Chercheur: Two Decades of Sensitive Skin Expertise
Chercheur is a brand born from a deep understanding of sensitive skin, developed by Koji Takaoka. For over 20 years, it has dedicated itself to researching, developing, manufacturing, and selling human-type ceramide cosmetics rooted in dermatology. This steadfast commitment to scientific rigor and gentle care has made Chercheur a trusted name among those with delicate skin.
The Philosophy Behind Chercheur’s Unique Formulation
Chercheur’s approach to skincare is meticulous, focusing on building a robust moisture barrier. Their unique formulation principles include:
-
Pure Human-Type Ceramides: Prioritizing human-type ceramides over pseudo or sugar ceramides for optimal skin compatibility.
-
Hybrid Ceramide Blend: Combining natural human-type ceramides with synthetic human-type ceramides to effectively construct a resilient moisture barrier.
-
Multi-Ceramide Approach: Incorporating multiple types of human-type ceramides to mimic the skin’s natural composition as closely as possible.
-
Comprehensive Lipid Support: Beyond ceramides, the formulations also include other essential stratum corneum lipids like cholesterol and fatty acids.
-
Balanced Ceramide Ratio: Carefully balancing ceramides to align with the natural intercellular lipid ratios found in healthy skin.
-
Advanced Delivery Systems: Utilizing “reconstruction-type lamellar” and “penetration-type liposome” ceramides that seamlessly integrate into damaged barriers.
-
NMF Integration: Including Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF) to further enhance hydration.
For those facing persistent sensitive skin challenges, Chercheur extends its support beyond products with complimentary professional counseling services. It’s truly a brand that strives to be the ‘one I was glad to meet’ for anyone navigating a sensitive skin journey.
