FAQ

Answers to your questions.

Who is Skin Distinct and where are the products made?

We are a young company from Austria based in Klosterneuburg near Vienna, specializing in scientifically based and effective treatment of skin and hair. Our products are manufactured in Italy (Milan). Our producer has been a market-leading manufacturer and specialist in dermatological cosmetics for more than 20 years.

Are Skin Distinct products organic or are they natural cosmetics?

Skin Distinct cosmetic products are scientifically based dermocosmetics. The choice of advanced, highly effective ingredients and their unique combinations are based on many years of experience and intensive research.

What does dermocosmetics mean?

Dermocosmetics are specific skin care products that meet the strict requirements of the pharmaceutical industry. These products are developed in cooperation with skin care experts (dermatologists, chemists, pharmacists).

Does Skin Distinct offer an alternative in the form of organic natural cosmetics?

Yes, we offer an exclusive selection of organic oils as an alternative in our range.

Are Skin Distinct products tested for compatibility?

The products are tested for compatibility and safety, vegan, not tested on animals, non-toxic, do not irritate the skin and contain no preservatives, no dyes and no paraffins.

What makes Skin Distinct products so unique?

Highly concentrated active ingredients (see products for ingredients) are enclosed in ultra-fine liposomes and thus penetrate deep into the skin (down to the dermis) and begin regeneration and cell renewal as part of the skin's natural processes. With these active ingredients, we give the skin only those active ingredients that it needs and can use immediately "on the spot".

What are liposomes?

Liposomes serve as protective capsules for active ingredients. Since they are made of the same building blocks as the cell wall of skin cells or the barrier layer, they can easily penetrate the skin and release the active ingredients into their surroundings like a depot.

What is a liposomal procedure?

A liposomal process is a formulation consisting of tiny (fat) bubbles, so-called liposomes. Liposomes are said to be absorbed better and faster and to enhance the effects of the ingredients.

Which skin types are Skin Distinct products suitable for?

Skin Distinct products are suitable for all skin types.

Are Skin Distinct products vegan?

Yes, Skin Distinct products do not contain any animal ingredients and are not tested on animals. Exception: the dietary supplement Marine Multi Collagen Complex.

I am allergic, can I use the products?

Skin Distinct products are "hypoallergenic". However, every skin reacts differently when it comes into contact with allergens. For this reason, many other harmless substances can also cause an allergic reaction. Consult your dermatologist before using our line.

Can I mix Skin Distinct products with other brands?

We recommend using products from the same line. If you use other brands, wait a few minutes. Using too many products from different brands at the same time often confuses the skin.
The confusion of active ingredients quickly throws them out of balance and can cause irritation. In addition, our products penetrate deeply into the skin, we can
We cannot guarantee the effectiveness and safety of our products if a “mixture” of products is transported into the skin.

What ingredients do Skin Distinct products contain?

Our active ingredients consist of very highly concentrated and strictly controlled plant substances. Most products use different types of peptides and, in the case of Hyaluron Filler, precursors of hyaluronic acid.

What are peptides?

Peptides are compounds made up of two or more amino acids. They are said to have strong anti-aging properties and are important building blocks of the skin. They give the skin a "boost" and can make it more resilient and stronger. Peptides also reduce the appearance of wrinkles and give the skin elasticity. That's why it's important to add peptides to your skin care routine.

Why is Skin Distinct’s hyaluronic acid different and special?

The patented formulation of our hyaluronic filler is based on glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine, which replenishes the body's own natural hyaluronic acid directly in the skin. Both active ingredients are transported into the deeper layers of the skin using liposomes.

What does hyaluronic acid do in the skin?

Hyaluron has a great property that makes it a moisture miracle: it can bind and enrich a huge amount of water molecules. This results in more volume and fewer wrinkles.

How long do you have to use Skin Distinct skin care until you see an effect?

First results of Skin Distinct skin care can be seen in the deep
Skin layers after about one week. A clear and visible improvement can take up to eight weeks. It is important to know that the older the skin is, the more time it needs for the sustainable regeneration process.

How long does it take for the skin to get used to new products?

A change can take up to a whole regeneration cycle: 28 days is how long the regular skin renewal process takes on average. The skin therefore goes through a complete renewal process every month.

Can the effects of injections with Botox & hyaluronic acid be prolonged?

Our line is particularly well suited to accompany intradermal treatments. The effects and results of the procedures can be visibly extended by several weeks with Skin Distinct products.

Why does Skin Distinct only have serums, fluids and no creams?

A serum is highly concentrated and formulated much more lightly than a cream so that it penetrates deeper into the skin layers. A cream consists of larger molecules and these are heavier. They therefore only supply the epidermis (the top layer of skin).

What is a fluid?

Fluids have, on average, a lower fat content. This means they can be easily spread over a large area and are immediately absorbed into the skin. Fluids are also suitable for oilier skin types that primarily need moisture.

At what age should anti-wrinkle products be used?

On average, anti-aging creams are recommended from the mid-20s, when the skin begins to lose moisture. From the age of 30, the first signs of skin aging usually appear - such as fine lines on the forehead and wrinkles around the eyes. From this point on, the skin needs more intensive care.

Skin Distinct also offers nutritional supplements (collagen). What does this have to do with the skin?

Skin Distinct Collagen contains a high dose of fish hydrolysate (10g) types I and III, vitamins and trace elements. It is recommended for a more beautiful complexion, stronger connective tissue, healthy joints and, with the vitamin complex it contains, to support the regeneration of hair roots and for the strength of nails.

How long does it take for collagen to work?

Accelerated regeneration can be seen after four weeks, and an improvement in skin, nails, hair and joints is seen after about three months.
noticeable. A minimum of five and a maximum of 10 g of collagen is recommended as a daily dose. For athletes, up to 20 g per day. The body uses the amino acids, vitamins and trace elements contained in the dietary supplement.

Is fish collagen better than that from beef or pork?

Fish collagen peptides have been shown to be 1.5 times easier to digest, absorb and distribute throughout the body. This means that marine collagen is more efficiently absorbed into the body and has superior bioavailability to collagen from bovine or porcine sources.

Where does Skin Distinct collagen come from?

Skin Distinct Collagen comes from a family-owned company in the EU with more than 25 years of experience with collagen. Only certified
Products of the highest quality are supplied, which allow for faster absorption in the body, help within just a few weeks and have an excellent taste.
