SkinCeuticals: Antioxidant Skincare Backed by the Duke Antioxidant Patent

SkinCeuticals was founded in 1997 on the research of Dr Sheldon Pinnell, a dermatologist at Duke University whose work established the formulation standards for stable topical vitamin C, now known as the Duke Antioxidant patent. The brand, part of L'Oréal since 2005, is the number one medical aesthetic skincare brand worldwide and follows a three-step philosophy: prevent with antioxidants, protect with sunscreen, correct with targeted serums.
