Science Driven Skincare for Safe + Advanced Results

Unclear about what separates good skincare from great skincare? Clear, glowing skin requires more than a clean skincare ingredient list. Science-based formulations are how you achieve optimal skin-perfecting results.

Get nerdy with us and explore how combining carefully selected ingredients with science-backed encapsulation technologies and delivery systems drives superior, healthy skincare results.

Why Manufacturing Matters for Skin Care

As a protective barrier, our skin works hard to protect us, keeping anything that might harm us from entering our bodies. Its safeguarding efforts bar the entrance of skincare ingredients it perceives as harmful invaders, making it challenging for products to get through and hindering efforts to achieve beautiful, healthy skin.

So, how do we ensure our products will do what you want them to do (i.e., deliver their intended benefits)? That’s where strategic ingredient sourcing and science-backed green technology come into play!

Ingredient Sourcing for Compatibility

Imagine your skin as a locked gate guarding your well-being and requiring a key or passcode to gain entrance. By choosing skin-friendly, clean skincare ingredients that “fit” into the keyhole (the skin), we open the door to enhanced skin transformation.

Beginning with ingredients compatible with the skin versus those that don’t fit and could harm your skin’s health is just the beginning of what separates our formulas from the competition.

Why Manufacturing Is Important

Let’s chat about what really makes a difference in skincare. It’s not just about the ingredients but how they are put together. Many ingredients struggle to penetrate the skin effectively, so we don’t get all the benefits we’re hoping for. Plus, some powerful ingredients like Vitamins A and C can lose their effectiveness quickly.

Safety First

Purity is Pevonia’s #1 priority. Each clean, non-toxic formulation begins with pure, pharmaceutical-grade water that is sterilized, filtered, and de-ionized. We use natural preservative alternatives, like Vitamin E and encapsulation technologies, to provide the freshest, safest, and most effective skin products.

Potency + Technology Produces Results

Pevonia utilizes green technology to enhance skincare potency. So, why can’t you apply raw ingredients alone to achieve a natural glow?

We have skin receptors in our skin, which act like a welcoming committee. If an ingredient looks unfamiliar, is too large, the wrong shape, or otherwise harmful, your skin sends them packing. To solve this, we chirally correct bioavailable ingredients. What does this mean? Chiral correction is simply a high performance molecular skincare process that eliminates potentially harmful parts of an ingredient and keeps the best. This ensures the molecules will fit seamlessly (no forcing or WD-40 required!) and reduces irritation.

We employ advanced science backed skincare technologies to enhance ingredient stability and absorption, ensuring maximum results. For instance, Vitamins A and C are inherently unstable and oxidize when exposed to air, requiring extraordinary measures to avoid diminished product efficacy.

Triphase Creams: Have you ever made salad dressing and witnessed oil and vinegar refuse to mix without added measures? Similar means are necessary to create moisturizer. Most creams are oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsions using synthetic ingredients to emulsify the oil and water. This often creates product pilling and an uncomfortable sensation that something is on your skin.

Pevonia is one of the only brands that adds this extra step for moisturizers, going beyond the norm, and creating silky triphase formulations that highlight the importance of manufacturing for skin care excellence. Each of our fast-absorbing, velvety, and weightless formulas protect, provide controlled active release, and dose skin in extra moisture.

Homogenization: These are two key reasons why manufacturing matters in skin care. For products to spread and absorb optimally, ingredients must be small and evenly sized. We use high pressure to ensure better dispersion and absorption. We also adjust temperatures during processing to help the product penetrate deeper into the skin.

Encapsulation + Delivery Systems: We use tiny capsules to house active ingredients and provide vehicles to help ingredients penetrate deeply and work better longer. Here are our results driven skincare delivery systems that surpass basic product formulations:

• Microsphere System: A special time-release illuminating system using phospholipids to deliver Diacetyl Boldine in our Lumafirm® Line. It has been proven to decrease hyperpigmentation by up to 33% in a majority of study participants after two months of use, plus block stress receptors and free radicals.
• Biomimetic Micro-Liposome: Liposomes in skin care products enable key ingredients to pass through the outer layer of the skin, facilitating and expediting delivery. In our Lumafirm® products, Liposomes are composed of Seaweed-derived Peptides enclosed in multiple round microstructures that mimic the skin, assuring compatibility and maximum penetration. They are effortlessly released throughout the day, delivering a radiant, glowing complexion.
• Spherulites: This advanced multi-layer technology encapsulates Papaya and Pineapple Enzymes, ensuring product potency. Like jawbreaker candy, exposure to water and friction triggers the release of these Enzymes for superior deep cleansing and exfoliation.
• Oxyzomes: This liposomal encapsulation technology stabilizes Vitamin C for maximum bioavailability and to keep it effective longer. Remember the advertising slogan, “How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?” Layers of Vitamin E protect the Vitamin C, like the candy shell of the Tootsie Pop. And when you get to the center, the goodness gets released. Not a fan of Tootsie Pops? Think of Oxyzomes as eggs; once you crack the shell, the nutrients within are ready to nourish your body.
• Micro-Retinol®: To avoid irritation often tied to Retinoids, we combine Retinol with a special Enzyme, gentle ingredients, and additional antioxidants in our Micro-Retinol® Collection for a Vitamin A,C,E skin-perfecting trifecta.
• Micro-Matrix: Want fast relief of breakouts? This time-released blemish-fighting delivery system provides steady, even dosing of Salicylic Acid, Lactic Acid, and enzymatic Mushrooms all day long for rapid skin-clearing results.
• Tegospheres: We use a sponge-like micro-capsule with Retinol in our Pevonia De-Aging Body Balm - Papaya-Pineapple that preserves ingredient potency and stability. It is released upon application to effectively manage aging and sun damage on the body.
