Founder's Story

For over two decades, my life was lived in motion, airports, meetings, hotel rooms, one city to the next. From the outside, I had everything: a successful career and a life many might envy. But inside, I was quietly unravelling from stress, disconnection, and exhaustion. Eventually, my skin began to show it, tired, dull, and aging faster than I’d liked.

Determined to create a solution that fit my busy lifestyle, I teamed up with a close friend and an experienced cosmetic chemist in Australia. Together, we set out to develop a formula that not only delivered visible anti-aging benefits, but also deeply hydrated and protected the skin against the stresses of modern living. After years of careful research and testing, we unlocked the power of marine-based active ingredients, which came together in our Triple Action formulation, designed to exfoliate, rejuvenate, and protect the skin in one simple step.

What began as a fight against visible stress evolved into something more profound. In the quiet moments of applying the first formulations, I felt serenity, clarity, and renewal. From these simple rituals, NYUZYME SKIN was born, a brand created not just for skincare, but to nurture reconnection.

“NYU” pronounced “New” reflects on embracing change, constant evolution and challenging the status quo.

“ZYME,” captures the essence of renewal, growth and the journey toward our best
selves through transformation.

Together, NYUZYME SKIN stands for a holistic approach to self-care, celebrating transformation, growth, and the beauty of becoming. Guided by science and inspired by ritual, our potent marine-based actives help you embrace your skin’s natural vitality and age-less glow.

At NYUZYME SKIN, we believe aging gracefully should be embraced, and skincare should be effortless, joyful, and accessible to all.
