nkm was founded in 2015 by Mareike Peters. Inspired by her own skin, she began learning about skincare, active ingredients and formulations, developed her own products with plant extracts and active ingredients, and shared her knowledge on social media. When her community asked to buy her products, she launched her brand, nkm. According to the founder, every nkm formulation aims to care for the skin and support its natural function. nkm works with vegan ingredients and current research. In 2021, the nkm atelier opened in Hamburg, where you can buy products in full and travel sizes.
