Hi everyone and Welcome to the The Code of Style Magazine., and a review of “Dr Skinfeed” : Beauty care that is more than skin deep. Do you know what you’re putting on your skin? Grab your face serum / mask/ body lotion and take a good, hard look at the ingredients list. Do you understand (or even recognise) the ingredients?
What you put on your skin gets absorbed into your bloodstream, eventually making its way into your body. So, if you wouldn’t want to eat it, you don’t want to bathe in it either!
So, today, I want to introduce you to a new all-natural, cruelty-free and sustainable skincare brand that just launched, Dr. SkinFeed.
Dr. SkinFeed is not just here to provide safe skincare products, but also to inform and educate on why these products and ingredients work. They understand that most people don’t have a chemistry degree or the time to google every ingredient’s background story. Which is why you can find every ingredient used in their products listed on their website, (as well as on the bottle) along with an explanation of what they do. They stand by transparency and the goodness of the earth, using nature as their guide and science as their support.
We want to bring awareness on the ingredients people are using and give them the option to make a change.
Sarah, Co-founder
Dr. SkinFeed was founded on the idea that the earth is filled with goodness, and Mother Nature gave us everything we need to nurture our skin and body. Since skin is your biggest organ, they truly believe in feeding it with the best naturally derived ingredients.
They believe Mother Nature is the key to pure, clean beauty both inside and out and understand the importance it plays not just internally, but also in nurturing your skin. Which is why they’ve spent years sourcing the rarest and cleanest ingredients for their products that are 100% natural and safe.
For example, they’ve sourced and replaced the commonly used skincare ingredient retinol, with Bakuchiol, which is a gentle, plant-based retinol alternative.

The Gua Sha’s custom design helps lift, tone and sculpt your face to make you feel and look like a Goddess.

It increases blood circulation, helps with lymphatic drainage, and penetrates your skincare products deeper into your skin, leaving you with an instant glow.
You should never use on a dry face, but use with the day or night oil above. For best results use their orange blossom or rose water mist, then apply the day oil or night oil, and begin your Gua Sha ritual. Always begin with the neck and work your way to your face, in long upward motions. Don’t worry if your face begins to turn slightly red or pinkish as you begin to stroke it, it just indicates that your blood is circulating and cellular turnover is beginning.
