SKINIUS was born on January 18, 2008 and we cannot fail to thank those who, always or recently, choose our products every day for their skin. But how was Skinius born? Behind this made in Italy skincare company there are no business plans or strategic plans: there is a real and heartfelt dermatological need, which led Mariagrazia Boniardi, biologist and researcher, to believe in an innovative idea, which today is the mission of the brand: happy cells for the most sensitive skin thanks to high-performance and delicate anti-aging formulas.
Who is the founder SKINIUS
Mariagrazia Boniardi, graduated with honors in biology, after completing her studies, began to undertake a career as a teacher and researcher. The birth of Skinius came a few years later, by pure chance, following an increasingly delicate and sensitive skin that brought the biologist closer to the world of cosmetics in pharmacies. Mariagrazia's skin revealed itself with each passing year to be more reactive and intolerant to any type of product; this uncomfortable situation convinced the doctor to undergo patch tests that brought to light various allergies such as nickel, perfume and parabens.
I tried and tried various “free of” formulations but without success: my problem was not resolved and I could not find a cream that was right. I could have taken antihistamines and cortisone to calm the discomfort and skin blemishes, but, as a biologist, I preferred to listen to my skin and understand what it wanted to tell me.
The turning point for Mariagrazia came with her studies on phospholipids extracted from soy, biocompatible with the skin's cell membranes. This prodigious raw material, widely used in the pharmacological field, helps promote cell regeneration and is useful for the integrity of the surface hydrolipidic barrier. A few years later, Dr. Boniardi intuited the potential of combining phospholipids with glucosamine, a precursor of hyaluronic acid, with very hydrating properties. Phospholipids and glucosamine thus gave rise to the Fospidina complex, present in all the products of the SKINIUS The Doctor Is In anti-aging dermocosmetic line and in a very high percentage in the FOSPID Active Serum .
The line was created to respond to skin problems related to ageing, even in the case of sensitive skin. All products are designed for the dermatological patient in terms of efficacy and tolerability. In addition to the basic safety tests required by the European Cosmetic Regulation, we have thoroughly tested the more targeted performance of our formulations with solid instrumental and clinical tests, under dermatological control. These tests were conducted on 221 volunteers who tested the dermocosmetic products of the Skinius The Doctor Is In line with excellent results through 33 tests in groups of 20 to 60 volunteers depending on the product. The excellent results make us confident in the tolerability for a large number of skin types.
From skincare to supplements: IN&OUT routine
Since the development of the Fospidina complex, Mariagrazia's studies have evolved into a concept of IN&OUT beauty routine where the cosmetic is combined with the food supplement, outlining a new type of anti-aging treatment . As a biologist, Mariagrazia is aware that, by definition, the action of the dermocosmetic affects the epidermis, while the supplement can also reach the dermis from the inside. For this reason, Skinius' best seller is the IN&OUT Antiage Booster protocol with a very high concentration of the Fospidina complex, where the action of FOSPID Active Serum is enhanced by the FOSPID.IN supplement. Yes, because the Skinius line is designed for sensitive skin, but, above all, to prevent and reduce all those skin blemishes related to skin aging.
Those who choose SKINIUS find high-performance anti-aging formulations that respect all skin types. The mission is to respond to the needs of sensitive skin in search of high-performance anti-aging formulations. An essential product line for all skin needs, at any time of the year and in life.
SKINIUS is skincare made in Italy
Behind SKINIUS there is also the desire to protect and promote Made in Italy : the entire skincare production chain is, in fact, developed in Italy with Italian suppliers, from the research of raw materials, to the formulations, up to the development and production of packaging.
Mariagrazia Boniardi also believes in conscious beauty, which translates into a positive lifestyle, a healthy diet rich in seasonal fruit and vegetables, and constant physical activity.
Skinius = from the English skin (leather) and the Latin ius (right) because the skin has the right to be treated with science and conscience
With Skinius we want to improve the quality of life of cells, enabling them to produce more collagen and elastin, essential for bright and compact skin. Quality, scientific rigor and passion for dermatology are the secret of SKINIUS, the company that makes #happycells its mission.
