Founded in 1997, SkinCeuticals emerged from decades of skin cancer research by its founding scientist, Dr. Sheldon Pinnell. His pivotal, peer-reviewed work on topical antioxidants, particularly the stabilization of L-ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), established the brand as an authority in the cosmeceutical field. This research led to the Duke Antioxidant patent, which sets the gold standard for effective Vitamin C formulation and is exclusively licensed to the brand. SkinCeuticals was one of the first companies to partner directly with physicians, making its high-potency, clinical-grade products available through dermatologists, plastic surgeons, and medical spas.
