Skincare brands
like fashion come and go.
Over the years I have seen the tried and true and my recommended brands are based on scientific research & results I have seen over the years.
Below are some of the most reputable brands, they are delegated into 3 Levels based on Price.
All are accessible nationally via Chemists, national clinics & high end cosmetic clinics - locations will be supplied.
Cosmetic versus Cosmeceutical?
These are all Cosmeceuticals - they create a change to the skin using active ingredients.
A Cosmetic like Olay, Dior, Estee Lauder, Neutrogena etc. are not active (smell nice, feel nice) but do not make an active change.
Level 1
