ABOUT SKIN 2 LOVE

Skin-2-Love was born out of a thirst for knowledge and a desire to act against pollution and waste.  As many of you have done, I wanted to know how skincare was made.  The purple unicorn, adored by many, understood by few! A few years ago, I was standing in my local Chemist warehouse, looking for a moisturiser as I had run out the night before.  At this point I was unemployed (Thanks Covid), and price really was important, however, as someone who applies a moisturiser at least twice a day I did not have an option NOT to get it.  I bought the cheapest facial moisturiser I could find ($7 on special) but it was watery and underwhelming, and I felt the difference on my skin immediately.  So started my journey…. Why would one product be luxurious while another not, why do some break the bank and others do not?

I found that:

  • Moisturisers (and for that matter skincare) contained the same or very similar ingredients.
  • Ingredient lists are complicated to understand, and if you don’t understand the function and interaction of each ingredient you remain in the dark.  It’s like having a recipe for cake without knowing what quantities to use of each ingredient.
  • Packaging often cost more than the ingredients for the skincare. Yes, you read that right. 

I decided that instead of talking about doing something, to start doing something.  Skin-2-Love was born.  Re-make what’s in the inside and re-use the outside – no compromise on effectiveness or luxuriousness – simple as that.

Do you want to know the best part?  It’s EASY and FUN!!!
