WellSource Nutraceuticals launches intensive skin therapy

MERRILLVILLE, Ind. – WellSource Nutraceuticals, a startup located in Purdue Research Park of Northwest Indiana, has released Redermify Intensive Skin Therapy lotion and cream, which is hypoallergenic and shown to alleviate severely cracked skin. Redermify was developed by a pharmacist while working with podiatrists and dermatologists to alleviate severely cracked, dry skin using a patented pH maintaining formula.

The Mayo Clinic states that more than 50 percent of adults over the age of 40 experience dry skin. Atopic Dermatitis, more commonly known as eczema, afflicts 31.6 million people in the United States, according to the National Eczema Association.

“I was largely challenged by this group of podiatrists and dermatologists to create this formulation. They were just absolutely emphatic about finding a solution,” said Brett Dines, founder and formulation scientist of WellSource Nutraceuticals. “We developed it in both lotion and cream forms to fully address customer needs.”

The skin care products are able to achieve efficacy through a buffer system that keeps the pH in a narrow range. That allows all of the active ingredients to work simultaneously, allowing the skin to achieve hydration. The formulation is able to accomplish this while being hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic and paraben-free. This means the product is unlikely to cause allergic reactions or block pores and that it does not contain synthetic preservatives.

The product is available for sale on Amazon or it can be purchased directly from the Redermify website.
