Exosomes are more than a trend, they represent a bridge between regenerative medicine and anti-aging technology. In cosmetics, they’re used to stimulate collagen and tighten loose skin, but getting your hands on exosome-infused products wasn’t exactly convenient—until now. SickScience, a biotech-led brand featuring exosome-based serums, has just arrived at Ulta Beauty.
The brand, founded by scientists Merve Yildirim-Canpolat, PhD, and Polen Koçak-Denizci, PhD, recently announced a partnership with the retailer that includes a full in-store roll-out on February 22. The unveiling will start at 757 locations in the U.S., but good news if you’re an online shopper: SickScience’s serums are already available to shop now at UltaBeauty.com.
SickScience isn’t your average beauty brand. Founded on extensive research, clinical studies and high-performance ingredients, the co-founders’ backgrounds began in genetics and bioengineering, which led to research on regenerative medicinal treatments. It was there they discovered the power of exosomes, and thus, the brand’s proprietary NX35 technology was born. NX35 works by targeting specific cells to deliver coded messages and boost cell-to-cell communication. It mimics the natural function of the cells in our bodies, sending signals to the areas of concern. Plus, it’s vegan and 100-percent plant-derived.
NX35 powers SickScience’s signature and award-winning ShapeShift Firming Serum ($64), a serum that claims to sculpts and lift the jawline and neck area, PowerCycle Scalp Treatment ($64) to support hair growth, DropOff Body Sculpting Serum ($52) and the brand new NetWork Rich Concentrated Serum, which the brand promises brightens skin, refines texture and minimizes pores.
The timing of SickScience’s partnership with Ulta Beauty feels feels spot on as major retailers are investing heavily in the explosion of longevity-focused skin-care, with exosomes front and center.
