Skintific

 Science-based skincare routine

To celebrate its 'offline' operations, through physical presence in Watsons drugstores, skincare label Skintific mounted an exhibit at The Block of SM North Edsa. The label showed skin care enthusiasts their range of products, as well as conducted skin tests through their analyzer. The skin analyzer is a 5-second test to determine one's skin type and skin age (due to sun damage and unprotected exposure to solar rays).

"Skintific was born out of a simple idea: To make science-backed skincare easy and enjoyable for everyone. We saw that many people were overwhelmed by complicated routines and unclear product claims. So, we worked out with dermatologists and scientists to create formulations that are effective, gentle, and easy to understand.

"Our brand philosophy is "Science Meets Beauty." We believe skincare should be rooted in proven scientific research but still feel like a daily self-care that you look forward to. We focus on delivering visible results while keeping products safe and enjoyable to use," shared Skintific Philippines' head of online operations Jessie Zou.

Before its physical presence in Watsons outlets, Skintific was available online. In January 2025, the brand was in 700 Watsons stores nationwide, and soon in all other Watsons outlets. The competition in the skincare business is stiff, both locally and globally.

"We combine advance active ingredients with soothing formulations, so you don't have to choose between efficacy and comfort. Every production goes through strict testing, and we design them to fit into simple routines - no 12-step programs - just the right products that really work together.

"Skintific is for anyone who values both results and skin health. Our products work for people with sensitive skin, busy lifestyles, or those just starting their skincare journey. We especially connect with consumers who want clear, straightforward solutions without the guesswork," Zou continued.

For whatever skin concern, there's a range for it. Their skin care products are priced from Php 300 to 600, while their cosmetic line sell from Php 400 to 600.

Their patented TTE (trilogy triangle effect) formulation technology targets both outer and inner skin barriers to hydrate it.

"Be consistent. Skincare is a routine, not a one-time fix. Follow the recommended steps such as cleansing, treating, moisturising, and protecting.

"Pair products correctly. Our ranges are designed to complement each other. For instance, toners are essential when using serums. Always wear sunscreen during the day to protect your skin, and the regimen you've been working on. Listen to your skin, too! Adjust usage if needed and don't be afraid to keep it simple," Zou added.

Formulated in a Korean lab, the label is marketed as an Indon/Chinese product. To date, it is the No. 1 skincare brand in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand.
