‘Skeyndor introduced a generation to stem cells in skincare’

When it comes to choosing a skincare brand that caters to all your needs, it’s crucial to know what goes behind curating those perfectly-packed products. With growing time, people are swiftly shifting to science-backed skincare brands which prioritize ingredients supported by scientific evidence and utilize advanced technologies to formulate their skincare solutions. With a focus on efficacy and safety, science-backed skincare brands strive to address various skin concerns, from aging and acne to hydration and sensitivity. And that’s where Skeyndor enters the chat!

Established in 1966, Skeyndor was founded by Publio Puente and Juan Morcillo, pioneers in high-end professional skincare. The brand is known for its research since its establishment and today, it stands proudly as a global icon, reaching approximately 50 countries. Since its introduction in India in August 2011 by Mr. Ravi Mittal, Skeyndor has captivated skincare enthusiasts and rightfully earned its status as a beloved brand. The best part? Their professional care products are the cult-favourite picks at some of the most luxe salons in the capital, typically used to curate skin and body care treatments.
As Skeyndor commemorates over 50 years at the forefront of professional skincare, we recently attended a much-insightful event hosted by the brand and got in a fun chat with its global CEO, Mr. Jordi Morcillo, to gain a deeper understanding of the brand.

What is the origin story behind Skeyndor?

“Established in 1966, Skeyndor has its roots in a collaboration between my father and his colleague, both esteemed professors at Spain’s premier scientific academy. Drawing upon their technical expertise, they embarked on the journey of creating an advanced cosmetic range. The inspiration behind this venture stemmed from a sister’s complaint about the lack of advanced technology in skincare. The name “Skeyndor,” is actually a French term signifying ‘golden skin,’ and it encapsulates the dream that began with two Barcelona-based scientists in the late 60s.”

What sets Skeyndor apart and what value does it offer to consumers?

Skeyndor distinguishes itself as a family-owned company, founded by scientists rather than marketers. Science is ingrained in its core values, and the technology infused into its products is unparalleled. Multiple teams of scientists across various universities engage in thorough research to deliver optimal results for skin health.

What upcoming products can we anticipate from Skeyndor?

“In 2008, Skeyndor took the lead in introducing a ground-breaking generation of stem cells in skinecare, incorporating plasma into our offerings. Our most recent launch, the Eternal line, represents a transformative evolution after more than 15 years on the market. This exceptional line has been reformulated to enhance the regenerative potential of plant stem cells and leverage the rejuvenating properties of plant plasma rich in cellular factors. Eternal by Skeyndor goes beyond conventional skincare, stimulating regeneration across every layer of the skin and effectively reversing the cellular aging process known as senescence. The outcome is visibly rejuvenated and re-densified skin, embodying the essence of eternal beauty.”

Living in an urban setting, our skin goes through way more than we can imagine, on a daily basis. With signs of ageing and dullness showing up faster than ever, it’s crucial for us to incorporate the right ingredients in our skincare regime. Skeyndor is introducing a new technology to impede aged tissues from reproducing, with the formula featuring an active ingredient—plant plasma rich in cellular factors. This component proves effective in reversing the process of cellular deterioration or senescence, a key element in rejuvenating the dermal layer. The formulation combines the precision of biotechnology with the beneficial properties of plant actives, uniting science and nature seamlessly. This potent combination works on the diverse tissues of the skin, targeting the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis, thereby stimulating cell regeneration in each layer. With the New Eternal line, we achieve a visibly rejuvenated, re-densified, and younger-looking skin, revealing the secret to eternal beauty.

The range includes five homecare products: the Extraordinary Redensifying Serum, Redensifying Cream, Rich Redensifying Cream, Redensifying Eye Contour, and the Redensifying Night Oil.
