KESS is packed with values
Simplicity.
Kess was founded to simplify make-up.
Our beauty essentials offer you an absolutely effortless experience: all product experiences with Kess are intuitive, uncomplicated, multifunctional and, above all, fun. With our products, you can create great looks in just a few simple steps.
Empowerment
Kess supports you in wearing make-up with confidence, accepting and loving yourself. We want to encourage you to celebrate yourself.
Our products help you to go about your everyday life with confidence and courage.
With Kess, you should feel comfortable in your own skin and emphasise your natural assets instead of concealing them. And the best thing is: thanks to the long-lasting textures of our products, you don't need to check your skin in the mirror. However, if you want a different, perhaps more striking look in the evening, this is also no problem with our products: all Kess Essentials can be easily applied on the go - without any prior knowledge or make-up practice.
Customer Focus.
As a direct-to-consumer brand, our community is at the centre of all our activities. Being curious, listening and learning from you is our top priority. Only through constant dialogue with you can we implement valuable feedback, requests and criticism directly into our product development.
Kess focusses on essentials. What does that mean for you?
We want to support you and never overwhelm you with products or a colour selection that you don't need. That's why we only include a limited range of colours in our range. Of course, we make sure that these appeal to as many people as possible with different skin tones and undertones. The textures of our products are buildable and can be easily combined with each other, so you have countless possibilities to create looks to suit your individual preferences.
Consciousness.
Our activities are focussed on a conscious approach to our environment and our fellow human beings. In product development, we rely on a balanced mix of natural and synthetic, but exclusively vegan ingredients. We have made a conscious decision not to use only ingredients of natural origin so that nature is not deprived of too many of its valuable resources and can recover. Many ingredients can also be produced in the laboratory as synthetic and absolutely safer versions. We also rely on multifunctional textures that you can use for different parts of your face, saving you from having to buy several products. Our packaging also contributes to a more sustainable way of buying. For example, where practical and possible, our Kess Essentials contain two ends so that you don't need two individual products.
We are still a long way from reaching our goal, but we are trying to improve step by step and work towards a sustainable future.
Performance & Innovation.
What you see is what you get! Kess stands for all-round uncomplicated and intuitive products.
Our Kess Essentials offer convincing performance and provide solutions to uncomplicate make-up. Before new products are added to our range, they undergo a series of tests. These include not only scientific performance tests of the ingredients and the end product, but also a review by dermatologists and ophthalmologists as well as assessments by independent test groups. Only when a product passes these tests with flying colours and meets our sustainability standards is it included in the Kess range. We also attach particular importance to innovation. The Kess team therefore always keeps an eye on the latest research results and developments.
