About DERMA

DERMA is a fictional skincare brand created to show the POLYMATH theme. Product descriptions are demo content, not medical advice.

We make short formulas around one key ingredient each, print its strength on the front of the bottle, and explain the rest in plain words.

How a formula is made

One active, stated plainly

We start from one ingredient and the strength at which it is worth using, then add only what the formula needs to feel good and stay stable. Anything else stays out.

  • The key ingredient and its strength on the front
  • The full ingredient list on the back, most to least
  • A patch-test guide with every new product

Four rules

What goes on the label

  • One key ingredient

    Each formula is built around a single active, so you always know what is doing the work.

  • The strength, in numbers

    10 %, 1.5 %, 0.05 %: printed on the front, not hidden in a list.

  • Nothing for show

    No fragrance, no colour and no essential oils in any product.

  • Packed to protect it

    Airless pumps for actives that dislike air, recyclable tubes for everything else.
