Our work includes writing about evergreen topics related to beauty, skincare, and haircare, coverage of the latest news and trends, product reviews, and updates to existing content to ensure it reflects and relates to the latest scientific research. All posts on Women’s Concepts are created considering the following publishing principles:
Whenever we cover a topic, whether it’s informational content or product reviews, we ignore all marketing claims. We don’t let us get influenced by advertisers’ claims regardless of the references and sources they come from. Unfortunately, companies use claims to sell their products, such as:
Women’s Concepts is a source of consistently high-quality information that you can trust. This is possible due to our close professional relationship with dermatologists, cosmeticians, and makeup artists, who we interview for expert approval. Whenever you read about mixing ingredients, skincare routines, and product recommendations, you can trust that they’re safe and accredited by skillful professionals. With research upon ingredients, devices, and techniques advancing consistently, change is inevitable. With this in mind, we always make sure our posts go through multiple reviews to stay up to date with the latest scientific discoveries.
We’re aware that safety is the most critical concern for everyone. And since cosmetics use various ingredients, from alcohols, fragrances to preservatives, it’s our duty to assure that none of the products we recommend to our readers put their health or skin condition in danger. Cosmetics contain active ingredients that don’t just make the skin look different, but they actually create changes in the skin.
Every article on Women’s Concepts is written with only one intention: to help our readers by offering transparent answers to all questions surrounding their concerns. Our content is accurate, complete, and up-to-date according to the latest studies and discoveries in the world of beauty and skincare. We never hide the drawbacks of a product, ingredient, or treatment just for the sake of promoting them.
Our responsibility is to provide honest opinions to our audience and treat everyone with respect, regardless of their culture, race, ethnicity, religion, sex, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, physical or mental ability, or any other characteristics. Diversity is core to our values and dedication.
Our team includes writers that have been carefully chosen based on their professional experience, writing, and researching skills. We are cautious with the content shared on Women’s Concepts. Hence we are taking all the precautions measures to ensure our writers are all well trained and educated about beauty and skincare.
Our main mission is to provide accurate and transparent information that uncovers the naked truth. The articles published on Women’s Concepts not only rely on our team’s personal experience and judgment but are also profoundly researched, with every bit of data coming from trusted sources. All statements and claims have clear and legit references, such as PubMed, The National Center for Biotechnology Information, ResearchGate, and Karger. Whenever possible, we cite research done on humans. However, if a particular topic is not backed by research on humans, we use research on cultured cells or artificial skin models as a reference if relevant to the topic. When we do that, we make sure to mention it clearly. Although results from cultured cells or artificial skin research do not entirely apply to the human system, the findings are useful to have a better understanding of certain topics.
We also interview experts like dermatologists, chemical chemists, cosmetologists, and makeup artists to get their insights on the information shared in our articles.
The Women’s Concepts Expert Review Board comprises board-certified dermatologists specializing in both cosmetic and medical dermatology, cosmetic chemists, makeup artists, and other field experts. They are not exclusively working for Women’s Concepts but help us review articles from time to time. While all of our experts have medical certificates from prestigious universities to certify their experience and knowledge, some of them are members of academic societies such as the American Academy of Dermatology, like Dr. Lilly-Rose Paraskevas (FAAD), or The Philippine Dermatological Society, like Dr. Aznaida T. Pandapatan (DPDS). We are constantly trying to bring new members to our experts’ team to increase our diversity by covering as many medical specializations as possible.
When you see “Expert-Approved” at the top of an article (just above the first paragraph), you’ll know the content information has been reviewed and discussed with one of our expert review board members, whether it’s about how to prevent transepidermal water loss, anti-inflammatory skincare ingredients, or how you should moisturize oily skin. Their role is to make sure the information is accurate, complete, and relates to current science and data studies. If they notice something is missing, incorrect, or misleading, they’ll sound the alarm to our editorial team. In this case, we’ll verify the content and update the information according to their indications after we double-check all the facts. Meet all our experts here.
