With the combined power of social media, headlines, and influence, it seems that there is no shortage of viral beauty brands out in the market today. However, not just anyone can create a truly trustworthy skincare line. You need expertise and knowledge to gain the trust of your customers and show them the results that they are looking for.
With 27 years of experience in beauty and dermatology, Dr Mary Ellen Luchetti decided to fill a void in the beauty industry. As a board-certified dermatologist herself, she noticed that she had trouble finding products to prescribe to her patients. There simply weren’t enough products that she could trust on the market. She longed to give her patients skincare that would deliver on their claims and bring visible results. So, Dr Luchetti took matters into her own hands and created VouPre.
Here, we introduce you to Dr Luchetti, the mastermind behind the barrier-breaking beauty line, VouPre.
Dr Luchetti’s Beginnings
Dr Luchetti got her start in the world of beauty and science at King’s College. In addition to graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Biology, Dr Luchetti also received notable honors as Summa cum Laude and the St. Catherine’s awardee for Best All-Around Student.
After attaining her bachelor’s degree, she continued pursuing medicine at the Temple University’s Lewis Katz School of Medicine. There, she pursued her MD, before completing her pediatric residency at the University of Connecticut.
In that same year, Dr Luchetti proceeded to complete her dermatology residency at the University of Buffalo’s Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences. Thereafter, she established her private practice and began to teach as a member of the University of New Mexico’s Dermatology Department staff. Ever in pursuit of innovations and knowledge, Dr Luchetti has also completed clinical research and contributed to medical publications.
Channeling Her Passions
Dermatology, as a practice, has to do with all things skin. However, not every dermatologist will zero in on the same concerns or issues. For Dr Luchetti, introducing new ways to treat skin conditions has always been her raison d’être. From skin cancer to aging, she is committed to combining skincare methods like medications, products, or treatments with boundless innovation.
With Dr Luchetti’s background and boundless desire to learn about skin conditions, perhaps it was only natural that she create her own approach to facial care. Channeling her knowledge and passion into something tangible, she founded VouPre, a research-backed skincare line.
Introducing VouPre
By now, you may be wondering what exactly makes VouPre special. With the abundance of brands available in the market today, it can be hard for a skincare brand to stand out, after all.
VouPre is rooted in the discoveries Dr Luchetti has made throughout her time as a board-certified dermatologist. She selects and approves the ingredients that go into VouPre products, harnessing the benefits of ingredients such as vitamin E and Cannabis Sativa oil to create the best skincare blends possible.
Through VouPre, Dr Luchetti has created four main skincare collections. These are:
The Basic Collection
The most extensive out of all VouPre’s collections, the Basic Collection is comprised of ten different products. As the collection’s name suggests, these products are the ultimate skincare starter pack. With simple, straightforward ingredient lists, these are the formulations you know you can rely on for results.
Some of the bestsellers in the VouPre Basic Collection include:
- The Deep Renewal Facial Peel
- The Ultra Day Moisturizer
- The Ageless Solution Syringe
Let’s discuss each.
Deep Renewal Facial Peel
Dermatologists like Dr Luchetti find that exfoliation is one of the most overlooked skincare steps. It’s easy to fall into the charm of serums and moisturizers, but it’s important to remember that exfoliating regularly can help those products seep into the skin better.
The Deep Renewal Facial Peel from VouPre does just that — and then some. With gentle exfoliants, this product smoothens and unclogs the skin, revealing a brighter and clearer complexion. Because dirt and deep-seated debris are also shed along with dead skin cells, this also contributes to cleaner skin.
Because the Deep Renewal Facial Peel leaves the skin feeling soft and refreshed, it can be tempting to use it daily. However, one thing that dermatologists like Dr Luchetti stress is this: exfoliating products must be used sparingly. Using this product once or twice a week is more than enough to improve your skin’s look and feel.
Over-exfoliating — whether through physical or chemical methods — can deal more damage than one might think. If you suspect that your skin may be damaged by over-exfoliating, here are some symptoms to look out for:
- Irritation
- Redness
- Burning sensation
- Increased sensitivity
- Small, bumpy breakouts
If you notice one or more of these traits, it may be a good idea to temporarily part ways with your exfoliation. You should avoid exposing your skin to anything harsh, allowing it to recuperate with the help of soothing skincare products.
Ultra Day Moisturizer
This skin-smoothing moisturizer created by Dr Luchetti is one such product that can help calm the feeling of overly exfoliated skin. The Ultra Day Moisturizer from the VouPre Basic Collection boosts the skin’s moisture levels without leaving it feeling oily or greasy.
With ingredients like sodium hyaluronate, hydrolyzed oat protein, and vitamin E, this smoothens, softens, and hydrates the feel of the skin all at once. Even better, because this moisturizer is formulated for daytime use, it layers well under sunscreen and makeup. No pilling here!
Ageless Solution Syringe
One of the key areas of dermatology that Dr Luchetti has long been devoted to studying is anti-aging. While aging itself is inevitable, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and having a reliable skincare routine can help keep the visible signs of aging at bay for longer.
The Ageless Solution Syringe is one of the bestselling products in the VouPre Basic Collection. Despite being a non-invasive product, the innovative packaging makes it easy to dispense a controlled amount of product onto specific areas of the face. This is especially useful for targeting the appearance of specific wrinkles or crow’s feet.
However, the packaging is not the only noteworthy thing about this product. The ingredients that lie within it are just as impressive. To holistically target the visible signs of aging, Dr Luchetti formulated this product with a mix of humectants and emollients.
Humectants like Sodium Hyaluronate and Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 attract water to the skin, while emollients like cucumber extract and sweet almond oil soften the feel of the skin’s surface. Together, these ingredients leave the skin visibly smoother and healthier-looking.
In addition to providing instant results, this formula also improves the appearance of the skin in the long run.
The Aqua Collection
Dr Luchetti makes skincare simpler with the Aqua Collection from VouPre. Made up of a trio of products that target dehydration, the Aqua Collection is formulated with some of the most potent humectants to quench the skin’s thirst.
The first step in the collection is the Aqua Melting Mask, a ten-minute mask that leaves the skin feeling supple and moisturized. Those who struggle with dryness may feel a tight sensation post-cleanse, and the Aqua Melting Mask helps relieve that sensation with a cocktail of fruit extracts. In addition to botanicals, it also contains vitamins to leave your skin feeling its best.
Like the other triple-step collections from VouPre, the Aqua Collection comes with a handy microneedle roller. The perfect supplement to a short yet effective regimen, microneedling can help the skin by reducing the appearance of fine lines, dark marks, and pores. It can also make the skin look tighter and more toned. Ideally used after the Aqua Melting Mask and before the rest of the products in the Aqua Collection, microneedle rollers can also increase skincare absorption.
After microneedling the skin, Dr Luchetti prescribes applying a few drops of the Aqua Hydration Serum. As the name suggests, this product hydrates the skin deeply, alleviating discomfort and dryness. When used after microneedling, the Aqua Hydration Serum can reach the deeper layers of the skin for longer-lasting results. This is a serum that’ll make your skin feel ultra-hydrated.
To seal all the previous steps in, the Aqua Collection wraps up with the Aqua Nano Cream. Some of the ingredients that help enrich this lightweight yet moisture-boosting formula include:
- Sunflower seed oil
- Avocado oil
- Soybean oil
- Seaweed extract
The Cannabis Collection
Channeling Dr Luchetti’s passion for skincare solutions, the VouPre Cannabis Collection features Cannabis Sativa seed oil as its central component. Celebrated for its diverse benefits, Cannabis Sativa seed oil is one of the multitasking ingredients that Dr Luchetti highlights in VouPre’s products. Some of the benefits of this wonder ingredient include:
- Reduces the appearance of excess oil and shine
- Moisturizes and smoothens the skin
- Reduces the look of wrinkles and lines, contributing to younger-looking skin
- Soothes the feel of the skin
Dr Luchetti highlights these benefits in the Cannabis Collection. A three-product routine supplemented by a 0.2mm microneedle roller, the VouPre Cannabis Collection makes the skin look and feel better with consistent use. Plus, it’s easy to use too!
To gain the full benefits of the collection, start with the Cannabis Caviar Transforming Mask. With the unique ability to metamorphose before your eyes, this mask transforms from a shade of white to a rich, lush gold. This is a signal that the mask has done its work and is ready to be rinsed off. In its wake, the Cannabis Caviar Transforming Mask leaves the skin looking visibly tighter and smoother.
The next steps in the collection are the Cannabis Facial Serum and the Cannabis Silk Cream. A serum and moisturizer combination formulated to even out the look of the skin’s tone and texture, both products sink easily into the skin and leave it looking more radiant.
The Thermal Collection
A testament to Dr Luchetti’s interest in innovative treatments and techniques, she incorporates heat therapy into the VouPre Thermal Collection. Thermotherapy has been used since ancient times for various ailments. Taking that long-revered concept and applying it to skincare, Dr Luchetti created the three-product Thermal Collection.
The collection is composed of the following steps:
- The Detoxifying Thermal Mask, a quick fifteen-minute pick-me-up for the skin. Infusing thermotherapy, this mask relaxes and rejuvenates the feel of the skin as it gradually warms up.
- The Perfecting Facial Serum, a solution loaded with moisturizing fruit extracts. Formulated to be used along with the Detoxifying Thermal Mask, this serum boosts the intensity of the mask’s warmth.
- The Corrective Facial Cream, a rich and luxurious moisturizer that soothes and smooths the feel of the skin after masking.
