I’m Monica, the founder of Peruda Skincare. You might say Peruda’s story started with bad skin - really bad skin.

Back in 2013, when my face erupted in a medley of abscesses, rosacea, and angry rashes, I went from trying every luxury potion and drugstore lotion to diving headfirst into scientific journals.

My quest for relief led me deep into the Amazon rainforest, where I discovered the remarkable healing properties of wild-harvested botanicals.

Then life threw a plot twist: a stage 3 cancer diagnosis in 2019. While the treatments saved my life, they left my skin more reactive than ever. But this time, armed with a wealth of botanical knowledge, I adapted my formulations to work with even the most sensitive skin. My personal experience from bad to healthy skin builds the foundation of Peruda.  

Studies show that up to 70% of women and 60% of men experience skin sensitivity, with these numbers skyrocketing among cancer patients. The painful irony of beating cancer or any other serious illness only to feel uncomfortable in your own skin isn't lost on us. That's why we're committed to helping others rediscover their confidence through gentle yet effective skincare. 

Born in 2024 and operating from our base in the Canton of Zurich, Peruda

• is the first all-natural skincare brand dedicated to skin recovery
• uses potent wild-harvested Amazonian botanicals
• creates waterless, synthetic-free, perfume-free formulations
• is dermatologically approved for sensitive skin.

In short, we're not here to sell a miracle in a bottle. We're here because we've walked the challenging path of skin sensitivity and health struggles, and we've created something that actually helps - no buzzwords, just thoughtfully sourced, carefully formulated 100% natural skincare that works.
