Skinceuticals

Skinceuticals are market leaders in Vitamin C technology and were the first to develop a topical Vitamin C product using L-Ascorbic acid which has been proven to stimulate collagen, neutralize free radicals and is also anti-inflammatory.

Skinceuticals products are designed to prevent and protect against sun damage and harmful free radicals and help to correct previous damage.

Using a broad spectrum antioxidant combines with a broad spectrum sunscreen is one of the most effective ways to prevent premature photo-ageing as well as correct defects like lines and wrinkles and pigmentary changes associated with sun damage. These products are Skinceuticals speciality.

Product Ranges

Cleanse & Tone

Formulated to meet the exacting standards of skincare professionals, SkinCeuticals’ cleansers and toners include a variety of active ingredients such as hydroxy acids, botanical extracts, and cleansing agents to lift impurities and oils, gently exfoliate dead skin cells, and balance ph levels. our cleansing and toning products leave the skin feeling fresh and clean without increased dryness or oiliness.

Prevent

Research shows that aging skin is the result of more than just years on the calendar. Exposure to environmental elements like sunlight, smoke, and air pollution causes photo-ageing in skin. Not only does this lead to the formation of lines, wrinkles, and discoloration – it can lead to more serious skin conditions, including skin cancer.

A comprehensive preventive program can help prevent photo-ageing as well as the onset of more serious skin conditions. Studies prove antioxidants effectively neutralize chemical reactions generated when skin is exposed to these environmental insults. When used together, antioxidants and sunscreens provide almost complete photo-protection – preventing photo-ageing, preventing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and promoting skin health.
SkinCeuticals has developed a full menu of super-antioxidant formulas for all skin types – designed to provide the most advanced protection from environmental ageing.

Correct

Over time, regardless of lifestyle, skin begins to change. signs of aging may appear. fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration, and loss of elasticity become more visible. these signs can be the result of collagen breakdown, slower cell turnover, and loss of moisture. Damage is intensified by sun exposure, environmental elements, and smoking. A strong preventive program is critical to prevent further damage from these assaults and help slow down the aging process. Additionally, skinceuticals corrective products combine reparative, lightening, and exfoliating ingredients to help rehabilitate damaged skin, restoring a healthier and more youthful appearance. The category includes products formulated specifically for delicate areas such as the eyes and lips.

A.G.E. Interrupter

Intrinsic aging, caused by internal factors such as hormonal shifts and metabolic slowdown, contributes greatly to skin sagging, creping, thinning, and cracking. A.G.E. Interrupter is a unique treatment formulated with 4% blueberry extract, 30% Proxylane™, and 0.2% phytosphingosine to help prevent the glycation process and correct severe signs of intrinsic aging in mature skin. Blueberry extract is both an antioxidant and anti-glycation ingredient that inhibits advanced glycation end-products (A.G.E.) while preventing further oxidation from ccurring. Proxylane™ rebuilds the support structure that degrades as a direct result of intrinsic aging and efficiently improves anchorage of the skin’s upper layers onto the dermis to increase elasticity and thickness. Phytosphingosine protects the skin’s barrier, while rich emollients hydrate dry, cracking skin. This multi-faceted and uniquely-textured formulation is
optimized to prevent and correct the most visible signs of aging, while minimizing the associated discomfort and dryness.
