In a world overflowing with skincare brands, there are very few that come from the heart. VINR is one of them. Long before it became one of India’s fastest-growing skincare companies, VINR was just a quiet dream shared by two brothers—Akshyam Shandilya and Arinn Shandilya—who simply wanted to make life a little easier for someone they loved.
It all started at home.
Growing up, the brothers watched their grandmother struggle with severe psoriasis. They saw the discomfort, the sensitivity, the emotional battles, and the constant search for a product that would soothe instead of irritate. Every new cream brought hope—and disappointment.
As children, they didn’t know what “barrier repair” or “actives” meant. But they understood one thing clearly:
Her skin needed kindness.
And kindness wasn’t available in the market.
A Question That Changed Everything
Years later, while researching skincare ingredients, the brothers discovered the extraordinary power of Vitis Vinifera (grape seed extract)—a vineyard antioxidant loved globally for its ability to calm, repair, brighten, and heal the skin gently.
At that moment, a simple but powerful question sparked their future:
“Why isn’t there a brand that blends nature, science, purity, and real effectiveness—without hurting sensitive skin?”
The answer didn’t exist.
So, they decided to create it.
And just like that, VINR—Vineyard Inspired Natural Radiance—was born.
A Small Idea With a Global Vision
What began as a mission to help one person soon transformed into a vision to help millions.
The brothers realised something important:
Indian skin is unique. Our climate is tough. Our lifestyles are demanding. And our options? Either too harsh, too heavy, or simply not made for us.
So they created VINR with three deeply personal beliefs:
1. Nature + Science = Real Results
Every VINR formula brings together botanical extracts with clinically proven actives—Niacinamide, Retinol, Salicylic Acid, Ceramides, Vitamin C, Snail Mucin, Redensyl, and more.
-
Each product is:
-
Dermat-tested
-
Paraben-free
-
Sulphate-free
-
Silicone-free
-
Non-comedogenic
-
Vegan & cruelty-free
2. Designed for Indian Skin, Trusted Globally
India’s climate is unique—humid, polluted, dusty, and harsh on the skin. VINR’s lightweight, fast-absorbing, barrier-supportive formulas were created to solve real Indian skin issues:
-
Persistent acne
-
Oily T-zone
-
Pigmentation
-
Sensitivity
-
Sun damage
-
Dullness
Yet, the ingredients and formulations are of global Korean + European standards, making the brand internationally competitive.
3. Premium Mass Market — Luxury That Everyone Can Afford
The founders were clear:
“Premium skincare shouldn’t be a luxury. It should be accessible.”
VINR products deliver luxury packaging, clinical ingredients, and global-level textures—at prices the Indian consumer can afford.
