Gold medal-winning Olympian and CIDP advocate Michael Klim announced his return to the skincare industry.
Klima is a new wellness-first brand designed for the hotel and hospitality industries, driven by Klim's passion for health, wellbeing, and a purpose-driven lifestyle that’s naturally born from resilience.
The brand features a core line of premium, wellness-focused products, including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, body lotion, and select in-room retail offerings like Snaaps 35mm cameras to promote ‘analogue wellness’. Each formulation is vegan, cruelty-free, and infused with coastal botanicals designed to restore and replenish.
“For me, Klima is more than a return to skincare, it’s the convergence of purpose, personal resilience, and passion,” said Michael Klim.
“Living with CIDP has reshaped my focus toward wellbeing and balance. Klima reflects that journey and gives back through every partnership we build.”
The range will first roll out across select Australian hotels and hospitality groups, with expansion into Bali, a place Klim has called home, already in progress. Several Bali-based partnerships are underway, targeting wellness-driven and socially conscious hotels that align with the brand’s ethos.
In addition to hotel distribution, Klima will engage the hospitality and wellness industries through brand activations, collaborative events, and experiences focused on wellbeing, advocacy, and community, reinforcing his wellness-first lifestyle and contributing to raising awareness for CIDP and supporting those living with the condition.
Driven by Klim's passion for health, wellbeing, and a purpose-driven lifestyle that stems from resilience, Klima's proceeds directly support The Klim Foundation. This foundation provides information and support to individuals affected by CIDP, their caretakers, and health professionals.
The launch marked a personal milestone for Klim, who was diagnosed in 2020 and has since dedicated much of his public and personal efforts to raising awareness of the rare neurological condition.
Klima will be available exclusively through Hunter Amenities beginning September 2025.
