Be Clinical, a skincare brand, has raised Rs 6 crore in a seed funding round headed by V3 Ventures. Titan Capital, which was founded by Kunal Bahl and Rohit Bansal, has joined the round and doubled their support for the brand.
The Mumbai-based company had previously raised Rs 2 crore in the same funding round, which was headed by Titan Capital and included Aditya Agarwal, the founder of P-TAL.
According to a press release from Be Clinical, the proceeds will be utilized for research and development to improve internal formulation capabilities, carry out clinical testing, and create focused remedies for ageing issues affecting the face, body, and scalp.
Be Clinical, an evidence-based skincare brand created especially for Indian skin and conditions, was introduced in May of last year by Hemangi Dhir. It offers clinically proven solutions for aging skin. The brand tackles aging issues with a strong emphasis on transparency, education, and quantifiable outcomes, supported by internal research and dermatologically active ingredients.
Be Clinical seeks to fill a gap in the Indian skincare market, such as the absence of transparent, clinically proven, and science-led products made especially for Indian skin and environmental conditions. According to the brand, it sets itself apart with in-vivo tested, clinically validated formulations that are backed by responsible formulation, end-to-end in-house research, and manufacturing.
Be Clinical asserts that since its founding, it has served over 25,000 clients and shown strong early traction in a brief amount of time, demonstrating quick adoption and growing consumer trust in its clinically driven, India-specific skincare solutions.
In order to increase production capacity, consistency, and quality control, the company intends to add cutting-edge machinery to its manufacturing facility. In order to maintain ingredient efficacy and uphold the brand’s clinical-grade positioning, the company hopes to improve packaging with premium, protective, and functional formats.
In the anti-aging market, it faces competition from other well-known brands like Olay, Neutrogena, Clinique, and Dr. Sheth.
