Open your senses

Close your eyes, relax your shoulders and sense your body. The beating of your heart, the depth of your breathing and the warmth of your skin. Could you imagine a world where you are fully in your own power? Where you are free to feel, explore and connect limitlessly — with yourself and the world surrounding you. The skin connects our inner and outer world, and merges the other senses into one. Open your senses to the world of Skins.

Back to the beginning

In 2000, Co-founder Philip and childhood friend Michiel started talking about an idea. With a shared passion for entrepreneurship, they fulfilled their dream with Skins Cosmetics. A concept that disrupted the cosmetics industry by bringing international boutique brands exclusively to the Netherlands for the first time. Within a year, the duo opened their first boutique on the well-known Runstraat in Amsterdam. It housed seven brands, including Aesop and Laura Mercier, followed by DIPTYQUE and Creed.

The evolution of our brand name

At Skins, we believe that change is a natural path to growth. We are evolving from Skins Cosmetics to Skins. The name is an ode to the skin — with its different forms, textures, colours and sensitivities. We all have one, but never the same. The skin is our largest and most impressive sense: we experience the warmth of a hug, the coolness of nature or a velvety cream.
