🖼 SkinHaven – A Skincare Web App for Black Skin
📌 Role:
UI/UX Designer & WordPress Developer
🛠 Tools Used:
Figma, WordPress, Elementor, woocommerce
📍 Overview
SkinHaven is a skincare web app created for Black people. It helps users discover products, understand their skin types, and build personalized routines. The platform was designed and developed to put melanin-rich skincare needs at the center.
✨ I developed a WordPress Website for SkinHaven Skincare Brand 🌿🧴
Goal: Build a clean, fast, and conversion-focused website that builds trust and encourages repeat purchases.
For this project, the mission was clear:
Create a seamless shopping experience that reflects the brand’s natural, effective skincare while improving user engagement and conversion rates.
🔍 What I Focused On:
✅ User Behavior Analysis:
I went beyond just design — I reviewed customer feedback, support messages, and buyer hesitation points. What were customers asking? What was making them bounce?
✅ Research-Driven Improvements:
I studied similar skincare brands and considered the unique skin needs of SkinHaven target audience (mainly melanin-rich and sensitive skin types).
✅ Website Performance & Clarity:
I simplified the layout, improved page speed (essential for skincare e-commerce), and made the navigation and product discovery super intuitive on all devices.
🧴 Key Features I Implemented:
Clean, product-first homepage with curated skin goals, concerns, and product types
Shop by Skin Concern filters for better browsing
Testimonial & review sections placed at high-conversion points
Blog integration to educate and boost SEO
Smart product categorization (e.g., “Glow Essentials,” “Spot Control,” “SPF & Serums”)
Trust-building FAQ, return/refund policy, and order tracking
Speed optimization using LiteSpeed Cache plugin
Product bundles and upsell prompts to increase AOV
💡 Result Highlights:
After launching the new site:
Users spent more time on the product pages
Add-to-cart interaction increased
Product filtering and browsing became more intuitive
The client now has a scalable website that’s easy to update and extend
Solutions and Outcomes
• Designed a calm, intuitive interface using Figma with a mobile-first approach.
• Developed the site fully on WordPress, using custom blocks and plugins for flexibility.
• Optimized the site for performance and accessibility.
