The unscripted video messages and their real-life stories is an extension for a call to action to embrace your type, enrich your type and to shatter every possible stereotype”, says Chaitanya Nallan, CEO & Co-founder of SkinKraft.

SkinKraft has emerged from this true belief in the power of being different, celebrating your authentic self with #Iammytype echoing that philosophy. With different names, gender, languages, religion, philosophies, countries, political instincts and professions, why should our skin, body & hair care be generic and not tailored to just us?  The beauty world is shifting away from mass manufacturing to tailor-made solutions and experiences. Customized skin, hair & body care is the future and SkinKraft advocates it with 4,00,000+ SkinKraft users who are already part of the #IamMyType Movement. We are on the right track to revolutionize beauty with customized e-commerce.” He further adds.
