About Us — Kelpkiss | India's First Ocean-Inspired Skincare
About Kelpkiss

A Peck from the Sea.
A Promise from Science.

India's first skincare brand inspired by the ocean — rooted in seaweed science, driven by a vision to simplify skincare forever.

How It All Began

Kelp Kiss was born at the intersection of two worlds—a marine engineer's connection to the ocean and a natural product scientist's expertise in skincare ingredient research.

During his sailing journeys across coastal regions, Jyotiraditya became intrigued by the growing interest surrounding seaweed and its applications around the world. Curious about its potential, he discussed it with his wife, Shreya, a chemist and natural product scientist with a PhD in natural extracts and a background in skincare and personal care R&D.

why wasn't this remarkable marine ingredient reaching more consumers in India?

As they explored the science behind seaweed, they discovered a growing body of research highlighting its potential in skincare. Yet despite increasing global interest, seaweed remained relatively unexplored in the Indian skincare market.

The answer became Kelp Kiss—a brand dedicated to exploring the potential of seaweed and marine ingredients through thoughtfully formulated skincare inspired by the ocean and guided by science.

Two Minds, One Ocean

Bringing together expertise from the sea and the laboratory, our shared curiosity about marine ingredients became the foundation of Kelp Kiss.
