FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Are Dr. Loretta products vegan and/or cruelty-free?
Yes! All Dr. Loretta products are 100% vegan and cruelty-free.
What is "skincare for the real world™"?
Dr. Loretta’s approach to skincare formulation is rooted in the skin aging exposome theory, suggesting that at least 80% of unwanted skin changes can be attributed to the exposure to real-world environmental aggressors like pollution and sunlight. Every product from the brand is formulated with high concentrations of proven actives and effective botanical ingredients to help prevent and improve damage caused by the four key damaging factors we face each day: pollution, light, climate conditions and irritating ingredients.
What are Dr. Loretta's Qualifications as a Skincare Authority?
In 1975, a bright and excited medical student took a summer job in the Photobiology Lab of Harvard Medical School; she had no idea it would spark her path to becoming a skincare visionary. Dr. Loretta Ciraldo was one of the first to perform early testing on the effects of UVA on human skin in the days before broad-spectrum sunscreen was created and contributed to the development of the Fitzpatrick Skin Type Classification.
Dr. Loretta Ciraldo is now a practicing board-certified dermatologist for more than 41 years and has performed tens of thousands of total body exams where she's seen an increase of damage in skin exposed to the world (like your face!) compared to the skin protected by clothing (like your lower back). As no other skincare line on the market was designed to address this discovery holistically, she created one herself.
