation, she dove into her kitchen, determined to share the magic of bone broth with the world.

Driven by her entrepreneurial spirit, Melissa crafted Beauty & the Broth, a brand that delivers the nourishing goodness of bone broth in a convenient, concentrated form. Each batch is carefully sourced and meticulously crafted, ensuring top-notch quality every time. After a year of hard work and dedication, Beauty & the Broth burst onto the scene, bringing holistic healing and beauty to people everywhere. Bone broth came to save the day for Melissa again during her entrepreneur journey as it was the largest part of her mold detox protocol when she had severe mold toxicity which led her to an auto-immune disease. Melissa was able to put her autoimmunity into remission through diet. Today, Melissa calls sunny Los Angeles home, where she balances her thriving business with her love for pilates, cycling, and friendly games of chess and backgammon. With every sip of bone broth, she's reminded of the power of self-care and the joy of sharing wellness with others.
