Interview with Balz Schürmann: Discovering the Essence of Beauty

Discovering the essence of beauty– that’s what skin689 is all about. In the world of cosmetics, skin689 stands as a testament to the belief that one’s skin is a canvas of personality and individuality, representing a vital piece of life’s quality. Rooted in Switzerland, skin689 takes pride in crafting high-quality, science-backed skincare solutions designed to elevate your skin to its best potential. With a commitment to targeted cosmetic improvements, skin689 products are meticulously engineered to enhance your skin’s radiance. Today, we are honored to present an exclusive interview with the driving force behind skin689, its founder, Balz Schürmann.

Times Monaco: Can you share the inspiration behind the creation of skin689 and what sets it apart from other skincare brands?

Balz: Our philosophy is and was to bring products to the market that make a difference. Products that have scientifically proven efficacy. At the heart of this stands our exclusive and patented active ingredient CHacoll®.

TM: As the founder of skin689, could you tell us more about the brand’s philosophy when it comes to skincare and beauty?

Balz: For skin689, the skin is an expression of the personality and individuality of every person – beautiful skin is an important part of quality of life. skin689 stands for high-quality active ingredient-based cosmetics that are developed and manufactured in Switzerland. Each skin689 product is specifically developed for the targeted cosmetic improvement of the complexion.

TM: How does skin689 incorporate scientific research and innovation into its product development process?

Balz: Scientific research is the core of our operation. We conduct clinical studies not only in-vivo but also in-vitro in order to always be on top of our game when it comes to efficacy. Having Prof. Dr. Sven Gohla as an integral part of our team, we don’t only have one of the most renown scientists in the industry on board but a true competence when it comes to picking the right active ingredient combination for each and every product.

TM: Could you highlight some of the key skincare challenges that skin689 products aim to address and the science behind their solutions?


Balz: We are the specialist for firm skin on the body. With our truly unique approach, we aim to deliver real results which are not only backed by our clients but also proven in various clinical studies. Our focus is to sustainably improve the structure of the skin. Strengthening the connective tissue is the key to a firmer, better-looking skin.

TM: At skin689, we understand that addressing cellulite concerns is a common goal for many individuals. Could you share how skin689’s innovative approach to skincare helps combat cellulite and improve skin texture, providing effective solutions for those seeking a smoother, more confident appearance?


Balz: This is indeed correct. Our first product was the skin689 Creme Anti-Cellulite. Our aim was to combat a skin condition that affects most women at some point in their lives. With our exclusive active ingredient CHacoll® from medical research, we found a way to successfully target this issue. As outlined earlier, we do not aim at ‘immediate-effects’ – for example by adding a lot of caffeine to our products – but instead target the root of the ‘problem’.

TM: In a competitive skincare market, how do you envision the future growth and evolution of skin689?

Balz: We try to establish ourselves as the specialist for a firmer skin on your body. By constantly learning more about our own active-ingredients and by finding the perfect combination with other highly effective ingredients we believe we are well positioned to continue our successful journey in a highly competitive market. Expanding to new markets is of course part of our vision.

TM: Can you share any exciting new developments or products that skin689 enthusiasts can look forward to in the near future?


Balz: Right now, I cannot share too much. What I can say though is that we are working on some very exciting projects. So, stay tuned.

TM: Lastly, what advice would you offer to individuals looking to enhance their skincare routines and achieve healthier, more radiant skin with the help of skin689 products?

Balz: Be patient. Certain skin conditions, such as Cellulite or flabby skin require a bit of time to get back on track. We don’t believe in promises that suggest you can get rid of these ‘problems’ overnight. High quality actives like CHacoll® need some time to work their magic. Integrate it in your daily routine – in our case, only once a day – but, daily. Pick the product that suits you best and give it a go.
