Banish (brand)

Banish is an American brand of skincare products founded by Daisy Jing in 2013. The line of products includes oils, microneedling kits, vitamin C serums, exfoliating masks and other treatments for acne scarring.

History
Prior to founding the company, Banish founder Daisy Jing created a YouTube channel called The Acne Channel, where she uploaded videos about her experiences with acne. Jing initially planned to study Pre-Med at Duke University in order to become a dermatologist, before switching her major. After discovering microneedling and vitamin C treatments, she began creating her own skin products in her kitchen. She founded Banish on September 25, 2013. Banish was on the Inc. 5000 list in 2017. In 2019, Jing discussed the experiences that led to founding Banish in a TEDx talk at Georgia Tech.
