About Us

 

The Skin Nerd was founded by Jennifer Rock - an award-winning skin tutor, dermal facialist and bestselling author. Along with being CEO of The Skin Nerd, Jennifer is also the CEO and founder of the multi-award winning Skingredients® skincare range. 

Jennifer published her bestselling debut book, The Skin Nerd: Your Straight-Talking Guide to Feeding, Protecting & Respecting Your Skin (Hachette Ireland) in 2018 and followed this with The Skin Nerd Philosophy: Your Expert Guide to Skin Health (Hachette Ireland) in 2020. Jennifer is also a regular contributor across multiple Irish and UK media platforms including Dancing with the Stars, 2fm and Ireland AM. Having suffered with her own skin, Jennifer wishes to empower and simplify skincare for all.  

Jennifer discovered her empathy for her clients when she was taken for her first facial by her mother at the tender age of thirteen and followed her passion into the professional world of beauty when she started working as a skin therapist some years later.

After working as a skin therapist and tutoring on skin worldwide for international professional skincare companies, The Skin Nerd was born and Jennifer’s following grew dramatically as she became renowned for expert skin knowledge and her unique 360-degree approach to skincare – treating skin from the inside (supplements and nutrition), on the outside (active skincare) and on top (sun protection and mineral makeup).

The Skin Nerd began with the Skin Nerd Network, an online skin consultation service and community that was the first of its kind, designed to provide specialist skin advice and a personalised skincare routine to people worldwide.

 There are now over 50,000 “Skin Nerd Networkers” across the globe who feel confident in their skincare choices and in their skin, and the store stocks over 70 carefully-selected top-to-toe brands that mirror our skin philosophy.
