SkinEthos began with a personal search for answers. Founder Charles Ng, ND experienced sensitive, acne-prone skin from a young age and later struggled with hyperpigmentation in adulthood.
Dissatisfied with medication and harsh treatments, he began exploring gentler botanical alternatives to restore balance to his own skin.
In 1992, at the age of 15, Charles created his first plant-based treatment mask to calm inflammation and support healing. What began as a personal remedy soon evolved into a lifelong commitment to understanding skin at its deepest biological and environmental roots.
Trained in both naturopathy and engineering, Charles brings a rare integration of botanical science, clinical insight and technological design to modern skin health. His work unites phytochemistry, holistic healing and precision-based innovation to address the root causes of acne, pigmentation, sensitivity and premature ageing in a safe and sustainable way.
In 2003, he formally established his practice, laying the foundation for what has since evolved into SkinEthos Clinic.
Over two decades, his methods have grown into a comprehensive plant-tech ecosystem that supports both preventive and restorative skin health across diverse skin types, life stages and ethnicities. Each protocol and formulation is developed with the intention of restoring clarity, balance and long-term resilience without reliance on medication or aggressive procedures.
As a naturopath, engineer, researcher and IPHM-certified Executive Practitioner, Charles continues to lead research and development at SkinEthos.
Now in his late forties and still deeply involved in daily clinical work, research and formulation, Charles continues to lead innovation at SkinEthos. He develops proprietary botanical skincare, engineers in-house treatment technologies and integrates intelligent diagnostic systems to refine outcomes with greater precision and consistency. His sustained dedication reflects not only professional longevity but also a personal embodiment of the balanced, well-maintained skin health he advocates.
His philosophy remains constant. Skin health should strengthen confidence, not create dependency. True aesthetics should honour one’s natural features while restoring harmony and vitality over time. SkinEthos stands as a reflection of this enduring vision, where nature and science work in quiet synergy to support lasting skin confidence and overall wellbeing.
