Founded in 2019, Typology Paris introduced a new take on the skincare industry. With an analogy to better the world rather than be the best, the company has seen significant growth with consumers and how to further expand their products to reach people all over the world with various skin types and concerns. There have been numerous online-based companies that sell their skincare directly to the consumer, rather than through prescription via a dermatologist, yet Typology focuses on 100% French ingredients that generate high quality products and a team of health and science experts.
“When we create our formulas, we make sure you'll be able to understand every ingredient used in them.”
-Typology
With the emphasis on simplicity and efficacy, Typology agrees to be "ingredient transparent" to allow their consumers to better understand what is not only going on their skin, but also what is going through their skin cells. The company also calls for sustainability for the environment, meaning their products are true to the statement that they are vegan and eco-conscious. Along with the luxurious feeling of the serums and creams being smoothed on your skin, you’ll find the packaging to be exquisite from glass containers to protect formulas to Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) paper packaging to guarantee there’s no illegal deforestation involved in your purchase.
The concept of having their products be 100% French validates the European standards, which ban over 1,000 ingredients that are toxic to humans and the environment. However, Typology goes further in understanding that even legal ingredients can have harmful impacts. Thus leading the company to refuse to add chemicals to their products that are still deemed dangerous beside the European regulations.
In regards to being manufactured solely in France, Typology also encourages its consumers to complete their diagnostic test before trying any of their products for efficient quality that works with their skin, rather than against it. Their main focus is you, the user, and the uniqueness of your skin type. Every diagnostic test corresponds with your answers to your questions; one person’s results won’t equate to another. In the test, you will be asked a series of questions (e.g. top skin concern, how your skin feels if you don’t apply some form of moisture, etc) to help determine the best regime for you! What stands out from other online-based skincare companies is Typology’s system gathers the data you entered, then breaks down the products they recommend through “The Matrix” segment after your results.
The Matrix is a chart that concentrates on 24 types of skin that are sectioned off into three criteria: skin aging, oxidation factors, and sebum production. Not sure what these terms mean? Skin aging has to do with the elasticity of your skin along with the pigmentation. Oxidation factors have to do with impacts of UV radiation, pollution, and more that can drastically change your skin’s health. Finally, sebum production is a term that most people, who adore skincare, are familiar with: the activity of sebaceous glands and your oil barrier. The three criteria are also represented through letters and a symbol. For instance, if you’re labeled as an AE(•), then your skin aging (classified by the "A") would be absent, oxidation factors (the "E") would be exposed, and sebum production (in this case "•") symbolizes balance.
This system advances the consumers' comprehension of their skin, and how many factors in their environment can impact the health barrier. However, do not feel discouraged with all the details they listed about your skin because their team of experts gives you some products to test based on your results. The prescription segment, which will be first visible once you complete the diagnostic test, gives you an AM and PM regime to follow. The team makes sure to continuously highlight that the prescription is “specifically designed for your skin typology and concerns."
Regarding their product line, you can find more whether that be with lip care or even hand care. There are endless products to test out that align with your standards and more. On their bestsellers list, you will find the Radiance Serum with “11% vitamin C” that will brighten your face and also restore skin barriers. Usually, with authentic vitamin C serums, you’re looking to spend a hefty amount. However, Typology’s focus is to maintain a simple formula for an efficient price; you’ll be surprised and amazed with the results once you purchase! Another product on their bestsellers list is the 9-ingredient face moisturizer. That’s right — only nine ingredients that are essential to moisturizing your skin from hyaluronic acid to O-cymen-5-ol (added to limit the risk of infection).
Become part of the Typology family and begin your journey of effective skincare with the diagnostic test; your skin will thank you!
