Kerry's journey began with a passion for providing professional skincare solutions that seamlessly align with her active New Zealand lifestyle. Years of exposure to harsh elements like saltwater, chlorinated pools, and countless hours skiing on New Zealand's breathtaking mountains—sparked her drive to create and retail a collection of products that could meet these challenges head-on. Living in one of the world’s most stunning yet demanding outdoor environments, Kerry embraces the realities of her lifestyle. She’s candid about her love for indulging in life’s pleasures, from quality time with friends and family to enjoying New Zealand’s renowned fine wines. These experiences, combined with her active outdoor routine, make her approach to skincare refreshingly unique. Kerry isn't your typical beauty therapist. She understands firsthand the toll such an active lifestyle can take on the skin and the importance of advanced skincare solutions to counteract those effects. Her mission has always been to blend science with nature, creating exceptional formulations that go beyond the surface to penetrate the dermis—where real transformation occurs—while utilizing the best natural ingredients. "I love seeing science and nature work together harmoniously," Kerry says. "It's not just about having natural goodness in a bottle; it’s about ensuring the formulations are safe, stable, and truly effective. Who wants a product that's all words and minimal results?" Her expertise in active skincare allows her to sidestep the shortcomings of many over-the-counter products, which often lack sufficient active ingredients. Instead, she focuses on crafting powerful, results-driven home care packages and advanced in-clinic treatments tailored to meet a range of skin concerns, ensuring her clients receive the best of both science and nature.

Kerry's passion for small businesses is at the heart of BLACK&WHITE Beauty. On December 23, 2015, an email arrived in Kerry's inbox that would change her perception of the beauty industry. She realised that small businesses were losing control over their inventory and sales strategies. 

This sparked her determination to create a brand that prioritises accessibility for these enterprises.

Kerry spent two years researching formulations and ingredients, culminating in a partnership with renowned formulator in the USA. 

This collaboration ensures that BLACK&WHITE products are crafted with the highest quality ingredients in a state-of-the-art laboratory. By empowering small businesses with affordable access to exceptional products, Kerry is committed to fostering their growth and success in a competitive market.
