Frequently Asked Questions

PhytoSpherix® is documented in five published clinical studies (S-1178 through S-1182), conducted in collaboration with Mirexus Biotechnologies and Mibelle AG Biochemistry. Three are in-vivo studies in women aged 51–65 (S-1180, S-1181, S-1182) and form the basis of every consumer claim Veriphy makes. The two laboratory studies (S-1178, S-1179) document mechanism research — published on our Science page in a clearly labelled Mechanism Research panel.  Read the studies →

Most clean skincare brands lead with what they have removed. Veriphy leads with what it adds — specifically, a plant-derived bioactive documented in five published clinical studies in women aged 51–65. Clean is a baseline qualification. The clinical evidence is the reason to choose us.

Yes – our studies show that our skincare products perform well for all skin types (oily, dry, and combination).

Here's how we recommend you use our products in your routine:

1. CTRL+ALT+DEL CLEANSER: Use your fingers to massage your cleanser into your skin for 20-30 seconds. Then take a warm washcloth and drape it over your face for 10 seconds. Finally, gently wipe the cleanser away.
2. HIT OR MIST FACIAL TONER: Spray a few spiritz’s of “Hit or Mist” toner onto your face. You can wipe off the toner or let it absorb, your choice.
3. POWER TRIP SERUM: Once a day, apply Power Trip Facial Serum to gently exfoliate the skin's surface and help improve the look of skin texture for a visibly smoother complexion. Let the serum soak into the skin, do not wipe it off.
4. SELF ABSORBED MOISTURIZER: Use the Self Absorbed Facial Moisturizer to help provide lasting surface hydration, improve the look of skin fullness, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
5. 20/20 EYE CREAM: Finish with our award-winning 20/20 eye cream. Gently pat at a half pea-sized drop under and up the side of the eyes.

We’ve designed our products around sensitive, aging skin and paid particular attention to every raw material - each ingredient selected was purposeful. We avoid materials that are known to be comedogenic or irritating, like fragrances.

Unfortunately, everyone is different and we just cannot guarantee how our products will work with every skin. We recommend to try the Discovery Kit, this way you can test all the products with low risk and see how your skin reacts.

Yes, our products can help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. No cosmetic on the market will eliminate deep wrinkles, but being consistent with high quality formulas and the right ingredients will definitely give great results!

Yes, you can use the serum if you are using a retinol but we recommend alternating days of usage if you have sensitive skin (using retinol and Power Trip at the same time can cause sensitivity for some people).

If you are using retinol 2-3 times a week, use the Power Trip serum the other nights when you aren't using retinol. And as always, you should be using an SPF during the day. 

Yes, Power Trip serum can be used alongside a peptide serum if you like. PhytoSpherix® is a plant-derived glycogen clinically shown to help improve the visible
appearance of skin hydration and smoothness. It can be used alongside a peptide serum or in place of one.

It is always best to consult with your doctor before using any new skincare products. The PHYTX 04 | Self Absorbed Facial Moisturizer and the PHYTX 05 | 20/20 Eye Cream are pregnancy safe, while the PHYTX 03 | Power Trip Facial Serum contains lactic acid as well as other naturally occurring alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs). Generally, it is best to avoid AHAs while pregnant.

One of the many tests we do on our products is called a "Freeze-Thaw" Test - this test challenges the formula for cold and hot scenarios (e.g if it's delivered in the winter and sits in the snow on your doorstep or in the summer during extreme heat).

We freeze the formula for 24h, let it thaw for 24h, heat it up in a 40C oven for 24h, then finally let it rest at room temperature for another 24h to see how it performs. This process is repeated for 3 cycles and measured to see how the formula holds up. All of our products are required to pass this test and have.

Our products are composed of approximately 95% naturally derived ingredients. We opted to use synthetic alternatives where necessary to maintain our vegan and cruelty-free position.

All of our products are free from sulfates, parabens, mineral oil, phthalates, silicones and fragrance.

All Veriphy Skincare products have a shelf life of 2-3 years, when stored in a cool (room temperature), dry place. If you would like to know more information regarding storage, feel free to email us at info@veriphyskincare.com.

As scientists we believe in testing everything! We run multiple tests on each product to ensure their safety, quality, efficacy, and packaging compatibility.

You can read more about them in our blog post "Test it until it’s perfect"

Because of the high concentration of natural ingredients, it is a little more difficult to achieve the exact scent or texture between batches. However, when we run production, our QC team will always test the batches to ensure it is within reasonable spec so we minimize the differences in scent or texture that may occur with using natural ingredients. Each batch may not be EXACTLY the same, but the differences should not be noticeable.

We recommend storing in a cool dark environment, ideally away from high humidity or excess moisture. This being said - we test in a number of different environments during stability and compatibility testing and the products will be fine either way up to 3 years.

Our products don't contain any ingredients with gluten. However, we are not a gluten-free facility and we cannot guarantee that products did not get in touch with material that contain gluten.

No — never. Veriphy is Leaping Bunny Certified cruelty-free, and we hold our ingredient suppliers to the same standard.

Our choice to be cruelty-free is the same as why we chose to be vegan - it was unnecessary to test on animals and it is the right, ethical thing to do.

Yes. We are Cert Clean Certified. At Veriphy, we strive to give you the highest quality clean products that provide you with the results you deserve!

• Sulfates
• Parabens
• Mineral Oil
• Phtalates
• Fragrances
• Silicones
• Ethoxylated ingredients (PEG)

Our products are composed of approximately 95% naturally derived ingredients. We opted to use synthetic alternatives where necessary to maintain our vegan and cruelty-free position.

Our packaging is recyclable, except for a tiny spring located in the pump mechanism of the bottle. You can take the bottle apart to recycle the glass component, straw and lid. We are working towards 100% recyclable packaging.

Yes they are! This means we don't have any animal-derived ingredients in our products. We chose to go vegan as a more ethical and sustainable approach to the industry. We felt it was unnecessary to use animal-derived ingredients when so many plant and safe synthetic ingredients existed.
