What are Cosmeceuticals?

“Cosmeceuticals” are a combination of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. For example, retinol plus face cream or antioxidants plus lip balm. 

Cosmeceuticals create a cosmetic product to act in a medicinal way. It’s just a fancy way to say we made a product in our lab that's going to make you more beautiful. It's going to be more therapeutic than a drugstore brand, but can still be bought over the counter. 

We're about to launch our own cosmeceutical line at Designer Drugs, and we're so excited about it! What makes this even more exciting is we have an in-house cosmeceutical lab, so if we can dream up a combination (and believe me, we can) we can create it!

Follow us on Facebook and Instagram @designerdrugspharmacy to be the first to know about our new cosmeceutical line coming soon!
