Taking care of my skin
has always been very important to me – when I was in high school I suffered
from hormonal, cystic acne. I still have an occasional breakout but now that
I’m getting older I’m more concerned about dullness and fine lines. I’ve been a
fan of SkinCeuticals for years! In college I worked at a beauty store that sold
SkinCeuticals and I was always so fascinated when we had speakers from the
brand come to train us about the products. The science and innovation behind
each product was really eye-opening. So, I was really excited when
SkinCeuticals reached out about their new Custom D.O.S.E treatment. They
invited me to an event at the Glass Houses in Manhattan with leading
dermatologist Dr. Charles Boyd of Boyd Beauty, who gave me a consultation and
assessed my skin type. Dr. Boyd took the time to explain the ingredients
available and showed me all the different options to create my own Custom
D.O.S.E treatment.

Emulsion Base
Kojic + Niacinamide
Licorice + Mulberry
Retinol
After the assessment, we
determined we would focus on brightening with a small concentration of retinol
to protect against fine lines. My specific formula is EB457 with 0.1% retinol.

Once the three
components were chosen, Dr. Boyd showed me to an incredible machine: every
ingredient that can be put in this serum is in there, and will automatically
fill the bottle with your selection! It was so cool to see each ingredient
being measured out exactly in the machine and going right into my custom
bottle! After the ingredients were layered into the bottle it is put into the
top of the machine that spins incredibly fast to blend together the components.
I’ve been using my Custom D.O.S.E serum every other night for about 2 weeks and
I’ve already noticed a change in my skin. The retinol has helped to make my
skin softer and reduced my occasional acne. My skin is brighter and smoother. I
highly recommend this service as it’s a great way to get a custom lab-grade
product made just for you. I always advise investing in your skin!
