Our Story
Born in Brooklyn but raised in the Bronx, Nalaika discovered the transformative power of skin care as a form of self-care during her own battle with depression. Through this personal journey, Nalaika found that cultivating love for herself not only improved her mental well-being but also unleashed the confidence to conquer her goals.
Driven by a deep passion for helping others and inspired by the profound impact of the pandemic on mental health, Nalaika embarked on a mission to create a truly unique beauty experience. With a vision to offer more than just traditional services, she sought to establish Skindelush as a sanctuary that caters to customers in a therapeutic and rejuvenating way.
As a diagnosed "neurodivergent" or, as Nalaika playfully describes it, "neuro-spicy" beauty business owner, she understands the importance of fostering a culture of understanding and empathy. Nalaika believes that everyone deserves a safe space to embrace their unique beauty and embrace self-care practices tailored to their specific needs.
With this passion at the forefront, Nalaika has infused Skindelush with her own personal journey, ensuring that every visit offers not only luxurious treatments but also an atmosphere of tranquility and acceptance. Skindelush is a haven where the transformative power of beauty intertwines with the therapeutic benefits of self-care, leaving each customer feeling at ease, confident, and empowered.
Step into Skindelush, and let Nalaika and her dedicated team guide you on a transformative journey toward beauty, self-care, and mental well-being.
