TRANSPARENCY
Transparency
We tell you exactly what is inside, where it comes from, and why it is there.
The Meaning of Transparency:
Transparency defines the relationship between DERMA-CODE™ and the people who trust our products.
It represents openness, accountability, and respect for truth in formulation.
We believe that every individual deserves to know what they are applying to their skin and why each ingredient exists within a formula.
We disclose every component using its proper INCI name, never hiding behind vague phrases or proprietary blends.
Our labels, inserts, and product listings are written with the same clarity that governs our formulation process.
Transparency is not a marketing concept for us; it is a standard of integrity.
Ingredient Disclosure:
DERMA-CODE™ provides full disclosure for every formula we produce.
We publish our complete ingredient lists and make clear which ingredients are active, functional, or supportive.
We avoid hidden blends or incomplete labeling that prevents users from understanding what they are using.
Our disclosure philosophy includes:
- Listing every ingredient by INCI name, in descending order of concentration.
- Identifying any ingredients that originate from specific sources, such as salmon DNA or soy derivatives.
- Stating potential allergens directly on both our packaging and online listings.
What appears on our label is what is inside the bottle.
Sourcing Integrity:
Each ingredient we select must meet our standards for purity, traceability, and ethical responsibility.
We verify supplier documentation, including Certificates of Analysis and safety data, before formulation begins.
Our sourcing priorities:
- PDRN (Sodium DNA): derived from purified salmon DNA using controlled extraction for consistency and purity.
- NAD+: stabilized coenzyme verified for bioavailability and integrity.
- Peptides: laboratory-synthesized biomimetic chains identical to those found in human skin.
- Botanical extracts: standardized for concentration, consistency, and safety.
All materials are sourced through facilities operating under Good Manufacturing Practice certification.
Label Clarity:
We believe that transparency extends beyond what we use to how we communicate it.
Our packaging and listings are written in plain, accessible language so users can easily understand both the composition and purpose of each product.
Key elements of our labeling approach:
- No misleading terminology or exaggerated claims.
- No ingredients added for marketing appeal without function.
- Consistent formatting of INCI names and concentration callouts.
- Clear allergen disclosure adjacent to caution statements when space permits.
Clarity ensures confidence, and confidence builds trust.
Regulatory Compliance:
All DERMA-CODE™ products comply with United States FDA cosmetic labeling standards and European Union MoCRA requirements.
Each formula maintains a complete technical file including stability data, safety evaluations, and labeling verification.
Batch codes, manufacturing dates, and expiration dates are clearly printed on our packaging to maintain transparency from production to use.
Compliance for us is not an external requirement but an internal expectation.
Ethical Responsibility:
Transparency extends to the way we manage environmental and ethical decisions.
We partner with manufacturers who maintain fair labor standards and sustainable practices.
Our packaging materials are selected for recyclability wherever possible, without compromising product protection or stability.
We do not test on animals.
We do not conceal ingredient origins.
We do not make claims that cannot be supported by data.
Our Promise of Openness:
DERMA-CODE™ exists to create products that speak for themselves.
Every ingredient is disclosed.
Every claim is accountable.
Every formulation decision is guided by respect for science and honesty.
Transparency is how we earn trust, and trust is how we define success.
