Holistic Kinesiologist & Founder

What does Antika Skin mean to you and where did it all begin?  
Antika Skin represents a reconnection to the primal essence of nature. Honouring the way of ancient herbalists, treating skin with one ingredient at a time. A brand built on the principles of sustainable luxury which needs to be celebrated more within the beauty industry. It can be clean, it can be sustainable and it can be beautifully packaged and a luxury experience. As a Holistic Kinesiologist, I began looking for natural products for skin. I found that many commercial products, while natural often contained too many ingredients, it was too heavily scented, over formulated. Natural yes… but so far from its natural raw state.  So I began the journey to source and produce an ethical, sustainable and truly clean beauty brand. It was my passion, and borderline obsession that took 6 slow years to find the right suppliers, from ingredient through to packaging. You might be surprised how difficult it is to find a truly ethical & sustainable glass jar manufacturer! 
Antika Skin celebrates the intimate ritual of connecting with raw single ingredient, taking the time to indulge your skin and connect with yourself slowly. One ingredient at a time!
