    A Natural Difference

    To create a new formulation, is like creating an orchestra. You need to select the right instruments for the best sound and vibrations and a conductor who knows how to place them. We need the delicate sound of a violin, the deep sound of the drums and trumpets for their powerful beat and sound. The same applies in a formulation. By only selecting synergistically working ingredients, it will work for the most sensitive and compromised to the strongest stubborn breakouts.

    Advanced Aging or Melasma needs the power of the drums and trumpets, where delicate and sensitive skin needs the string orchestra.

    To create a new formulation, is like creating an orchestra. You need to select the right instruments for the best sound and vibrations and a conductor who knows how to place them. We need the delicate sound of a violin, the deep sound of the drums and trumpets for their powerful beat and sound. The same applies in a formulation. By only selecting synergistically working ingredients, it will work for the most sensitive and compromised to the strongest stubborn breakouts.

    Advanced Aging or Melasma needs the power of the drums and trumpets, where delicate and sensitive skin needs the string orchestra.

  • Ep 307 – The Rogue Pharmacist: Vitamin E

    As estheticians, we're constantly on the lookout for ingredients that nourish and protect the skin, and vitamin E is often at the top of that list. But beyond the buzzwords, do we really know why it's so effective in skincare? In this episode with Ben Fuchs, we discuss the different forms of vitamin E, client outcomes where vitamin E is particularly important, and whether vitamin E enhances the effects of other skincare actives.

    Associated Skin Care Professionals (ASCP) presents The Rogue Pharmacist with Benjamin Knight Fuchs, R.Ph. This podcast takes an enlightening approach to supporting licensed estheticians in their pursuit to achieve results-driven skin care treatments for their clients. You can always count on us to share professional skin care education, innovative techniques, and the latest in skin science.
