Cosmeceutical Skin Care
The term cosmeceutical combines the words cosmetic and pharmaceutical. It generally refers to skin care products that contain higher concentrations of active ingredients compared to standard cosmetic products. These formulations are often discussed in relation to supporting skin health.
Cosmetic products available in supermarkets and salons may also contain active ingredients, though typically at lower concentrations. Cosmeceutical products, on the other hand, are usually formulated with higher levels of these ingredients, and sometimes a combination of several. Their use, suitability, and potential benefits should be discussed during consultation to determine whether they are appropriate for your skin.
