Nutrafol has made a foray into a new category in beauty and personal care. The Unilever-owned hair care supplements brand has rolled out Nutrafol Skin, a new line billed as a first-of-its-kind daily supplement for women ages 18-plus who experience mild to moderate acne.

Nutrafol says it is offering a new integrative approach to skin health for one of the most common skin concerns in the US impacting adult women.

According to Nutrafol, only 14% of whom think their acne treatment is working. The new range was developed to “upend traditional skincare” by addressing key root causes of non-cystic acne in adult women, including stress, hormonal fluctuations, the microbiome across both skin and gut, and immune system function — and how all those factors work together.

Unlike other non-drug acne products, the brand says Nutrafol Skin goes well beyond the conventional root causes, and ingredient-based, skin-focused data. Its clinically tested formula reduces mild to moderate acne breakouts and visibly improves post-acne dark spots with a proprietary Synergen Skin Complex and standardized 100% drug-free ingredients, according to Nutrafol.

“At Nutrafol, we consistently strive for innovation to address concerns that may affect our emotional well-being. First, it was hair health— I started Nutrafol to address my own hair challenges and the terrible toll that took on me. What we've built, and more importantly, the people we've been able to help as a result, is truly a dream realized,” said Giorgos Tsetis, Nutrafol's co-founder and CEO. “We've made a tremendous impact on so many lives, but we also know that women are plagued by another confidence killer, acne. So for the past 2.5 years, we have brought all of the scientific resources and research available to us at Nutrafol to develop our whole-body approach for women struggling with their skin. We know skin and hair concerns mirror our inner health, and our mission is to extend our impact to as many individuals as possible.”

Nutrafol launched in 2016. Unilever invested in the brand in 2017 and acquired it in 2022.
