What is Skinceuticals?
Written by: E. Carls-Lansang

SkinCeuticals is one of the manufacturing leaders in developing topical peroxide for acne prevention and liquid formulas designed to greatly enhance skin protection from harmful UVB-UVA rays. Based in Garland, Texas, the company founded in 1997 by Alden Pinnell and Russell Moon, has adopted this belief and brought it into everyday life. It also gave birth to a new industry called "cosmeceuticals." Cosmeceuticals is the combined words of cosmetics and pharmaceutical that introduces the latest progress in skin care products. Totally distinctive from the rest of conventional cosmetic merchandise, cosmeceuticals promotes reversion of sun damaged skin, wrinkle reduction, and most especially the treatment of acne. This is where SkinCeuticals, Inc., stand in their promise to pioneer the production of scientifically proven and advanced skin care line, most notably their "C E Ferulic antioxidant" guaranteed to release eight (8) times of our skin's natural defense against the cumulative detrimental effects [like wrinkles and dark spots] of ultraviolet radiation in sunlight and other sources to the skin resulting from prolonged exposure.
SkinCeuticals are supported by a group of well-known dermatologists, specialty doctors, plastic surgeons, as well as distributors for spas and salons. Aimed at helping the consumers find the best product to most of their skin problems, the company has collaborated with topnotch scientists of different backgrounds in chemistry, medicine, and biophysics as well as in the field of cellular and molecular biology in fulfilling this goal. And true to their objective, it is continuously seeking cutting edge commodities to the quickly increasing division of cosmeceuticals. Numerous clinical studies citing SkinCeuticals products' rewards, as reported in various medical journals [normally reserved for pharmaceutical researches), would attest to the company's excellent consumer skin care products and services.
As Mr. Pinnell declares in one of his several interviews, "We have a bigger calling, a higher purpose than producing products that make skin appear more beautiful." He adhered to this calling by stating that, "We are more focused on the research and development of formulas, the education of certified aestheticians, dermatologists, and plastic surgeons to protect and sustain the health of the skin." Mr. Pinnell even added in jest that "he is determined to cheat the odds of looking older." And with this agenda in place, SkinCeuticals, Inc., is set to fulfill this lifelong commitment to the public.
