Beyond the Surface w/ Marissa Allegretto – Medical Grade Skincare?
- Beyond the Surface
In today’s episode, Marissa pulls back the curtain on one of the skincare industry’s most misleading marketing claims: “medical-grade” skincare. The truth? There is no government agency or regulatory body that officially defines or certifies a product as “medical grade.” The term is simply a marketing phrase used to create the perception of higher quality or clinical authority. While many products labeled this way can still be effective, the phrase itself carries no formal standard, testing requirement, or regulatory definition. Marissa explains how consumers can look past the label, focus on ingredients and formulation, and make smarter, more informed skincare decisions.
