A Gut Pharmacist's Quest To Save Her Daughter’s Skin
"13 years ago, my daughter was born with a rare skin condition no one could solve. As a Doctor of Pharmacy, I became obsessed with understanding why some ingredients helped while others hurt.
At 40, my skin declared war - breakouts, dark spots, hyperpigmentation hit. No medical-grade, natural, or prescription product worked.
Until I connected my gastroenterology work: skin problems aren't about the ingredients. They're about the ecosystem.
Your skin is like your gut. It has a microbiome evolved over 200,000 years that decides whether it’s healthy or not.
Most women think inflammation, pigmentation and dark spots are just part of aging. It’s not. It’s a side effect of modern life - and it’s 100% reversible.
Now at 48, my skin is better than ever, and it has been that way consistently since using these products."
The Science
THE MICROBIOME CRISIS™
Your skin works like your gut - when good bacteria die, absorption stops.
Modern life and traditional skincare commit bacterial chaos and destroy your skin’s microbiome with parabens, phenoxyethanol, and wrong pH levels.
Now your skin's locked shut like a damaged gut. Over time, melanocytes produce pigment chaotically. Dark spots multiply. Sudden breakouts happen.
OUR PHYTO CLINICAL FITZPATRICK FORMULATION™
Took 3 years and 15-20 iterations per formula to achieve the impossible: maximum-strength actives in a stabilised formula that supports beneficial bacteria. We spent $40,000 proving this synergy works - maintaining pH 5.0, preserving your microbiome, while delivering clinical-grade actives deep into the skin.
Fix the ecosystem, unlock absorption, watch everything transform.
$40,000 Study, Not “95% Saw Results”
Many skincare brands use subjective consumer surveys claiming "95% saw results." We take a different approach, investing over $40,000 per formula in objective clinical testing on 3D human skin models. After 15-20 formulation iterations, each product is validated in specialized labs that measure microbiome disruption, barrier integrity, and hydration at the cellular level.
This is measurable, scientific validation, not dubious marketing claims.
*Based on clinical testing conducted on 3D human skin models
