How OnlyShy Started — My Story
My name is Arun
and OnlyShy wasn’t born in a fancy office or a perfect moment.
It began during one of the toughest phases of my life.
In 2024, everything seemed to fall apart at once. I lost my job, went through personal challenges, and felt like I had completely lost direction. It was one of those moments where you question everything — your career, your choices, your future.
But sometimes, rock bottom becomes the place where you rebuild.
During that phase, I found myself drawn toward skincare. Not just using it — but understanding it. I started reading about ingredients, skin biology, safety standards, and formulations. What began as simple curiosity slowly turned into something much deeper.
A big part of my early interest came from someone whose passion for skincare genuinely inspired me. Watching how seriously she treated skin health made me realise something important: skincare isn’t a luxury… it’s self-care.
That thought stayed with me.
I studied for months, experimented, spoke to chemists, learned what Indian skin truly needs, and slowly, the idea of OnlyShy started taking shape.
OnlyShy is my comeback story.
A brand built from a place of honesty, simplicity, and the desire to create skincare that actually works — without confusion, without exaggerated claims.
Today, every product we make reflects that journey:
simple, effective, multi-vitamin formulas designed for real Indian skin and real Indian weather.
OnlyShy isn’t just a business for me.
It’s proof that even when life breaks you, you can rebuild something meaningful… something that helps others feel confident again.
This is my story.
And this is why OnlyShy exists.
