Annie Thorisdottir and Katrin Davidsdottir have joined Helga Sigrun Hermannsdottir to launch Dottir Skin. The Instagram account, @dottirskin, made its first post this afternoon and was followed up by all three co-founders posting about their upcoming launch on their personal accounts.
The official launch appears to be in just a few days, July 17. Dottir Skin will launch products tailored for athletes with the first product being a 50+ SPF sunscreen that is water resistant, fragrance-free and EU Compliant.
But while the launch seemed to pop up suddenly, the @dottirskin Instagram account has been active since August 2021. Additionally, F6S shows that Gísli Ragnar Guðmundsson and Helga Sigrún Hermannsdóttir were the initial investors of Dottir Skin.
Since the initial funding, Annie Thorisdottir and Katrin Davidsdottir appear to have joined the company although timing and details are not known.
Helga Sigrún Hermannsdóttir, co-founder and head of product development, shared on LinkedIn that Dottir Skin received a grant from Sproti under the Technology Development Fund, which is managed by The Icelandic Centre for Research.
The Dottir Skin website will be dottirskin.com according to FS6, but it is not yet operational.
Dottir Skin is not the first business venture by the two CrossFit Games champions. The duo launched Dottir Audio in 2021. Gísli Ragnar Guðmundsson was also involved with Dottir Audio. He was the co-founder and Brand Director from September 2021 through June 2023. Dottir Audio was shut down in late 2022.
