The chemists wrote a book.

Skincare Decoded compiles all our skincare education into one place. We answer questions like - Do you really need a ten-step skincare regimen? Is that $100 eye cream worth it? What's up with the CBD trend? Let's face it... we're all a little lost in the skincare world. This book breaks down the overly complex skincare industry and helps teach you to build your skincare routine like the chemists who make them. #skincaredecodedbook

FROM THE AUTHORS

@chemist.confessions

We did it! We compiled all our zainy skincare notes into one place. It's all so pretty, organized, and all the pages have color. Who knew that this whole venture as two cubicle buddies would lead us here!

You might not know this but this all started because of an auspicious friendship. We happened to be two skincare formulation chemists that worked for the same big beauty company and soon became quick friends because we shared the same (lousy) sense of humor. But more importantly we also shared the same frustrations with the skincare industry. It was confusing, laced with crazy marketing claims, and some of the price tags were making our brains short circuit.

Chemist Confessions and Skincare Decoded is just about decoding the skincare world to make your skincare do better for your skin. Whether you've been a part of the Chemist Confessions journey all along, or you've just discovered us through this book, we hope the book can help guide you on your next skincare purchase with a few laughs along the way. And as always, if you have any questions, write to us!

Your Friendly Neighborhood Chemists,
