FAQ

Product Overview

    What is OS-01 and what does it do?

    OS-01 is a topical supplement you apply to your face, neck, and hands after cleansing. It is a proprietary peptide designed to extend your skinspan on a molecular level by improving internal markers of skin health and external markers of skin strength.

    OS-01 reduces your skin's biological age and improves the skin barrier. OS-01 also increases skin strength on the surface level by optimizing the molecular health of your skin, OS-01 improves the external strength of your skin. Feel and look your best with firmer, smoother, and more hydrated skin.

    What is a topical supplement?

    Just like taking vitamins everyday for general health and immunity, our topical supplement delivers OS-01, a proprietary peptide that extends your skin health (aka your skinspan). Unlike other skincare products that offer short-term solutions (and might even cause long-term damage), we target the root causes of aging on the molecular level for long-term results, and by applying it topically we ensure that the benefits are going where they should be.

    How long will my OS-01 supplement last?

    We estimate the 50 ml bottle of our Topical Supplement will last approximately 2 months when used as directed.

    Is your topical supplement safe?

    Yes, OS-01 is completely safe. We’ve applied the same scientific rigor into formulating a safe product as we did for effectiveness. EWG rates ingredients on a scale of 1-10, with a score of 1 being the safest and healthiest. OS-01 received an average score of 1.08 and a weighted average of 1.02. Our supplement was tested for human sensitization (RIPT - a clinical study to assess skin irritation) and various other toxicity tests, and no adverse effects were determined.

    How does your topical supplement compare to retinol?

    Retinol works to target the symptoms of aging (ie. fine lines and wrinkles) by stripping the skin of its cells on its outermost layer in order to make room for younger, healthier cells. In this process, while retinol is stripping away older cells, it also removes already young, healthy cells with. When mis or overused, this can cause long-term damage due to the exhaustion of your stem-cells pool, and raise skin inflammation levels. OS-01 is fundamentally different and was specifically designed to treat the root cause of skin aging, while retinol targets the symptoms. Instead of stripping your skin of all cells, OS-01 selectively targets the older and dysfunctional cells in the skin, without disturbing your young, healthy cells to keep your skin healthy. With this approach, OS-01 is more effective in improving your skin health long-term with no side-effects.   If you would like to combine your retinol products with OS-01, we suggest using retinol 2-3 times a week (at most) and applying OS-1 immediately after to  counteract any potential damage or side effect caused by retinoids.

    What is the shelf life of your topical supplement? How should it be stored?

    Our topical supplement has a shelf life of 16 months. OS-01 should be stored at room temperature and out of direct sunlight?

    Is your packaging recyclable?

    We are working diligently towards making our packaging 100% recyclable. Currently, once you have finished using our product, you can request a free shipping label to return the empty packaging to us. Also, we have partnered with Zero Carbon to offset our carbon footprint to zero! Stay tuned for more updates on our sustainability goals!

Science Behind Product

    What is skinspan?

    Skinspan refers to the length of time that your skin is healthy. Our mission is to extend your skinspan by optimizing skin health on a molecular level and increasing skin strength!

    How is your product different from a regular moisturizer?

    Our topical supplement contains a proprietary peptide, OS-01, that not only will nourish your skin, but it will also proactively extend your skin health on a molecular and external level.

    Why is OS-01 delivered topically?

    Topical delivery allows for our peptide to be applied to a specific area of skin to maximize penetration and efficacy. In the lab, we measure how OS-01 affects both the dermis and epidermis specifically. More importantly, ingestible supplements often degrade in stomach acid and therefore have no direct effect on the skin, but when applied topically there can be real (and measurable) effects.

    What current research are you working on?

    Due to competitive reasons, we cannot share the research we are currently working on.  When we finish our research, we will announce any findings and concluded studies in our marketing emails/newsletters.

    Is there any human data available on OS-01? Has it been published?

    While we haven’t published any of our clinical data in a scientific journal yet, we have completed a clinical study with 22 patients where we found significantly positive data that OS-01 can improve the skin barrier, texture, hydration, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles. We also have an ongoing clinical study where we are looking at OS-01’s ability to reduce the skin’s biological age over 6 months time. We can’t wait to share the results!

    I’ve read everything on your website, where can I go for more information?

    Being scientists, we understand always being on the lookout for more information. We have two publications where we dive more into our technology and data we have fathered on OS-01. To learn more about how we developed MolClock, the first skin-specific API used to measure the biological age of thes skin, check it out here. Looking for more on OS-01, give this publication a look!

The good news is that our product has not been shown to have adverse reactions with other products, so you can safely incorporate it into your current routine without any additional changes.

    Is OS-01 safe to use while pregnant/breastfeeding?

    Our topical supplement is as safe and effective as can be. We have rigorously tested it’s safety on various skin types, however, we have not tested it on pregnant or breastfeeding individuals. Because of this, we recommend those who are pregnant or breastfeeding show our ingredients list to your doctor or health care provider to confirm before using.

    While OS-01 is safe to use, we recommend it for all adults over the age of 18.
