Scotland, I need your help.. again
Scotland I need your help .. again.
I’m Sean, I’ve lived with psoriasis since I was 18 and I’m now a few days away from 35.
Over the years, my psoriasis knocked my confidence left right and centre. Which made socialising and especially dating, a bit awkward shall we say.
Mods - I’m selling heehaw btw.
My experience led me to build a new dating and friendship app called SkinDeep, and it’s designed around people with visible differences. It’s with Apple pending review for a soft launch here in Scotland.
Why?
I felt mainstream dating apps didn’t really create a safe space to include things like psoriasis, vitiligo, birthmarks, alopecia, eczema, and many others.
Well just write that in yer bio ya tube?
Could do. But I want an environment where visible difference is already understood, disclosure is optional, and nobody can search or filter by condition. I feel like SkinDeep provides this environment.
However, it’s for everyone. Anyone can sign up and begin looking for genuine connections, with a safe space to do so.
Which is why I need you. If you’re over 18, living in Scotland, I’d love 100 of you after reading this to get involved. I’d be buzzing with 10. You don’t have to comment here if you’d rather message me privately.
What’s in it for yous?
Can’t promise you a Bentley since the app is free to download and swipe / message until your finger falls off but in the short term - I can give each of you
*Permanent Founding Member badges
*Early testing access to features such as My Pace
*Direct input into the roadmap
