FAQs
Are your products aesthetician grade?
Absolutely — Conscience Designs was built with professional standards at the core.
Are Conscience Designs products safe for sensitive skin?
Yes — most products are formulated to be gentle - without harsh irritants, soothing botanicals, barrier-supportive ingredients and non-irritating actives. If you have extremely reactive skin, we recommend patch-testing first, especially with:
• Complexion Perfection Lotion (contains Vitamin A + Peroxide)
• Any product containing fragrance or essential oils
Do any products contain steroids?
No. None of our formulations include hydrocortisone or any corticosteroids.
Are your products vegan?
Our formulations contain no animal-derived ingredients and align with a conscious, plant-forward approach.
Are your products fragrance-free?
Some products contain natural botanicals, essential oils, or light plant derived fragrance - gentle, minimal and skin-safe. If you have high sensitivity, we can recommend:
• Hydro-Infusion Peptide Cleanser
• Invisible Hydration
Can I use Complexion Perfection Lotion during the day?
It’s best used at night. Because it contains Vitamin A + peroxide, it may increase sun sensitivity. If chosen to use during the day, Always pair with sunscreen during daytime.
Are your sunscreens mineral or chemical?
Our formulas are hybrid - a combination of mineral and chemical sunscreen filters.
Are your products pregnancy-safe?
Avoid Complexion Perfection Lotion because it contains Vitamin A (retinyl palmitate). Everything else is generally safe but always consult with a healthcare provider.
How often should I use Cucumber Bliss 2-in-1?
Cucumber Bliss is a gentle exfoliating cleanser, but it’s still active care. This product contains gentle exfoliating esters. We recommend using it no more than 1–2 times per week for dry/sensitive skin and 2-3 times a week for normal/oily skin, preferably in the evening. On those nights, you can use it instead of your regular cleanser, then follow with toner and moisturizer. If your skin is sensitive, start with once a week and adjust only if your skin tolerates it well. It is not intended for daily use.
- Rosacea-prone skin: you may need to avoid exfoliation or get specific advice from a dermatologist, as it can cause redness and irritation.

Absolutely. All formulas are crafted with plant-derived and clean synthetic ingredients, and we do not use any animal-derived ingredients.
