How many times have you seen cosmetics sold using images of celebrities or 'proven' by self-observation only?
Did you know that research and client studies using the MikanisTM range was presented at the Hong Kong International Forum on Plastic Surgery and Cosmetic medicine?
It seems like no big deal, but virtually no cosmetics are presented at major medical conferences. Until now, that is.
Bespoke skin care -- bringing ancient wisdom to modern skin.
During a childhood in India, Dr Sharad Paul had noted villagers rubbing oranges on skin. Intrigued by this vision, and in the belief that ancient remedies have great wisdom he researched orange skin and other ancient remedies. It is this fusion of ancient wisdom and modern biotechnology that is the cornerstone of Baci Cosmetologie
Every time you visit a cosmetics store or supermarket, you are faced with countless choices. We'd pick science over emotion - don't fall for celebrity endorsements - this is the kind of choice that will lead to amazing and lasting improvement in your skin.
We are NOT into fairness creams as we strongly believe in the uniqueness of brown skin and our founder's book Skin, a biography discusses this. Therefore, what do we mean by whitening? Whitening in the context of MIkanis means reduction of pigmentation and lessening tanning effect in brown skin. Both our day cremes (whitening and smoothing) and indeed and all our products have a unique anti-pigmentation and anti-aging cocktails made from natural extracts. The whitening day creme contains some instant whitening effect so can be used instead of makeup in brown and Asian skin.
Somewhere in pure New Zealand, we formulate our products and manufacture in theUSA(probably the only people to outsource to the USA). In Australia and New Zealand, these products are currently available online only as individual orders are shipped direct from our manufacturing facility. The Mikanis MD range is brought to you by Baci Cosmetologie; Baci Cosmetologie was founded by Dr Sharad Paul. Dr Sharad Paul MD M Phil, teaches and researches skin and skin cancer medicine, and was a finalist for the 2012 New Zealander of the Year Award. Look out for his book Skin, a biography recently released by Fourth Estate.
We do not use any parabens, any formaldehyde-donors, any urea-derivatives, or any isothiazolinones as preservatives. Importantly, we understand the needs of the modern life -- hence our day cream can be used with any make-up product, is non-greasy and long lasting and our sun-screen is of organic origin. Our products also have a long shelf-life of 2 years.
For Brown Skin, By Brown Skin
For many years I've been frustrated by lack of products for my brown skin. I've been astounded that many people in India are using sun-tan lotions or sunscreens designed for white skin, thereby causing increased tanning or darkening of skin (which is the opposite of what they are trying to achieve).
After 14 years of prototype testing, we are now ready to address the needs of brown skin, with our Mikanis MD daily treatment.
Be proud of your skin. I am.
