L’Oréal today introduced a prototype of the latest innovation from the L’Oréal Technology Incubator. My Skin Track pH by La Roche-Posay is the wearable sensor and companion app to easily measure personal skin pH levels and create customized product regimens to better care for skin.
My Skin Track pH has been honored with a CES 2019 Innovation Award in the Wearable Technology Products category.
The sensor was co-developed with L’Oréal’s skincare brand La Roche-Posay, which works closely with dermatologists to develop safe and effective skincare products and is committed to bringing scientific progress directly to consumers.
“The scientific and medical communities have long known the link between skin pH levels and common skin concerns that millions of people experience every day,” says Guive Balooch, Global Vice President of the L’Oréal Technology Incubator, an arm of L’Oréal’s Research and Innovation.
“Our goal is to use this advanced technology to empower consumers with meaningful information about their skin, so that they can find the products that are right for their individual needs.
At L’Oréal, we know that health is the future of beauty and we are committed to leveraging technology to bring powerful insights and solutions to our consumers.”
A small, thin, flexible sensor, My Skin Track pH represents the next frontier in personalized skincare technology for L’Oréal, the global beauty leader.
As the first wearable to measure individual skin pH levels using microfluidic technology, it captures trace amounts of sweat from skin pores through a network of micro-channels, providing an accurate pH reading within 15 minutes.
