Philab's distinction lies in the exceptional efficacy of our products, achieved through the generous inclusion of numerous active ingredients, all carefully formulated with high concentrations to cater to the diverse requirements of your skin.

Unlike many skincare products, even those in the higher price range, which often contain minimal amounts of active and anti-aging ingredients primarily for marketing purposes, Philab takes a different approach. Our products feature active ingredients in clinically studied quantities, specifically chosen for their proven benefits to the skin. This results in highly effective solutions that tackle various skin aging concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, dryness, uneven tone, texture, under-eye bags, dark circles, and skin firmness.

Philab products are founded on the principles of advanced skincare, utilizing innovative, clinically proven ingredients. We understand that addressing various skin concerns requires a multifaceted approach. Instead of relying on a single active ingredient, Philab's formulations leverage the synergistic effects of multiple clinically active ingredients. This holistic approach ensures that our products effectively target a wide spectrum of aging issues, delivering comprehensive results for your skin.

Philab products are created to cater to a diverse range of skin types, and this includes men as well. Our dermatologically tested formulations are equally effective on combination, dry, oily, and sensitive skin. In essence, anyone seeking to proactively prevent, protect, and address the signs of aging will benefit from our products.

Our products are formulated to deliver a range of benefits, including the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles, enhanced skin tone uniformity, improved elasticity, skin firmness, optimal moisture levels, and a rejuvenated appearance around the eyes, resulting in smoother and radiant skin. You'll notice an improvement in the look and feel of your skin within just a few days of use. For more substantial improvements in wrinkles and skin tone uniformity, visible results can typically be observed with consistent product use over a period of 2-4 weeks.

The Philab skincare range provides cumulative benefits to your skin but does not permanently alter its structure. If you stop using our products, your skin will gradually revert to its pre-Philab state, as it will no longer receive the ongoing benefits of the clinically proven active ingredients found in Philab products.

Skin reactions can vary from person to person when introducing new products. While Philab products have been extensively tested on a wide range of skin types without any irritations or adverse reactions observed, individual skin sensitivity can differ. We recommend daily use of our products, but if you experience any irritation, it's advisable to reduce the frequency of use, such as transitioning to every three days, and gradually reintroduce daily use as your skin becomes accustomed to the Philab treatment. Your skin's well-being is important to us, and we encourage you to customize your skincare routine to suit your unique needs.

Philab products are meticulously crafted to accommodate all skin types and combat the factors contributing to skin aging. Our comprehensive range, from cleansing to correction, is designed to work in harmony, delivering the skin with the essential mechanisms for protection and reinforcement. While our products are designed to be effective on their own, some individuals may have specific preferences or needs that necessitate additional products. In such cases, it's possible to incorporate other products alongside Philab, but our formulations are carefully balanced to provide complete skincare solutions.

Neither the final products nor the individual ingredients used in Philab formulations contain parabens. We are committed to offering products that are free from parabens and other potentially harmful ingredients.

It is essential to exercise caution regarding skincare ingredients during pregnancy and breastfeeding, as some may pose adverse effects on both you and your baby.

Although Philab products are crafted with the considerations of pregnancy and breastfeeding in mind, focusing on safe, anti-aging ingredients such as vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, peptides, niacinamide, and moisturizing components like plant extracts and oils, there are two products recommended to avoid during these periods:

• Gentle Exfoliating Cream, due to its concentration of salicylic acid (even low).
• Extra Moisturising & Anti-pollution Cream SPF25, because it contains chemical UV filters.

Generally, be cautious of the following ingredients, which are better to avoid due to potential risks:

• Salicylic Acid (High-concentration): Safe in low doses, but high concentrations could pose risks.
• Chemical Sunscreens: Ingredients like oxybenzone may impact fetal development; mineral-based sunscreens are preferred.
• Retinoids (Retinol): Known to interfere to fetal development, these vitamin A derivatives are not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
• Benzoyl Peroxide: The safety of this ingredient is debatable; consulting a healthcare provider is advisable.
• Hydroquinone: Its high absorption rate through the skin raises concerns.
• Essential Oils: Contain chemicals that can be absorbed by your body, meaning they have the potential to cross the placenta and reach your growing baby.
• Formaldehyde and Releasers: These chemicals, known for their preservative qualities, could be harmful.
• Parabens and Phthalates: As potential endocrine disruptors, these are best avoided due to possible links to developmental and reproductive issues.

Consultation with a healthcare professional is strongly recommended for personalized skincare advice during these significant times. Your safety and your baby's well-being are top priorities.

Philab is committed to cruelty-free practices. We have not conducted animal testing on our products, nor have we commissioned third parties to do so. Our raw material suppliers are held to rigorous standards, ensuring full compliance with applicable regulations, especially those related to animal testing.
Our products are manufactured within the European Union, where testing finished cosmetic products on animals has been banned since 2004. In 2009, this ban was extended to include ingredients used in cosmetic products, aligning with the Cosmetics Regulation.

At Philab, we are passionate about the synergy of science and nature in skincare. While our formulations do contain a significant number of natural ingredients, including botanical extracts and nourishing oils, we do not solely define ourselves as "natural" skincare. Our unique approach is anchored in science, emphasizing the meticulous fusion of scientific innovation and natural goodness.

Our commitment to safety is unwavering. We consciously avoid the use of potentially harmful ingredients like parabens and similar compounds, always prioritizing the well-being of your skin. This means our formulations often integrate a combination of both natural and scientifically developed ingredients. This fusion allows us to deliver skincare products that are not only effective but also luxurious.

While we do not restrict ourselves to the "natural" label, we are dedicated to providing you with the best of both worlds – the proven benefits of science and the wholesome qualities of nature. Transparency is fundamental to our brand, and you can readily access comprehensive ingredient lists for each product on our website. Making informed decisions about your skincare routine is our shared goal. Welcome to the world of science-enhanced skincare, where your skin receives the care it truly deserves.

The order in which you apply your products can have a significant impact on their effectiveness. Here's a recommended order for your skincare routine using Philab products:
Cleanser: Start with a gentle cleanser to remove impurities, makeup, and excess oil. This prepares your skin for the products that follow.
Toner (if used): Apply a toner to balance your skin's pH levels.
Serum: Apply Philab's serums, which contain active ingredients like peptides and hyaluronic acid. These products are designed to penetrate deeply and address specific skincare concerns.
Eye Cream (if used): If you use an eye cream, gently apply it around the eye area to target concerns like fine lines and puffiness.
Moisturizer (Morning/Night Routine): Apply a moisturizer, such as Philab's moisturizing products, to lock in hydration and create a protective barrier for your skin.
Sunscreen (Morning Routine): If it's your morning routine, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 25 to protect your skin from UV damage.
Exfoliation and mask: Incorporate exfoliation and masks into your evening routine once or twice a week after cleansing and before applying your regular skincare products.

We recommend storing your products in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, as exposure to heat and light can affect their stability. Room temperature is ideal for preserving the integrity of our formulations. Storing your products properly, not only maintains their efficacy but also ensures a longer lifespan for your skincare items.

Our products have a shelf life of 30 months when unopened and stored at room temperature. However, once you've opened the product, we recommend referring to the period-after-opening (PAO) symbol on the packaging to determine the product's specific lifespan. In general, most of our products have a PAO of 9 months, while our Bio-molecular Lightening Serum has a PAO of 6 months.

At this time, we do not offer samples.
