Meet Skin Formulas: A powerful skincare range designed for your specific skin type

Gone are the days of complicated skincare regimens! Created by an Irish aesthetician with over 20 years of experience, this simple yet effective skincare range targets your skin's biggest needs.

The skin’s microbiome is maintained by a delicate balance, and any disruption in that balance can lead to a range of skin concerns – dryness, oiliness, blemishes, redness – the list goes on…

So how can you ensure you’re using the right skincare ingredients to maintain this balance? After all, shopping for skincare is far from black-and-white. Unlike cooking, there’s no clear-cut recipe to follow. Instead, you must learn what your skin is lacking (or overproducing) and then counteract with targeted ingredients.

Skin Formulas founder Geraldine Jones recognised this exact issue. Working as an aesthetician for over 20 years and opening her own clinic Mediskin in Tipperary, she saw many of her clients confused and overwhelmed by the amount of complex skincare available.

Geraldine had worked with almost every skincare product imaginable and realised that women were looking for a simple but effective solution to address their complexion concerns. So, with that goal in mind, she founded Skin Formulas in 2019, drawing on her industry expertise and her drive to help people feel good about themselves.

Meet the range

Made with the core ingredients our skin needs, Skin Formulas is championed for its innovative use of active ingredients and bespoke approach. Its base range consists of an Oil and Milk Cleanser, Hydra (hyaluronic acid serum), Day Cream and Night Cream.

Designed for all skin types, the Oil and Milk Cleanser gently removes make-up and impurities from the skin’s surface. It glides onto the skin as a beautiful oil, and once emulsified with water it melts to a conditioning milk, allowing for ample hydration post-cleanse.

We’ve all heard of the hydration benefits of hyaluronic acid serum, but what makes Hydra unique is its multi-weight, three-tiered approach. It stimulates your skin’s natural production of hyaluronic acid and collagen for long-term results – reducing fine lines and wrinkles, boosting moisture and leaving skin softer, healthier and plumper. 

This luxurious, non-comedogenic daily moisturiser is infused with pure lavender essential oil and enriched with antioxidants to help improve skin’s firmness, elasticity and luminosity. And, of course, no routine is finished without SPF and this day cream has broad-spectrum SPF50 for whatever your day entails.

This revitalising night cream has powerful antioxidant properties designed to visibly reduce dryness and brighten the skin within two weeks. It also restores the skin with prebiotics and resveratrol, which work together to maintain a healthy barrier function.

Skincare heroes

If you struggle with blemishes, this skin treatment will revolutionise your skincare regimen. Clear is a prebiotic that soothes inflammation and reduces redness within two weeks, while maintaining a balanced microbiome. It helps regulate sebum and lighten acne marks without irritating or drying out the skin’s surface. Plus, it can be used post-laser, waxing and threading.

As a harsher active ingredient, retinol isn’t for everyone. Bakuchiol is a plant-based alternative that delivers the same anti-ageing benefits. This lightweight and award-winning formula helps improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, increases skin firmness, evens skin tone and texture, and plumps skin by stimulating the natural production of collagen and elastin.

If you’re unsure of which products are right for you, Skincare Formulas has a quick and easy skincare quiz available on their website. Answer a few questions, and they’ll build you the best skincare routine for you.
