About Epicutis

Founded in one of the most advanced scientific laboratories in the world, Epicutis is a medical-grade luxury skincare line; developed in the US by Jeffry Stock, Ph.D., professor of molecular biology at Princeton University, and Japanese scientist and formulator Masanori Taumura.

Epicutis offers science-based skincare that treats skin health with small-batch formulations and complete transparency. Its products are formulated exclusively with non-toxic, patented actives and highly concentrated therapeutic ingredients.

The Science

Dr. Stock spent more than a decade researching and refining a trio of novel ingredients that foster healthier looking skin, used across the Epicutis range.

TSC also known as tetramethylhexadecenyl succinoyl cysteine, is an innovative compound with remarkable properties as a super-lipid. It effectively enhances the skin's innate barrier function, providing significant protection against a wide range of environmental stressors, such as UV rays and pollution.

Hyvia®, a groundbreaking moisturizing ingredient extracted from organic, non-GMO chia seed oil, offers a reliable source of potent omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. This unique compound operates at the cellular level to effectively enhance hydration, soothe inflammation, and combat the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and other visible indications of skin aging.

DSD also known as disodium S-phytyl diglycoloylcysteine, is an exceptional and potent proprietary antioxidant. It serves as a robust shield against environmental stressors by effectively inhibiting skin damage caused by UV rays and pollution.
