OUR
FOUNDER

I have suffered from sensitive skin, eczema and dermatitis my whole life. It really affected my mood, self-confidence and ability to live life to the fullest.

I was surrounded by all of these brands promising beautiful skin featuring flawless models - none of which resonated with me or represented who I was or solved the real skin concerns I had.

As an architect for many years, I’ve spent my whole career creating, solving problems and designing high-quality building solutions. It was then that I decided that I wanted to create and design a high-quality solution for my skin.

I wanted to create a natural and effective skincare range that not only solved my own concerns but also would work for everyone, for all types of skin no matter what background they are, no matter what gender - A high-quality range with only nature's finest ingredients! This is how Alcapoc was born.

I looked to my past, my Asian heritage & culture. My mother had always used calendula on my skin to minimise my dermatitis. I realised natural, plant-based ancient techniques had always been used to solve skincare problems - practices that had existed for thousands of years and were handed down from generation to generation. The earth has always provided everything we need to nourish our skin.

I was inspired by my travels in my early 20s when I visited many different countries and learned ancient recipes from all over the world. This sacred knowledge would become the foundation of Alcapoc and birth our first four products - DIVINITY, PAEON, JAPONICA & JORÁ.

It took me 4 years to develop these precious formulas and after countless tries (15 reformulations each), it was finally perfected. Alcapoc is a natural skincare range adapted for sensitive skin targeting different concerns: clarity, fine lines & wrinkles, reactive skin.

The brand is not just about a beauty cosmetic product, but it’s a brand that evokes feeling, emotion and connection to the earth.

Enjoy,
