Cosmedicals are often described as the last step before a doctor’s prescription and should always be prescribed by a skin professional in a medispa, skin clinic or medical practice environment. Skinstitut Cosmedicals contain proven technology that is clinically tested, with active ingredients to ensure the best possible skin care results.
Many skincare companies claim to contain active ingredients in their products such as antioxidants and retinol however on closer investigation these ingredients are either in a percentage so small that they do not have any therapeutic benefit or formulated in such a way that the ingredients are unstable and lack efficacy.
This can leads to a disappointed consumer ready to be preyed on by the next marketing fad. Skinstitut believes good skincare should be simple, affordable and effective. To pay hundreds of dollars for a skincare cream is ludicrous yet consumers are still lured into believing that they are getting value for money. The basis of great skin is simple, good nutrition, regular gentle exfoliation, correction with actives such as retinol and UV protection with a minimum SPF 15.
