PROUD TO BE

CONSULTATION-LED

Skincare is recommended after an in-clinic assessment of your skin, not in place of one.

PROFESSIONAL POSITIONING

Formulated for professional use alongside in-clinic treatments, with realistic expectations set.

EVIDENCE-LED ACTIVES

Every key active is chosen on published ingredient research, referenced on its product page.

Resurfacing Cleanser combines cleansing agents with lactic acid, Centella asiatica and skin-conditioning ingredients to remove daily impurities while providing a controlled exfoliating step. Designed for dull, uneven or textured skin, it offers an alternative for customers who want exfoliation within their cleansing routine rather than relying exclusively on stronger leave-on acids.

06 — THE EVIDENCE

THE EVIDENCE, NOT JUST THE CLAIM.

Skincare marketing can make almost anything sound impressive. We would rather show you the research.

Our Evidence Library connects key active ingredients with published research so you can understand what has been studied, how it was studied, and how relevant that evidence is to the product you're using. Research on an ingredient does not automatically mean the finished Beyond Skin formulation has been clinically tested. When the evidence applies to an ingredient rather than our finished formula, we tell you. No blurred lines. No invented percentages. Just better-informed skincare.

How to Use

01Massage a small amount onto damp skin, avoiding the immediate eye area.
02Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
03Introduce gradually — start a few times a week and build as tolerated.
04Because this product contains exfoliating acids, use a broad-spectrum SPF during the day.

SCIENCE & CLINICAL REFERENCES

The research behind the actives in this product

These references relate to the individual active ingredients, as studied in published research. Unless an entry says otherwise, they are not clinical trials of the finished Beyond Skin formulation — ingredient-level evidence does not mean the finished product has been clinically tested.

01
INGREDIENT
Lactic Acid
AUTHOR / STUDY
Lactic acid — AHA exfoliation literature.
JOURNAL
American Journal of Clinical Dermatology
YEAR
2003
EVIDENCE TYPE
MECHANISTIC / REVIEW EVIDENCE
WHAT WAS STUDIED
Ingredient evidence supports AHAs as surface exfoliants. In a rinse-off cleanser, contact time is short; exfoliation benefit is surface-level.
RELEVANCE TO THIS INGREDIENT
For surface exfoliation and a smoother, brighter-looking complexion.
Evidence from leave-on lactic-acid formulations cannot be transferred automatically to a rinse-off cleanser. No collagen claim is made for this cleanser.

INGREDIENT
Centella Asiatica
AUTHOR / STUDY
Centella asiatica in skincare — review literature.
JOURNAL
Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine
YEAR
2021
EVIDENCE TYPE
REVIEW
WHAT WAS STUDIED
Evidence is largely mechanistic and review-based; it does not mean this cleanser heals wounds.
RELEVANCE TO THIS INGREDIENT
For soothing and skin conditioning alongside exfoliation.
Do not interpret soothing support as wound healing or medical treatment.

INGREDIENT
Sodium Hyaluronate & Emollient Oils
AUTHOR / STUDY
Humectant and emollient ingredients — review literature.
JOURNAL

YEAR
2022
EVIDENCE TYPE
MECHANISTIC / REVIEW EVIDENCE
WHAT WAS STUDIED
Mechanistic and review evidence for humectancy and emollience.
RELEVANCE TO THIS INGREDIENT
For hydration, softness and comfortable cleansing.
We do not claim jojoba “rebalances sebum” or that macadamia treats mature skin. Injectable HA research is not evidence for a cleanser.

04
INGREDIENT
Retinol (if confirmed in the final INCI)
AUTHOR / STUDY
Retinol in skincare — review literature.
EVIDENCE TYPE
REVIEW
WHAT WAS STUDIED
Any retinoid evidence is ingredient background only. This is a rinse-off formulation, and outcomes from leave-on retinol trials cannot be transferred directly to this cleanser.
RELEVANCE TO THIS INGREDIENT
Subject to formulation verification.
VIEW STUDY

We separate ingredient-level evidence from finished-product clinical evidence. Where research investigates an ingredient, we say so. Where it investigates a finished formulation, we say that too. We do not present one as the other.
