About This Site
This site is a small editorial archive of writing on skincare science. The articles here cover topics ranging from skin barrier function and the surface microbiome to the design of clinical trials in skincare, the realities behind common marketing claims, and the current state of evidence on emerging ingredient categories.
What this site is
The content here is editorial and informational. It is written for readers with an interest in understanding the underlying science of skincare beyond marketing copy.
The intent is to summarise what the published research literature suggests, where the limits of current understanding sit, and where headline claims tend to outrun the evidence.
What this site is not
This site does not provide medical advice. The content here is not a substitute for consultation with a dermatologist, general practitioner, or other qualified medical professional.
Anyone considering changes to a skincare regimen for a specific concern - acne, rosacea, atopic dermatitis, post-procedure care, or any other condition should seek individual professional advice.
The site also does not claim to be exhaustive. Skincare science is a wide and active field, and the articles here cover only a small subset of topics of interest to the editors.
