Manufactured in Parma, Italy, utilizing electricity from renewable resources and fully recyclable components: glass, sugar cane-derived plastic (Green PE), safety-certified aluminum and FSC-certified paper. The slashes of the Skin Regimen logo are a symbol of the brand modernity. They describe the multi-tasking, creative nature of modern careers typical of Millennials and the Gig-economy. The new Skin Regimen Urban Longevity Facial™, available in spas and selected stores, is the antidote to modern fatigue and urban lifestyle. Customizable to correct specific stress-related signs, it rejuvenates the skin and leaves you feeling recharged and ready to face your busy days. Thanks to exclusive massage techniques inspired by Qigong and modern physiotherapy, and the Skin Regimen Macro Waves Sound™, this facial is ideal for a time-pressed, unisex clientele with stressed, dull and aging skin. For the launch, the brand will introduce “Fast Times, Slow Aging”, a reference for urban lifestyle written by Dr. Claudia Aguirre, which will be available on the official website. Dr. Claudia Aguirre, Los-Angeles based neuroscientist and member of the Company’s Scientific Committee, has also collaborated on the products and treatment development, providing the latest and most relevant neuroscience behind stress, lifestyle aging and the mind-body connection.
Many of the external factors we face every day, such as UV and pollution, as well as our daily choices such as smoking, diet, and the quality of our sleep and thoughts collectively result in Lifestyle Aging. These factors alter the skin’s normal cellular processes, particularly these four: DNA methylation, glycation, oxidation and inflammation. Once these processes become imbalanced, they contribute to cellular breakdown and eventually hinder skin health, even in biologically young skins.
Recent studies show that the skin not only reacts to psychological stress triggered in the brain, but it’s also able to independently produce some stress hormones, in response to environmental aggressions, like too much sun or pollution. Skin cortisol overproduction is one of the elements that in the short term makes us look tired, fatigued and older, and over time fuels inflammation and oxidation, accelerating the overall aging process.

Modern plant chemistry™.
Skin Regimen formulas are designed to be totally functional, with highly concentrated powerful botanicals and hightech molecules. With a natural aroma and cooling massageable textures, they are free from synthetic fragrances, silicones, animal derivatives, artificial colorants, mineral oils and parabens. Featured throughout all products is the Longevity Complex™, an exclusive mix of organic superfood extracts, with antiinflammatory Wild Indigo, modulating excess cortisol and boosting beta-endorphins, Maqui Berry, with powerful antioxidants anthocyanins, anti-glycation Spinach** and Carnosine. Spinach also promotes a correct DNA methylation. The natural rebalancing, reinvigorating aroma is a genderless, modern blend of four essential oils, Juniper, Copahu, Rosewood and Cedarwood. The beneficial properties of these oils reflect the nature of the trees from which they are extracted: these woods and resins are known for opening our consciousness, providing the strength and endurance needed to face life’s challenges, as well as healing wounds of an emotional nature. Tested to be below the allergenic level for the comfort and safety of the skin, the aroma has been clinically tested and found to be “not irritating”, based on 48 hours closed patch test under Semi-Occlusion, on 25 people, 18-70 y.o.
Mind and skin empowerment.
A modern skincare approach that empowers you from the inside out, working on the skin to improve the mind - and on the mind to improve the skin. In cooperation with Prof. Andrea Sgoifo, Stress Physiologist of the University of Parma, Skin Regimen has been clinically proven to improve the stress response. An innovative, independent pilot clinical evaluation, based on ECG recordings, saliva sample collection and psychometric/ behavioral testing, has been conducted on 20 women, 25-50 years old, who have applied Skin Regimen Microalgae Essence and Tripeptide Cream following the Skin Regimen Mindful Massage Ritual, twice a day for 28 days. These have been the impressive improvements in response to acute psychosocial stressors: Immediately - Positive stimulation of the neural component, associated with well-being, relaxation and protection from stress-related disturbances. After 28 days - Inhibition of cortisol activation. - Reduction of the perception of anxiety. - Improved behavioral coping strategies.

The sleek, minimalistic black design reflects the contemporary, genderless, urban attitude of the brand. The exclusive use of black and white makes it timeless. Black is a color that absorbs and contains everything, our internal and external world. Our outer self and our inner essence. Black unites everything.

There’s no barrier between their everyday life and the life they desire. They are what they want to be. The face representing the brand is a young, determined woman with an attitude, curious and full of life. She is on a quest, to become the best version of herself in the world. The shoot was done by Stefano Galuzzi, a fashion photographer from Milan with years of experience under his belt and notable collaborations with magazines such as Vogue and GQ. The city pictures are lively and artistic. The X-Ray photography of botanicals symbolizes the science of the Skin Regimen Modern Plant Chemistry™ formulations.
