Create Your One-to-One Custom Formula

Our treatments are founded on a revolutionary skincare base, Universkin™ P. A cosmeceutical formula integrating camelina oil, Vitamin E and biomimetic peptides. Its structure allows for the integration of up to 3 pure active ingredients adapted to your unique skincare needs.

Based on years of research, the medical team of Universkin™ has meticulously selected 19 active ingredients based on their efficacy and tolerance. To design your formula, a skin analysis is conducted through a questionnaire structured in 8 colors corresponding to the 8 main skin functions enabling the selection of the relevant active ingredients out of the 19 we have available.

The Universkin™ Serum P can integrate up to 3 pure active ingredients. Your practitioner will choose the right active ingredients for you and in less than 1 minute your skincare formula will be done for you, just in front of you. This method avoids the use of multiple chemical preservatives. Thus, even the fragile actives – freshly integrated in the emulsion base – deliver their best efficacy.

Your formula will be fine-tuned over time to match your lifestyle, age, skin condition, seasonal and environmental aggressions.

ACTIVE INGREDIENTS

Active Ingredients for Customised Skin Care

Skin Appearance

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that can be used to treat and prevent changes associated with photoaging, hyperpigmentation, skin redness, and skin dryness. Being acidic to the skin, it has exfoliating properties.

Isoflavones

The soy isoflavones act on the signs of hormonal skin aging. Its antioxidant function helps regulate the pigmentation, and thus improve the radiance of the complexion. It also helps to improve the elasticity and firmness of the skin.

DMAE

DMAE or dimethylaminoethanol, is the natural precursor of acetylcholine (Ach) and serves as a skin tensor, producing a short-term “lifting effect” and in the long term, improves the firmness of the skin, reduces sagging and decreases wrinkles.

Oxidative Stress

SOD

Superoxide Dismutase, or SOD, is a free radical scavenger, balances out the number of excess radicals, ultimately protecting the skin from unnecessary damages. SOD soothes the skin and helps to combat photo ageing.

Ferulic Acid

Ferulic Acid is a powerful antioxidant. It diminishes the skin free radicals and, therefore, helps to slow the ageing process.

Skin Redness

Vitamin B3

Niacinamide, or Vitamin B3, serves to control skin inflammation, especially inflammation related to acne. It also improves dry skin and regulates hyperpigmentation.

Rutin

Rutin protects and strengthen the blood vessels, thereby preventing visible “broken veins” on the surface. Additionally, it drains and improves lymphatic circulation.

Madecassoside

An active ingredient derived from Centella asiatica, a medicinal plant that has been used for over 2000 years, Madecassoside is proven to stimulate collagen synthesis and control inflammation

Retinol

A derivative of Vitamin A, retinol stimulates collagen and elastic fibers synthesis, regulates hyperpigmentation and helps to prevent dark spots. It also act as an exfoliant agent.

Skin Dryness

Aloe Vera

With wound-healing and anti-inflammatory properties that reduce inflammation, aloe vera stimulates skin healing and regeneration, provides intense hydration and improves the skin’s natural firmness.

Vitamin B5

Derived from Vitamin B5, D-Panthenol contributes to a better skin hydration by repairing the cutaneous barrier.

Skin Texture

Glycolic Acid

This smallest molecule of naturally occurring ‘fruit acid’ penetrates within the skin to stimulate elimination of dead cells (so-called exfoliation mechanism). The skin looks healthy, radiant and transparent.

Salicylic Acid

A strong anti-inflammatory, salicylic acid unclogs blackheads and whiteheads by breaking up the cells in the lining of the skin pore. In addition, its powerful keratolytic action allows dead skin cells to shed more easily.

Phytic Acid

A natural plant antioxidant and skin-lightening, moisturizing agent, phytic acid blocks melanin formation thanks to its antioxidant and chelating properties.

Skin Pigmentation

Arbutine

This agent interferes with tyrosinase’s production of melanin in order to treat dark spots and hyperpigmentation.

Kojic Acid

Kojic acid penetrates the skin to limit melanin production and minimizes the appearance of dark spots, hyperpigmentation and post-breakout scars.

Skin Oiliness

Zinc

Zinc has been shown to actively regulate sebum production and efficiently cleanse the skin.

Pimples

Lactopeptide

Lactopeptide is a leaven issue from a natural probiotic. It has antibacterial (so-called bacteriocin), anti-inflammatory and seboregulatory actions. It rebalances the cutaneous flora.
