More about Skin + Me, and the + Me brands

In 2018, we set out to solve a problem that millions of people faced: not just struggling with their skin, but struggling to navigate skincare itself. By combining dermatology expertise, pharmacy and technology, Skin + Me created a simpler, more personalised approach – and proved that expert-led care could reach people who'd never had access to it before.

That belief became the foundation of something bigger.

Today, + Me is the company behind Skin + Me, Hair + Me and Renew + Me, with more on the horizon. We're not building a single brand. We're building a category – one where clinical expertise, smart technology and real personalisation are the standard, not the exception.

Every brand we build starts with a real problem. Every solution is rooted in science. And every person who joins + Me becomes part of re-engineering personal care for more people, in more ways.
