Gold Level InnovatorRecognised by Innovate NI for how we develop new products, with support from Invest NI.
How the products are made
Every formula was developed with experienced cosmetic chemists and is made in regulated facilities, to UK and EU cosmetic regulations. Each product has a full safety assessment on file, and every ingredient is listed in full on its product page and on our ingredients page.
The five Skin in Evolution™ skincare products are certified under COSMOS Organic. The certification covers the ingredients, how they're sourced and processed, the manufacturing process and the packaging. It's audited independently, not self-declared.
What we test
Safety. Dermatological testing on human volunteers for every skincare product before launch.
Real use. Before launch, 11 people aged 30 to 65 used the full routine for six weeks. We published every result, including the ones that weren't 100%. Read the trial.
The LED Face + Neck Mask
The mask has 234 LEDs, 114 in the face panel and 120 in the neck panel, using 630nm red, 830nm near-infrared and 415nm blue light, with six modes and adjustable brightness. It's made from medical-grade silicone and comes with silicone eye protectors and a full user manual. It isn't suitable for everyone: the product page lists who shouldn't use it, including during pregnancy and with certain conditions and medications. Follow the manual and seek medical advice if unsure.
How we make claims
Skincare in the UK is cosmetic, not medical, and we write like it. We say a product supports the appearance of firmness or elasticity, because that's what cosmetic skincare does. We don't say it tightens, lifts, treats or reverses anything, and we don't use before-and-after images that haven't come from real users of the routine. When we quote someone from our trial, we label them as a trial participant.
If you ever see a claim on this site you think goes further than the evidence, email hello@elastikskin.com. We'd rather fix it than defend it.

Your body transformed. Your skin deserves to catch up. You did the hard work. But GLP-1 weight loss changes your skin in ways ordinary skincare was never built for. This is the five-stage routine I wish I'd had — every product with a purpose, working as one.
THIS. WORKS. After 12 months on GLP1 and a 22kg weight loss I was looking, well, a little 'deflated'. These products actually work to smooth and improve skin texture. Whilst I plan to not 'inflate' again, this regime is a keeper. Good investment.
