“Breakthrough” Innovations
Over the last 18 months, the biotechnology discovery platform launched OS-01 EYE – a topical product that treats the skin around the eyes – and OS-01 SHIELD, the first facial sun care product scientifically proven to undo past UV aging and protect the skin from advanced UV aging with 100% mineral UV filters, powerful antioxidants and the OS-01 peptide.
Seven years in the making, the breakthrough significance of the OS-01 peptide was recognized in June 2023 by the scientific community through the publication of OneSkin’s research in Nature Portfolio Journal Aging (npj Aging), a peer-reviewed journal and part of the Nature Publishing group of scientific journals. A 12-week double-blind, split face clinical study to evaluate the effects of OS-01 FACE and the OS-01 peptide on skin in human subject has recently been published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology.
Instrumental analysis revealed that the formula with OS-01 significantly improved skin’s barrier function and texture, improved skin radiance and promoted a progressive reduction in wrinkles compared to the vehicle formulation (the peptide-free version of OS-01 FACE).
