The Science
Behind Epicutis’ Biotechnology
OVER 20 YEARS OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
PRODUCT TRANSPARENCY.
PURE TRANSFORMATION.
EPICUTIS was born in one of the most advanced scientific laboratories in the world. Developed by Dr. Jeffry Stock, renowned biophysicist and tenured Professor in the departments of Molecular Biology and Chemistry at Princeton University, this first-of-its kind professional skincare brand applies the wisdom of drug research technologies to the development of topical ingredients and products.
For clinical practitioners, this means more than treating your clients to our patented “skin health heroes” in safe, ultra-gentle formulations. It also means we’re able to deliver the highest concentrations of these ingredients ever to grace your clinic’s shelves—in guaranteed 100% non-toxic formulas.
Dr. Stock spent more than a decade researching and refining a trio of novel ingredients that foster healthier looking skin.
TSC (tetramethylhexadecenyl succinoyl cysteine) is a novel molecule that acts as a super-lipid, dramatically improving skin’s natural barrier function while helping to shield it from a variety of environmental aggressors —including UV rays and pollution.
hyvia® a novel moisturizing agent derived from organic non-GMO chia seed oil, delivers stable potent omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids—working at the cellular level to help boost hydration, calm inflammation and fight fine lines, wrinkles and other visible signs of skin aging.
DSD (disodium S-phytyl diglycoloylcysteine) is a powerful, proprietary antioxidant that protects against environmental stressors by blocking UV and pollution induced skin damage.
THE FUTURE OF SKINCARE IS IN BIOTECH
Our supporting cast of formulation ingredients are deceptively simple. We let our novel ingredients have center stage without unnecessary stabilizers, fillers and fragrances. The result? Pristine formulas that deliver real results, without the reactions.
