Pharmacy cosmetics are creams, serums, tonics and lotions created by dermatologists according to strict quality standards.
Unlike popular supermarket cosmetics, cosmeceuticals are created from selected ingredients, each of which has been proven effective and safe in clinical studies.
Pharmaceutical market expert Nikita Lagoda explained why it is worth buying cosmetics in pharmacies.
You are unlikely to find jars with hyped but absolutely useless components in a drugstore. Creams with 24K gold, pearl extract and even silk are designed to bring profit to the company, but not to benefit the skin.
Active additives in pharmaceutical cosmetics are usually contained in higher concentrations, penetrate deeper into the skin, and therefore have a more pronounced effect.
Some creams and lotions contain such a high dosage that they are sold strictly by prescription. Because if used incorrectly, they can cause harm to the skin.
Another bonus in favor of cosmetics from the pharmacy is a reduced risk of allergies. After all, cosmeceuticals contain a minimal amount of preservatives, dyes and flavors.
And strict pharmaceutical standards for storage and transportation guarantee the quality of the products.
