OUR STORY
From 14 Years of Struggle to
Your Clear Skin Solution
A journey of perseverance, science, and the unwavering belief that everyone
deserves to feel comfortable in their own skin.
Hello, I’m Jasmine
For 14 years, acne, oily and sensitive skin was the thing I could not escape.
It started in my late teens. At first, I thought it would pass like it does for most people. But months turned into years, and my acne journey was a roller coaster. I experienced every form of acne : painful cystic acne that wouldn’t heal, endless whiteheads and blackheads, bumpy texture across my entire face.
After graduating with a degree in Biomedical Science from NUS, I went into pharmaceutical sales. I spent my days calling on doctors and specialists, and many of them kindly offered to help me with my skin.
I was grateful for every single one of them. Through them, I had access to treatments like prescription antibiotics, hormone pills, professional facials, chemical peels, laser treatments, blue-light therapy. I even completed a 6 month course of Accutane. It got rid of the big cystic acne, but left behind tiny bumps and rough texture that simply would not go away.
I had tried everything, from natural remedies to expensive anti-acne products to the most advanced clinical treatments available.
But nothing worked completely.
There were periods where I hated looking at myself in the mirror, finding difficulty making eye contact when talking with other people and refusing to take photos. Seeing my own reflection hurt. Acne does not just affect your skin. It quietly takes things from you, your confidence, your ease in a room, your willingness to be seen.
From Acne Sufferer to Acne Fighter
The Science Behind Skinlycious
The turning point came not from a single doctor, but from a combination I discovered myself.
A dermatologist I was seeing had prescribed me a calamine-based cleanser and a salicylic acid-based spot treatment that finally started making a difference to my skin. Separately, an aesthetic doctor introduced me to a hydrating serum that helped my skin find balance in a way nothing else had. It was only when I started using both together that something finally shifted for me.
This became the Clear Skin Potent Kit, the first 3 products I launched and the ones I still use to this day.
As I did more R&D, I discovered and affirmed that many ingredients with just a change in concentration and forms could lead to my skin increasing sebum/oil production and breaking out.
My commitment: Every Skinlycious product is tested on my own acne-prone skin first. If it increases oil production or causes breakouts for me, it never makes it to you. Then, we test with a small group of fellow acne fighters to ensure it works across different skin types.
As more people came to Skinlycious, I started hearing from acne fighters who reacted badly to acids-based products. Their skin could not tolerate the Glow Exfoliant, no matter how carefully they used it.
I listened. Together with this group, I developed an alternative: the Clarifying Serum, a vitamins-based spot corrector that works without drying or peeling. It has become especially popular with tweens, teens, and pregnant mums who need something gentler but still effective.
With two spot correctors in the range, the next challenge was helping people figure out which one was right for them, without wasting weeks and money going down the wrong path.
That is how we developed the Skinlycious Signature Half-Face Test, and it became the first part of what we now call the Match+Balance System®.
Match is about finding what works for your skin specifically. Because everyone’s skin responds differently to actives, even two people with the same type of acne can need completely different spot correctors. The half-face test helps you identify your match in as little as 5 days, so you can stop guessing and start seeing results.
I am proud to say it has helped thousands of acne fighters identify what works for them in the shortest possible time.
As more fellow acne fighters joined our community, I started noticing something that the half-face test alone could not solve.
Not everybody had oily skin like me. They were on the drier side, their skin not producing enough oil on its own or struggling to hold moisture due to a weakened skin barrier.
This is how Balance was born. Balance is about finding your skin’s perfect water and oil balance.
To develop the right moisturising range for acne-prone skin, I completed a Diploma in Organic Skincare Formulation, so I could properly understand which plant oils and natural ingredients would work without triggering breakouts.
Rather than a one-size-fits-all moisturiser, we guide our community to mix and adjust. The Hydrating Serum forms the base, as our skin cannot produce water on its own. From there, mix or layer in the Barrier Booster Moisturiser and Balancing Facial Oil until you find your personal sweet spot. Not tight or pulling. Not perpetually greasy. Just calm, hydrated, and comfortable in your own skin.
Sensitivity, oiliness, dryness, acne, breakouts, eczema and more, these are often signs of skin that is out of balance. Address the root cause of that imbalance, and these symptoms take care of themselves.
While developing our Soothing Cleansing Gel, something unexpected happened. I found that higher concentrations of soothing extracts actually cleared the acne of a fellow acne fighter named Irene, who had extremely sensitive skin and had failed the half-face test entirely.
She did not need more acne-fighting ingredients. She needed her skin sensitivity addressed and her skin barrier rebuilt. That insight changed everything.
This became our Solution B : for skin that is too sensitive for conventional acne treatments, the answer is not to fight harder. It is to stop fighting and start soothing.
Your skin doesn’t define you.
We’re here to help.
Skinlycious started as my attempt to solve my own skin. What I did not expect was how many people were quietly going through the same thing.
Today, our community includes far more than people with active acne. It includes people with acne-prone skin who want to stay ahead of breakouts before they start. People with persistently oily skin who just want to feel comfortable in their own face. People with sensitive skin that reacts to almost everything and has never quite found its footing. And parents, especially mums, who see their teenager’s skin starting to change and want to get ahead of it with something safe and gentle, before the struggle becomes what mine did.
Whatever brings you here, you belong here.
Every message, every thank you, every before-and-after I receive from this community pushes me to keep going. I still test every product on my own skin. I still read the feedback. I still show up, because this was never just a business to me.
Today, I am a proud mompreneur juggling family life alongside this work, and that dual role has only deepened my understanding of what our community needs. As a mother, I know what it means to want safe, gentle, and honest skincare for the people you love most.
It has been a tough journey. But going through it has put me in a position to genuinely help you through yours.
