About Us
Started in Surat.
Built with Hope.
The story of a 24-year-old founder building a skincare brand from the ground up—one customer, one product and one good experience at a time.
Krushal Maniya
Founder, Hope N Skin · Surat, Gujarat
My name is Krushal Maniya, I’m 24 years old, and I’m the founder of Hope N Skin.
Hope N Skin started in June 2025 in Surat, Gujarat, with a simple idea in my mind: to build a skincare brand that people can genuinely trust.
I didn’t want to create another brand that simply looked good on social media or made unrealistic promises.
I wanted to build something real.
While exploring the skincare market, I noticed that customers today have hundreds of options, yet choosing the right skincare still feels complicated. There are difficult ingredient names, confusing routines, expensive products and marketing claims everywhere.
I felt there was room for a brand that could make skincare simpler, more approachable and more value-driven.
That is where Hope N Skin began.
Why “Hope N Skin”?
The name has a very simple meaning to me.
Whenever someone starts a skincare routine, they start it with hope.
I wanted that feeling to become the heart of the brand.
And that is why I named it Hope N Skin.
Starting at 24
I started this journey at the age of 24.
There was no perfect roadmap.
I had to learn everything step by step—from understanding skincare ingredients and products to packaging, branding, websites, logistics, customer experience, advertising and building a business from the ground up.
Some things worked.
Many things didn’t.
There were campaigns that failed, ideas that had to be changed and decisions that taught me lessons the hard way.
But every mistake helped shape Hope N Skin into a better brand.
Building a meaningful company is not about getting everything right from day one. It is about listening, learning and improving continuously.
What We Are Building
From the beginning, our approach has been to create skincare around ingredients people already recognise and understand—ingredients such as Vitamin C, Niacinamide, Salicylic Acid, AHA-BHA and Hyaluronic Acid.
But products are only one part of what I want Hope N Skin to become.
My goal is to build a company where customers know that there is a real team behind every order, every product and every message.
A brand that listens when customers speak.
A brand that improves when something can be better.
A brand that does not disappear after making a sale.
And most importantly, a brand that earns trust over time.
From Surat to Something Much Bigger
Hope N Skin may have started in Surat in June 2025, but my vision for the brand has always been much bigger.
I want to build Hope N Skin into a skincare brand recognised across India.
Not overnight.
Not through shortcuts.
But one customer, one product and one good experience at a time.
We are still at the beginning of our journey, and there is a long way to go.
There will be new products.
Better formulations.
Better experiences.
And many improvements along the way.
But one thing I never want to change is the reason we started:
To create skincare people can feel confident choosing.
To every person who has ordered from Hope N Skin, recommended us, followed our journey or simply given our products a chance—thank you.
You are not just buying from a skincare company.
You are becoming part of a brand that is being built from the ground up by a 24-year-old founder from Surat with a very big dream.
And I promise that as Hope N Skin grows, we will keep working to become better every single day.
Because for us, this is only the beginning.
