About SECRET SAVIOURS
Where it all beganOur founder and CEO shares her story. I met Stephen Barker, our inventor and a vascular surgeon, when I was working in advertising and he was a consultant at UCL Hospital. I had suffered with stretch marks in both of my pregnancies, so I jumped at the chance to bring his invention to market and help other women. I left my job, we raised investment, ran clinical trials, developed the product and built a team. Secret Saviours launched in 2015, and by 2016 we had won the Project Baby Awards for Skincare and Innovation. My mission is to save as many women as possible from stretch marks. I respect women who embrace theirs, but that was not the case for me. Secret Saviours gives women a real choice about whether to fight them or not. Looking to the futureSo far we have helped about 25,000 women in the UK avoid stretch marks. Our next-generation bands and briefs are more comfortable, more discreet and have four-way stretch as your body grows. They use the same skincare technology as the rest of our range, which also includes a maternity bra, leggings and shorties. Sophie HooperFounder and mother of two.
