The Skinceuticals product line debuted in 1994 with the sole intent and purpose of discovering, developing and delivering effective and innovative topical dermatology products designed and chemically engineered to improve the overall appearance and health of the skin. The company continually invests substantial financial and human resources into continued and ongoing highly controlled research projects, ultimately resulting in qualified and reliable Skinceuticals reviews.
The Skinceuticals board of directors is and always will be devoted to allocating the financial resources necessary to carry on high level clinical research projects aimed towards education and development, with the ultimate goal of promoting effective and reliable skin maintenance solutions.
Skinceuticals strict policy of and total dedication to developing products and advanced systems buttressed by the very latest scientific developments has garnered the product line a unquestionable reputation within the international medical community.
The greater Skinceuticals product line contains some two basic catagories or classes which stand out as being exceptional above and beyond what is a generally accepted as an impressive lineup. These would be their broad spectrum sunblock and their vitamin-C products.

Skinceuticals Reviews – Topical Vitamin-C Products
Skinceuticals makes available a relatively extensive assortment of topical vitamin-C treatment products. Virtually all of these products contain a chemically engineered, highly stabilized derivative low pH form of L-ascorbic acid. Extensive clinical studies have determined unequivocally that for topically applied vitamin-C to be truly effective, it must be in an acidic or low pH stable form and be of a minimum 10% concentration by weight.
Skinceuticals Reviews – Sunblock and Sunscreen Products
Its a commonly accepted scientific fact that exposure to the sun can have harmful effects on the skin. In fact the most recent research has determined unequivocally that both UVB and UVA spectrum rays do play an active role in progressive photo-aging and the cumulative risk of all forms of skin cancers. Ironically, in spite of what is now accepted as common knowledge, many sunblock and sunscreen products currently on the market fail to provide full protection.
Skinceuticals sunblock products provide complete UVA and UVB protection
In fact many of these top selling products that claim to offer total protection, simply don’t provide full spectrum blockage of UVA rays. To qualify as a complete sunscreen, a product must provide total protection from the suns rays that cover the entire UVB and UVA spectrum. However; the problem that developers of these products have consistently been forced to contend with involves the development of formulations that are capable of total UVA and UVB blockage that are benign and produce minimal skin and conjunctive eye irritation.
Skinceuticals sunblock products contain (Z-Cote), a patented derivative form of micro-fine transparent zinc oxide, which is a substance that does provide full spectrum UVA and UVB protection. Also, unlike zinc oxide containing sunblock products of the past, this new generation of scientifically formulated Skinceuticals sunblocking products are clear and cosmetically neutral. This means that they are all ideal for wearing under makeup.
