Inspiration
Winnie Harlow was inspired to create Cay Skin after a beach photoshoot in the Bahamas, where she experienced severe sunburn.
She wanted to create products that would protect the skin without compromising on the glow.
Why is it called Cay Skin?
« I wanted it to represent me and my roots, » Harlow says. « We went through a few [names], but they just didn’t feel true to me.
So I started thinking about different things that would be beautiful to name it that had to do with the Caribbean. »
Harlow has long understood the importance of wearing sunscreen.
« It really started from me being in Jamaica with my family and having vitiligo and my parents being so adamant about me wearing sunscreen. »
But she explains that she was ultimately motivated to create the skincare brand after an outdoor photoshoot left her with a severe burn.
