Hyphen, co-founded by Kriti Sanon, Vaishali Gupta, and Tarun Sharma, is a skincare brand built on the belief that you shouldn’t have to choose between nature and science — you can have both. The brand was born out of the realization that consumers are often overwhelmed by the endless options for skincare, each focusing on a single ingredient or concern. Hyphen bridges this gap by “hyphenating” multiple powerful ingredients into each product, creating result-driven solutions that cater to diverse Indian skin needs.
Hyphen’s mission is to simplify skincare while delivering maximum benefits. Every product is designed to be a multi-tasking essential, offering more than one solution in a single bottle, making skincare routines both effective and effortless.

- Kriti Sanon – Actress and entrepreneur, whose passion for skincare and curiosity for innovation inspired the brand.
- Vaishali Gupta – Co-founder with expertise in brand building and consumer engagement.
- Tarun Sharma – Co-founder focused on product development and operational excellence.
Together, they envisioned Hyphen as a brand that empowers individuals to embrace skincare rituals that are clean, vegan, sustainable, and effective.
