The notion that simply avoiding certain ingredients will resolve all skin concerns for all skin types, is not valid. There are many different skin types, conditions and scenarios. Dr. Baumann, a highly respected dermatologist, devised a classification system that designates 16 specific skin types – comprised of a matrix of factors. She has researched extensively and spent years in clinical practice to come up with her philosophy on the 16 classifications, called “The Baumann Skin Types” system. Dr. Baumann curates skincare regimens that cater to the specific needs and conditions of each skin category.

You can imagine the skin barrier as a brick wall; where the cells are the bricks, and the mortar that holds the wall together contains vital lipids (ceramides, cholesterols and fatty acids).

This means ensuring that we nurture and care for the precious barrier, even when we meet your skin at its most distressed.
