Course description

View Course Outline

Companies which consider pigmentation as the only important parameter in developing ethnic skin products miss an excellent opportunity to develop a truly elegant and effective product that delivers to the consumer so much more.

This accredited online course will summarize some of the physiological differences between skins of different ethnicities, of which melanin content and composition is but one parameter.

Gender-linked differences will also be quickly summarized, to allow the attendees to grasp in deeper detail the ethnic differences such as skin sensitivity and susceptibility to skin disorders. This will be done by analyzing chemical, biochemical and cellular characteristics observed in different ethnicities

Upon completion of this course, you will be able to:
• Discuss the basic physiology and chemistry of pigmentation
• Describe some of the physiological differences between the skins of different ethnicities
• Explain the basic skin care needs of ethnic skin
