Esther Meijer- Litjens and Stephanie Litjens
Prescription was developed by Esther Meijer-Litjens and Stephanie Litjens, founders of Soap Treatment Stores & Doctors at Soap: a chain of premium cosmetic
and medical treatment clinics. The sisters have combined all the knowledge and expertise they’ve gained over the past 20 years to create products that truly work.
Founder Esther: “We were raised with the idea that taking care of our skin was essential. While most families would ask if you'd brushed your teeth in the morning and evening, our mother would always say: ‘Did you cleanse and moisturize your skin properly?’”
Most frequently asked question to doctors, skin therapists and beauticians
Prescription was born out of the most frequently asked question at Soap Treatment Store and Doctors at Soap: “There are so many beauty products, and I really have no idea which ones are right for me. Can you advise me?”
It was a great question. And the simple answer is: look at the active ingredient in a product, that’s what does the work. The rest is just ‘noise’ for your skin.We thought: if we can make that active ingredient as pure and effective as possible within a formula, the result will be optimal. And it worked. The active ingredient is always the key element and we simply name each product after it.
Founder Stephanie: “Prescription is based on scientifically proven active ingredients. That’s the foundation of every unique product formulation.”
First Dutch company with a Skin Scan based on AI
We really want everyone to take care of their skin with the best and most suitable routine using exactly the right products (read: ingredients). To make this possible, we’ve developed a unique skin scan - as the first skincare company in the Netherlands - together with Eindhoven University of Technology. Using just a selfie, our AI-tool analyzes your photo anonymously within a database of over 10 million skin images. Based on this analysis, you'll receive a personal skin diagnosis and a matching skincare routine. Your very own Prescription.
It all started in the center of Amsterdam…
Sisters Esther Meijer-Litjens and Stephanie Litjens opened the first Soap Treatment Store on the Spuistraat in the center of Amsterdam in 2005. Today, there are ten Soap branches in the Netherlands where clients receive treatments such as facials, injectables, skin therapy, manicures, pedicures and brow treatments. The 28 doctors, 15 skin therapists and 95 beauticians form the foundation of the development of the
Prescription products and treatments.
