Why we made this
Beauty was built for one kind of hand. Everyone else got left out. So we made soft grips that snap onto the makeup you already own, easier to open, hold and apply. Designed with disabled people, not just for them. Because beauty should work for every body.
Meet our founder, Storm
Storm didn’t set out to build a beauty brand. She was just trying to do her makeup after breaking her dominant hand. Born with mild CP, it was the first time she realised beauty wasn’t made for hands that work differently. So she designed tools that are easier to hold, open, and apply, with lived experience at the centre.
Created with lived experience, not guesswork.
ByStorm tools aren’t dreamed up in a boardroom. They’re shaped by real people who know what it feels like when beauty isn’t accessible. Co-design is the backbone of everything we build: we listen, test, and refine until our community says, “Yes. This works.”
