Why I Founded SkinB5™

My vision is for everyone to feel confident and well because they have healthy acne-free skin. I know what it’s like to suffer the pain of teenage and early adulthood acne. You feel so isolated and alone. You want to hide and not show your face to the world. I founded skinB5 to help acne suffers overcome this pain, and gain their confidence again to thrive.

Today skinB5 is a global brand that offers natural easy everyday skincare treatments for healthy skin and acne control.

It took many years, but I was determined to create a highly effective acne treatment that is as natural as possible with zero nasties and had no side effects. Upon discovering a unique revolutionary, Vitamin B5 formulation, we created the foundations of skinB5 as a highly effective combination of nutritional supplement formulation and skincare products.

Since 2006, skinB5 has successfully treated thousands of acne sufferers and we have rapidly grown to become a thriving global brand.

SkinB5 is trusted by an increasing number of health professionals as a workable alternative to prescription acne medication. Unlike other mainstream acne products, skinB5 addresses underlying nutritional deficiencies and stops acne before it starts, from WITHIN.

We’ve had so many customers tell us that skinB5 products are ‘game changers’ and ‘life changers’ not only because they heal the skin, but the products also heal how people feel about their skin. I know these are strong words, but they are true. I know first-hand what it’s like to feel when you have the confidence again to show your face to the world.

I owe a lot to my grandfather. He was a chemist and manufacturer of natural skincare products. I believe I inherited his passion for traditional, nutritional medicine and creation of natural skincare products. My grandfather was incredibly wise and knowledgeable. As a young girl I was always fascinated by his creations and was constantly learning from him. Upon having my own acne challenges, I was determined to find the solution, in the way he would have done – by caring for the whole body.

Today, skinB5 has won many awards and recognised widely. We sell all over the world. I feel that somehow my grandfather has left me a legacy. I want to make a real difference, by helping those to heal what I suffered from. Building a successful global company is no small feat. I was told over and again I couldn’t do it. I had to move beyond a lot of doubt – other people’s and my own. But what I know now is that the very heart of the skinB5 brand is not just about making incredible natural skincare available.

The skinB5 journey is here to give you the confidence and self-belief to present your full face and vision to the world, and to help others at the same time.
