SkinQ Mirror is India’s first facial analytics AI/artificial intelligence lead technology for analysis of Indian Skin Quotient created by Celebrity Cosmetic Dermatologist Dr Chytra Anand, chief Formulator at SkinQ for Indian skin / skin of colour.
Indian skin is different from other skin types mainly due to the content of melanin/pigment and the way the skin reacts. Some of the common skin issues faced by Indian skin are acne/pimples, hyperpigmentation/blotchy skin, dehydration/sensitive skin, open pores, and skin tone/skin complexion issues.
The SkinQ Mirror is a culmination of a detailed study of the Indian skin to help Indians understand their skin quotient better. Just like our IQ ( Intelligence Quotient ) and EQ ( Emotional Quotient), the skin also has a quotient that determines the health of the skin.
The Skin Q Mirror analyses data points on the skin and gives out a reading between 0-100. Over 90 is the healthy skin quotient and zero being distressed skin.
One should aim to have their skin in the 90 and above Skin Quotient range for healthy skin, after all, healthy skin is critical to overall health as skin is the largest organ in our body and the first immune barrier.
Only by Understanding our skin quotient, will we be able to use an appropriate skincare regimen that would be best suited for Indians to achieve overall healthy glowing skin.
The idea behind the Skin Q mirror is for transparency and knowledge for Indian consumers to use skincare that is actually suited to their skin and helps in their decision-making and to have realistic expectations.
Normally when you visit a dermatologist, the skin doctor will consult and help you with your skincare. Today most consumers shop online and look for products first and only visit a dermatologist if they don’t get the results they desire .. or worse, get an adverse reaction due to improper use.
As an ethical skincare company at SkinQ, SkinQ Mirror was developed to bring transparency into skincare product use. This is a bridge between beauty and science and not a substitute for medical advice.
