Science-Backed Radiance

Why Did We Create Qualia Skin?

We created Qualia Skin for a few reasons. 

The skin is the largest organ in our body: it’s complex and has a lot of important jobs— environmental shield, padding, insulation, cooling, light absorber, vitamin maker, detox, and more. The role of skin in doing its jobs is vastly underappreciated. This is especially true from an inside-out perspective - from how what we consume feeds the skin, to the importance of the gut-skin microbiome axis gets too little attention. Qualia Skin changes the conversation around skin health.*

One of the main roles of skin is to shield us from and help us adapt to, the environment we live in. Some of us are great matches to the environment our skin interacts with; many of us are not. All of us, but especially the mismatches, can use extra nutritional support to bridge the gaps between nutrition the skin can use, and what it gets. It would be great if all of us were better able to adapt to all types of skin stress. Qualia Skin was created with supporting this type of resilience.*

Skin is a reflection of inner health and what type of life we’ve led. Consciously and unconsciously, it is used by others to perceive how healthy, attractive, and old we are. The brain evolved to figure this out (it’s part of evolutionary biology); it uses clues like skin glow, evenness of tone, texture, wrinkles, and more. If we want our skin to appear younger and healthier at any age—most neurohackers we know do—the skin can’t be an afterthought. But, if we only worry about the superficial appearance of the skin, we might be missing the inner health piece. And, if we’ve been ignoring the skin’s needs, outer appearances may not as accurately reflect inner health. Qualia Skin fosters beauty from within, it was formulated to support both beautiful skin and vibrant health.* 

The skin’s sense of touch feeds the brain a wealth of information about the world around us. The brain takes this large amount of sensory data and gives birth to “qualia,” the subjective experience of a sense, which unsurprisingly, is a word we love. Put simply, there’s a skin-brain connection that’s used to understand and make predictions about the outside world. We are Neurohackers ...when the brain’s involved we’re interested. Qualia Skin was formulated first and foremost with skin health and appearance as goals, but we’re Neurohacker Collective, so Qualia Skin has ingredients that support brain health and performance as the cherry on top.*

As we age, starting even by our mid-20’s to 30, structure and functions in the skin subtly but progressively change. We think that understanding and addressing these changes lends itself to a complex systems approach, which is something we pride ourselves on. We felt we could make a big contribution. Qualia Skin is it.* We are excited to share it with you.
