Got a question?

Who is the skin test for?

Anyone who wishes to improve and maintain the health of their skin. Quizzes or questionnaires cannot define skin types or conditions. Now for the first time, customers have full skin microbiome and metobolome cluster testing available.

The test results help our customers improve skin hydration and lipid content, decrease inflammation, slow aging, promote repair, and protect against pathogens. Skin swab analyses can help with a wide range of complaints, including dry or oily skin conditions, redness, sensitivity, breakouts, acne, dermatitis, or other skin conditions.

What does the skin test detect?

It will tell you your skin’s microscopic content in detail. It can help evaluate if it’s balanced and precisely what steps you can take to improve your skin’s quality and youthfulness. We give you practical advice on various environmental, lifestyle, dietary, and specific health measures that can help boost your skin’s health. You will know everything about your skin to make informed decisions and understand your skin better. We will provide further guidance on what skincare products, ingredients, and preservatives to use or avoid, regardless of brand.

How do you do the testing?

The analyses are done by our highly skilled scientists in world-class genome sequencing facilities using state-of-the-art technology, with a track record of over 10 years of providing high-quality genomic profiling services.

How long do I wait for my results?

Analysis typically takes between 15 to 20 days once we receive your skin swab sample. You can then download your results.

What's included in the price?

The price includes Skin Testing Kit, skin sample analyses, and reports. The analyses of your skin microbial and metabolic profiles will come with a link to an offer to purchase a customized skinara skincare product that matches your skin’s needs.

Can I order custom made products?

Yes, based on the test results, we offer a bespoke service to formulate serums in 2 volume options: 30ml (1 fl.oz) at $79 or 50ml (1.69 fl.oz) at $89 that are specific to your skin’s unique needs, and individual microbiome profile, lifestyle, and environment. Our personalized serums formulated just for you, are supercharged to boost your skin’s microflora to its optimum.

 

All Skinara’s products are microbiome friendly.

Can I track my progress?

Yes. We recommend you recheck your skin’s improvements to see the results your skin is making. The costs of the tracking will be fully redeemable from your orders. You will receive the link for retesting on your results email.

We also strongly recommend continuing with our suggested regimen over time, to maintain your skin’s health at its best. Our recommendation is for customers to repeat the skin test again after 3 months and then 6 months to measure progress. These skin health tracking costs are taken off subsequent product purchases.

All Skinara’s products are microbiome friendly.

What do I do first?

Just order the easy-to-use skin testing kit on this page and we’ll send it to you. Take the skin swab sample at home as per the instructions and post it back to us.

How do I contact you if I have a question?

Please use the Contact Us form on our ‘FAQ and contact‘ page.

Is my personal data safe?

Yes. We have very robust data protection systems in place to ensure the total privacy of any customer information. We do not sell or share any customer data. Every customer’s test sample is anonymously processed by our lab using a unique identification number, not their name. The results are then shared securely with the corresponding individual customer only.

Can I return it for a refund?

The Skin Testing Kit or serums are customized to individual orders and are associated with high laboratory costs. Hence, refunds or returns are not available.

What is in the wetting solution?

Deionised, sterilised water

Which countries do you ship to?

We currently ship Skin Testing Kit to Australia and New Zealand.

Easy to use Skin Testing Kit

Preparation: the night before you use the swab, take off all makeup and don’t use any skincare. Take the swab first thing the next morning, before washing your face (even with water), showering, applying makeup, creams or any other cosmetics.  Important: not suitable while using topical steroids or antibiotics. Wait at least 7 days before taking any skin testing kit.

Identify the collection tube in the swab kit

1. Open the pack and locate the collection tube in your skin testing kit. Clearly write your name and the date on its label.

Carefully open the swab packet

2. Locate the swab pack and very carefully open it from the handle end, making sure not to touch the swab tip.

Ensure the swab tip is not contaminated

3. The swab tip should not be in contact with any surfaces, before or after being applied to your cheeks.
