OUR SKIN STORY
Welcome to THE SKILLS®. An Australian skincare brand inspired by a generation of self care heroes, cool culture and a passion for skin health.
We’re not celebrities just yet, no big time name endorsed us to get us here. We didn’t have a tonne of cash to throw at our brand, nor were we backed by a bunch of dudes in threads ready to catapult us into a bunch of retailers, instead we door knocked and pitched ourselves into the major retailers. We aren’t a subsidiary of another major group, we are THE SKILLS®.
Founded by husband and wife Paul and Bernadette, two ex media and advertising execs with a passion for skin and Drake, a love for basketball and the culture it brings and doing skincare routines in reverse - while listening to Future.
There is no hard and fast rule about our brand and its focus points. Besides the fact we make game changing skincare that looks like your playlist, THE SKILLS® actually represents you and your ways. We know you’re keen to learn, eager for new, invested in your goals and see worth in problem solvers.
We know you love trial, but you’re also cautious, you’re excited by new but skeptical of change. You see value in your shelf aesthetic but will only repeat if the price is reasonable.
SO WE… Self cared the Sunday, watched the NBA playoffs and did a 65 step skincare routine from 14 different brands, some geared to men and some geared to women, all of which were tucked away and not on display. From this mediocre Sunday night came the brand, THE SKILLS®.
