Skinbrands launch in Ireland

Skinbrands has launched in Ireland, bringing its cosmeceutical beauty brands such as Medik8, Revitalash, Swissline, and Synergie Skin to the Irish market.

The distribution company, founded in 2002, will offer business support as well as product distribution across the country. 

Skinbrands' entry into Ireland brings their total number of training academy locations in the UK to four. The new Irish academy joins those in Glasgow, Sheffield, and London in providing up-to-date practical training and assessments for stockists.

Leading the Skinbrands team in Ireland is new Country Sales Manager Fiona Mackessey, who describes herself as "a beauty junkie with a passion for skincare". 

Having been immersed in the beauty and wellness field for almost 25 years, Fiona's career has taken her from cruise ships to global training. In her new role, she has a "keen passion to nurture and grow brands that she adores and believes in."

Fiona will be instrumental in working with Irish spas and clinics to introduce them to the Skinbrands portfolio. The team has already achieved success in the region with launches in: 

• The Johnstown Estate, Meath - Medik8 Facial Menu
• The Shelbourne, Dublin -  Swissline at The Spa
• The Fota Island Estate, Cork - RevitaLash at Fota Island Spa

Commenting on the news, Fiona said: “Skinbrands is home to some amazing spa and clinic-based brands. The Skinbrands portfolio is the perfect fit for the Irish market. Skinbrands is a ‘one-stop shop' for premium cosmeceutical brands, housing Medik8, Synergie Skin, Revitalash, Swissline, Clinisoothe, and more. Exciting times ahead in Ireland!”
