Our newest product
The Body Brightening Roll-On became our best seller within two weeks
It launched at the end of September. In the first half of October, women bought more than 3 roll-ons for every 3-step kit (a scrub, serum and cream), which was our best seller until then.
It's made to help fade dark marks on the underarms, inner thighs and bikini line, and it sells for R199 on our online store, so it's an easy first buy for your customers.
The Foschini Group asked to stock Skinstem in Beauty Box and Foschini, because they saw women wanted it
"Beauty Box and Foschini were the first retail group to actually approach me to keep Skinstem on their shelves because they saw that it was a demand."Shaista Sophia, pharmacist and founder
Today you'll find Skinstem in Beauty Box and Foschini stores, and online at Bash (The Foschini Group's online store) and Takealot. We also take part in in-store events at Beauty Box, to bring shoppers to the shelf.

Meeting customers at our stands
Every product was created by a pharmacist who stood behind a counter like yours
Shaista Sophia was a pharmacist in Durban. Women kept asking her at the counter what they could use on dark marks and ingrown hairs on their bikini line, so she created Skinstem herself.
The roll-on's active ingredients are 5% tranexamic acid, kojic acid, niacinamide and licorice extract, with no hydroquinone. It's vegan and cruelty free.
Your customers won't feel shy picking it up, because it's sold as body care
Skinstem is for dark marks and ingrown hairs on the underarms, inner thighs and knees, not only the bikini line. So your customer can pick it up for her underarms, like any other body product.
The roll-on looks like a deodorant, so nobody knows what it's for unless she tells them.
Skinstem sells in salons, pharmacies and beauty stores. Here's why it works in yours.
Salons
Sell the aftercare before your client leaves
- Many of your waxing clients get ingrown hairs and dark marks a few days after their wax. They start using Skinstem 24 hours after the wax.
- You make money on a product, not only on the treatment.
- Our best seller, the roll-on, sells for R199 on our online store, so it's an easy thing to add at the till.
Pharmacies
Give women an answer when they ask you quietly
- Women already ask your pharmacist about this quietly, the same way they asked Shaista.
- A pharmacist created it. The roll-on's actives are 5% tranexamic acid, kojic acid, niacinamide and licorice extract, with no hydroquinone.
- The roll-on is vegan and cruelty free, and its full ingredient list is on its product page.
Beauty stores
Put it next to your body lotions, not hidden away
- It's sold as body care for underarms, inner thighs and the bikini line, the same way Beauty Box shelves it.
