Simple I ask you all, be kind to our planet. Why? Because we only have one! Sk*p understands this and that is why they made a new generation of self-care products.
About Sk*p
Sk*p was inspired by the generation it was created for a generation that’s into self-care, but eco-aware. The number of plastic packaging pieces the beauty industry contributes to our landfills each year. Yes, that means lip balm and deodorant, but it also means regular ol’ shampoo and liquid soap. Sk*p wanted to help fix this. Sk*p is a simple, clean hair and body care line safe enough for everyone, and packaged in a sustainable (and sturdy!) BeautyCarton™. The 100% recyclable, paper-based carton has more than 81% FSC-certified paper and is manufactured in the brand’s factory in New Jersey. There is no secondary packaging.
Meet the Founders!
April Hardwick is a freelance writer and mom of three young environmental enthusiasts. She’s also a former market editor, which means she spent a lot of time looking at what types of products were being made—and what weren’t—until now. Her favorite part of her job is getting feedback on sk*p and getting to know the future change-makers of the world (you!).
Mark Veeder co-founded the award-winning natural skincare brand, Pharmacy (so he knows a thing or two about clean and natural formulas). He is raising twin daughters and looking after a big family of bees that live on his upstate New York farm. These pollinators make the honey used in sk*p products. Fun fact: The name sk*p was inspired by Mark’s dad, Skip, who always told his sons, “Make the world a better place.”
About The Products
Skin Care Bundle (Cleanser/Moisturizer): The sk*p gel cleanser gets the gunk off both your face and body, then balances out your skin, reducing the look of pores—without any questionable ingredients. The all-over face and body moisturizer quench your skin the just-right amount, so it feels nice and soft, but never greasy.
The Lex Paige Reaction
When I first received these two products I thought the overall presentation was amazing. I think it’s great that the milk carton packaging is biodegradable and sustainable. The cleanser and moisturizer smelled nice and made my skin feel very soft. I was recently having some issues with redness on my face because of the new retinol products I was using, so I was worried at first about using the cleanser. I feared it might strip my skin but thankfully it did not. It was refreshing and soothing. I highly recommend trying these out!
With Love,
Lex Paige
