MY STORY- WHY I CREATED SO DRY SKIN
Romford, Greater London, United Kingdom
Aim
Growing up with hyperhidrosis made skincare feel overwhelming. So Dry Skin is about finally making it comfortable.
Hi everyone I’m the founder of So Dry Skin and this brand started because of something I struggled with growing up.
I’ve lived with hyperhidrosis for as long as I can remember. I was the kid who always felt too hot. Too sweaty. Too uncomfortable. After showers, after sports, in summer, during stress my skin never felt calm. I wondered if I would ever have friends, if I would ever fall in love. So Dry Skin exists for the kid who avoided moisturiser because it made them sweat.
For the teenager who felt embarrassed about their body. I’m trying to create something for US.
When it came to moisturising, something that’s meant to feel comforting and self-care… it felt like torture.
Creams felt wet and sticky.
Lotions made me sweat even more.
Oils felt heavy and suffocating.
So I avoided moisturising altogether. Even when my skin was dry, irritated, and needed care. I felt embarrassed about sweating. I felt frustrated with my body. And I felt like skincare just wasn’t made for people like me.
As I got older, I realised something important:
Millions of people feel this way, but no one is designing skincare for us.
The beauty industry focuses on dry skin.
The medical world focuses on stopping sweat.
But no one is thinking about comfort.
So I decided to build what I wish I had growing up.
My vision is to build the world’s first comfort-first skincare brand for people who sweat.
I want So Dry Skin to become:
- The go-to brand for people with hyperhidrosis
- A trusted name in sweat-friendly skincare
- A community for people who grew up feeling uncomfortable in their own skin
- A brand that makes everyday routines feel safe, calm, and empowering
This brand is about more than moisturiser.
It’s about dignity, confidence, and feeling good in your body.
Our first product, The Melt Stick, is a solid moisturiser in a push-up stick (like a deodorant). You swipe it on dry skin, it melts instantly, absorbs in seconds, and leaves a dry-touch finish with no sticky residue.
No mess.
No waiting.
No discomfort.
Just soft, calm skin.
Every contribution brings this product closer to the people who have been waiting for it.
I would be very grateful for any support in making a change in my life, and the millions of people living with this condition.
