ETAL is a skincare brand with a difference. Their mission is to build awesome skincare products with scientific integrity.

The ETAL team met on the MSc Technology Entrepreneurship course at University College London last year, and started exploring different uses for natural antioxidants in skincare before founding the company in 2015 and starting work on their first niche product: the world’s first stretch mark solution built specifically for men. They worked closely with SynbiCITE during their time on the Lean LaunchPad in early 2015 - a programme designed by Steve Blank and tailored to biologist entrepreneurs in partnership with Dr Stephen Chambers and his colleagues at Imperial College London. SynbiCITE gave ETAL a once in a lifetime opportunity for accelerated entrepreneurial learnings, and unique insights into the biotech landscape. ETAL are now focused on launching Scar Stretch Protect, and during all that spare time they have are already thinking about their next skincare offering!
